Which graph represents the solution of −2⁢x≤4⁢(x−6)?

Answers

Answer:

See attachments.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given inequality:

[tex]-2x\leq 4(x-6)[/tex]

Solve the inequality by first expanding the brackets:

[tex]\implies -2x\leq 4x-24[/tex]

Subtract 4x from both sides:

[tex]\implies -2x-4x\leq 4x-24-4x[/tex]

[tex]\implies -6x\leq -24[/tex]

Divide both sides by -6 (remembering to reverse the inequality sign as we are dividing by a negative number).

[tex]\implies \dfrac{-6x}{-6}\leq \dfrac{-24}{-6}[/tex]

[tex]\implies x\geq 4[/tex]

When graphing inequalities on a coordinate plane:

< or > : dashed line.≤ or ≥ : solid line.< or ≤ : shade under the line.> or ≥ : shade above the line.

Therefore, to graph the given inequality on a coordinate plane:

Draw a solid line at x = 4.Shade above the line (i.e. shade to the right of the line).

(See attachment 1).

When graphing inequalities on a number line:

< or > : open circle.≤ or ≥ : closed circle.< or ≤ : shade to the left of the circle.> or ≥ : shade to the right of the circle..

The equation 3x + 2y = 120 models the number of passengers who can sit in a train car, where isthe number of adults and y is the number of children. Explain what the 2- and y-intercepts mean.

Answers

Explanation:

Given the equation that models the number of passengers who can sit in a car expressed as 3x + 2y = 120

x is the number of adults

y is the number of children

The x-intercept is the point where y is zero i.e. the number of adults when there is no number of children.

when y = 0

3x + 2(0) = 120

3x = 120

x = 120/3

x = 40

This means that there will be 40 adults if there are no children

The y-intercept is the point where x is zero i.e. the number of children when there is no number of adults.

when x = 0

3(0) + 2y = 120

2y = 120

y = 120/2

y = 60

This means that there will be 60children if there are no adults

in the sophomore class at Summit High School the number of students taking French is 2/3 of the number taking Spanish. how many students are studying each language if the total number of students in French and Spanish is 310 ?This is Homework

Answers

From the information given in the statement let be

[tex]\begin{gathered} f=\frac{2}{3}s\text{ (1)} \\ f+s=310\text{ (2)} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Where

*f: number of students taking a French class

So, you have a system of linear equations, which you can use the substitution method.

To do this, replace the value of the first equation in the second equation and solve for s

Answers

You have G(x) = x².

take into account that G(x) can be considered as an streched of the F(X), moreover, F(x) is a translation of G(x) downward 3 units. If G(x) is an strech of F(x), then, G(x) is multipled by a constant lower than 1.

sandy made 8 friendship bracelets. she gave 1/8 to her best friend and 5/8 to her friends on the tennis team. write and solve an equation to find the fraction of her bracelets, b , sandy gave away1

Answers

Answer:

(3/4)b

Explanation:

• Fraction given to her best friend = 1/8

,

• Fraction given to her friends on the tennis team = 5/8

To calculate the total proportion of the bracelet she gave away, we add:

[tex]\begin{gathered} (\frac{1}{8}+\frac{5}{8})b \\ =\frac{6}{8}b \\ =\frac{3\times2}{4\times2}b \end{gathered}[/tex]

Reducing the fraction to its lowest form by canceling out 2 gives:

To find the slope, use the formula below:

[tex]m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]

Thus, we have the slope as:

[tex]m=\frac{-1-(-2)}{0-2}=\frac{-1+2}{0-2}=\frac{1}{-2}=-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Input 2 for x, -2 for y, and -1/2 for b to find b.

[tex]\begin{gathered} -2=-\frac{1}{2}(2)+b \\ \\ -2=-1+b \\ \\ -2+1=b \\ \\ -1=b \end{gathered}[/tex]

find the measures of the angles of a right triangle where one of the acute angles is *3.5* times the other

Answers

Lets draw a picture of our problem:

where x denotes the measure of the base angle.

Since interior angles of any triangle add up to 180, we have

[tex]x+3.5x+90=180[/tex]

which gives

[tex]4.5x+90=180[/tex]

By subtracting 90 to both sides, we have

[tex]\begin{gathered} 4.5x=180-90 \\ 4.5x=90 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Finally, by dividing both sides by 4.5, we get

[tex]\begin{gathered} x=\frac{90}{4.5} \\ x=20 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Then, the base angle measures 20 degrees and the upper angle measure

Therefore, the searched angles measure

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Here, we want to get the values in the segments

a) Here we would have to open up the brackets

Now, to do this, we are going to use the distributive property

By using the distributive property, we will be able to open up the brackets

Doing this, we can get the values in the brackets

So the answer here is distributive property

b) Here, we have

14 = -y after combining the like terms

The correct answer here is the subtraction property of equality

We simply subtract 3y from both sides of the equation to arrive at this answer

c) -14 = y

We have the multiplication property of equality

The reason for this is that we multiplied both sides by -1 to arrive at this answer

d) y = -14

This is the symmetric property of equality

We have this here because if two values are equal on both sides, we can switch each to the opposite sides and still retain the same equality values

Which is the equivalent of 6 14’ 48’’ written in decimal form Round to the nearest thousandth of a degree A. 6.145 B. 6.367 C. 6.247 D. 6.313

Answers

Answer

Step-by-step explanation

First, we need to convert the 48'' into minutes. Using the conversion factor: 1' = 60'', we get:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 48^{\prime}^{\prime}=48^{\prime}^{\prime}\cdot\frac{1^{\prime}}{60^{\prime}^{\prime}} \\ 48^{\prime\prime}=\frac{48}{60}^{\prime} \\ 48^{\prime}^{\prime}=0.8^{\prime} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Then, 14 minutes and 48 seconds are equivalent to 14 + 0.8 = 14.8 minutes. To convert this amount of minutes into degrees we need to use the conversion factor 1° = 60', as follows:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 14.8^{\prime}=14.8^{\prime}\cdot\frac{1\degree}{60^{\prime}^{\prime}} \\ 14.8^{\prime}=\frac{14.8}{60}\degree \\ 14.8^{\prime}=0.247\operatorname{\degree} \end{gathered}[/tex]

In consequence, 6° 14’ 48’’ is equivalent to 6 + 0.247 = 6.247°

please help ………………. …………. ………… i already have the answer for part A but im having trouble with Parts B and C

Answers

In part B we must perform the following operation:

[tex](5a^3+4a^2-3a+2)+(a^3-3a^2+3a-9)[/tex]

The key here is to group the terms according to the power of a they have:

[tex](5a^3+4a^2-3a+2)+(a^3-3a^2+3a-9)=(5a^3+a^3)+(4a^2-3a^2)+(-3a+3a)+(2-9)[/tex]

Then, we can use the distributive property of the multiplication but in reverse:

[tex]b\cdot a+c\cdot a=(b+c)\cdot a[/tex]

If we do this in each of the terms between parenthesis we get:

[tex]\begin{gathered} (5a^3+a^3)+(4a^2-3a^2)+(-3a+3a)+(2-9)= \\ =(5+1)a^3+(4-3)a^2+(-3+3)a-7 \\ (5+1)a^3+(4-3)a^2+(-3+3)a-7=6a^3+a^2-7 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Then the answer for part B is:

[tex]6a^3+a^2-7[/tex]

In part C we must simplify:

[tex](4y^3-2y+9)-(2y^3-3y^2+4y+7)[/tex]

Here is important to remember that a negative sign before a parenthesis means that you have to change the sign of all the terms inside it. Then we have:

[tex](4y^3-2y+9)-(2y^3-3y^2+4y+7)=4y^3-2y+9-2y^3+3y^2-4y-7[/tex]

Now we can do the same thing we did in part B, we group the terms according to the powers of y:

[tex]4y^3-2y+9-2y^3+3y^2-4y-7=(4y^3-2y^3)+3y^2+(-2y-4y)+(9-7)[/tex]

Then we apply the distributive property in reverse:

[tex]\begin{gathered} (4y^3-2y^3)+3y^2+(-2y-4y)+(9-7)=(4-2)y^3+3y^2+(-2-4)y+2 \\ (4-2)y^3+3y^2+(-2-4)y+2=2y^3+3y^2-6y+2 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Then the answer for part C is:
