If you’re good at algebra could somebody help me please?

Answers

Answer:

a). f(0) = 7

b). f([tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]) = 6

c). f(-5) = 22

d). x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is f(x) = -3x + 7

a). For x = 0

   f(0) = -3(0) + 7

         = 0 + 7

         = 7

b). For x = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

    f([tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]) = [tex](-3)(\frac{1}{3})+7[/tex]

          = -1 + 7

          = 6

c). For x = (-5)

   f(-5) = -3(-5) + 7

          = 15 + 7

          = 22

d). For f(x) = (-20)

    -20 = -3x + 7

     3x = 20 + 7

     3x = 27

       x = 9

-3 3/8 - 7/8

Answers

Answer:

The answer is

[tex] - \frac{17}{4} \: \: or \: \: - 4 \frac{1}{4} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] - 3 \frac{3}{8} - \frac{7}{8} [/tex]

First of all convert the mixed number to an improper fraction

We have

[tex] - 3 \frac{3}{8} = \frac{27}{8} [/tex]

So we have

[tex] - \frac{27}{8} - \frac{7}{8} [/tex]

Since they have the same denominator we can subtract them directly

We have

[tex] - \frac{27}{8} - \frac{7}{8} = - \frac{34}{8} [/tex]

Reduce the fraction with 2

We have the final answer as

[tex] - \frac{17}{4} \: \: or \: \: - 4 \frac{1}{4} [/tex]

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 10 inches long. One of the legs is 2 inches longer than the other one. If x is the length of the shorter leg, what is the equation

Answers

Answer:

The equation is

X²+2x-48 = 0

Shorter one is 6 inches

Other side= 8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for a right angle triangle normally is

A² = B² + C²

Where A = hypotenuse

Then B and C are the order sides of the triangle.

This time

Hypotenuse= 10 inches

The shorter one is X

While the other one is X+2

The equation

10²= x² +(x+2)²

100= x² + x² + 4x +4

100 - 4 = 2x² +4x

96= 2x² +4x

48 = x² +2x

X²+2x-48 = 0

Solving for x

X² +8x-6x-48= 0

X(x+8)-6(x+8)=0

(X-6)(x+8)= 0

X= 6 or x= -8

Definitely x is posiy

So x= 6

Shorter one is 6 inches

Other side= 6+2= 8 inches

Solve (2^2x+1)-9(2^x)+4=0​

Answers

Answer:

x₁ = - 1

x₂ = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

2²ˣ⁺¹ - 9ₓ2ˣ + 4 = 0

2²ˣₓ2 - 9ₓ2ˣ + 4 = 0

2ˣ = n

2n² - 9n + 4 = 0

2n² - n - 8n + 4 = 0

n(2n - 1) - 4(2n - 1) = 0

(2n - 1)(n -4) = 0

2n - 1 = 0 => n₁ = 1/2

n - 4 = 0 => n₂ = 4

2ˣ = 1/2 => 2ˣ = 2⁻¹ => x₁ = - 1

2ˣ = 4 => 2ˣ = 2² => x₂ = 2

One side of a triangle is 8 feet longer than the second side. The third side is 4 feet longer than the second side. The perimeter of a triangle is 36 feet. Find the length of each side.

Answers

Answer:

The second side is 8.

The third side is 12.

The last side is 16.  

Step-by-step explanation:

The third side is 12 because it is 8+4. Given these facts, it is 20 feet so far. And the last side of the triangle is 16, for it is 8+8. So, 16+20 is 36. Hope thsi helped.

three angles are adjacent to each other and form 140.the largest angle is twice the smaller angle and the angle which is middle size is 24 more than the smallest. find the angles​

Answers

The angles are 29°, 53° and 58°

Answer:

Smallest: 29, Middle: 53, Largest: 58

Step-by-step explanation:

We can represent the angles in this problem using an equation.

We'll use x to represent the smallest angle, and work out other ways to represent the others.

As the largest angle is twice that of the smaller angle, we can represent the largest angle as 2x as 2x is two times x.

The middle angle is 24 more than the smallest, so we can represent that one as x + 24, since it is 24 more than the smallest.

Now we have our angles all represented with x:

Smallest angle = x

Middle = x+24

Largest = 2x

We know that they all add together to 140 so our equation is:

x+2x+(x+24) = 140

Now we can solve for x!

We can remove the brackets (addition does not change the terms) and combine the terms:

x+2x+x+24=140

4x+24=140

Next we move the 24 to the other side so we can solve for x:

4x + 24 - 24 = 140 - 24

4x = 116

Finally we divide both sides by 4:

x=29

The smallest angle is 29!

Now we can use our representations to find the other angles:

Middle angle = x+24, therefore it is 29+24 = 53

Largest angle = 2x therefore it is 2*29 = 58

58+53+29=140 so we have successfully worked out our angles!

Hope this helped!

Answers

Answer:

1

 The  correct option is  A

2

 The  correct option is  C

3

 The  correct option is  C

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The proportion of the winning bid from a regular bidder is  [tex]P(R) = 0.60[/tex]

   The proportion of the winning bid from a occasional bidders is  [tex]P(O) = 0.30[/tex]

     The proportion of the winning bid from a first- time bidders is  [tex]P(F) = 0.10[/tex]

    The proportion of  satisfactory jobs done by a regular bidders is [tex]P(R|S) = 0.90[/tex]

The proportion of  satisfactory jobs done by a occasional bidders is    [tex]P(O|S) = 0.80[/tex]

The proportion of  satisfactory jobs done by a first- time bidders is   [tex]P(F|S) = 0.60[/tex]

Generally the probability that a job will be done by a first-time bidder and be satisfactory is mathematically represented as

          [tex]P(F n S) = P(F) * P(S|F)[/tex]

=>        [tex]P(F n S) = 0.10 * 0.60[/tex]

=>       [tex]P(F n S) = 0.060[/tex]

Generally the probability that a job will be satisfactory is mathematically represented as

       [tex]P(S) = 0.60 * 0.90 + 0.30 *0.80+ 0.10*0.60[/tex]

=>     [tex]P(S) = 0.84 [/tex]

Generally given that a job is satisfactory, what is the probability that it was done by a regular bidder is mathematically evaluated as

              [tex]P( S | R) = \frac{0.90* 0.60}{0.60}[/tex]

               [tex]P( S | R) = 0.6429[/tex]

The probability of rolling a number less than 3 on a number cube 2/6. Jennifer rolls a number cube 60 times how many times should jennifer except to roll a number less than 3

Answers

Answer:

20 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Probability of rolling a number less than 3 on a number cube:

Required outcome = (1, 2)

Total possible outcomes = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6)

Required outcome / Total possible outcomes

= 2 /6

= 1/3

Hence, if number cube is rolled 60 times, number of times a number less than 3 is expected :

(Probability of obtaining a number less than 3 in one roll × number of rolls)

= (1 / 3) × 60

= 60 / 3

= 20 times

[tex]a^-^2[/tex] is the same thing as 1/a². So, [tex]5^-^2[/tex] is 1/25. This is multiplied by 3² which is 9, so this is 9/25.

In the denominator, we have [tex]5^-^1[/tex], which is 1/5. We multiply this by 3, which is 3/5.

So, we divide 9/25 by 3/5, giving us 3/5.

Now, we raise this to the power of -2, so we flip the numerator and denominator and then square both numbers, giving us 25/9.
