solve for x 3(-x-3)+x-3=26

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {x = -19}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for the value of [tex]x[/tex]:

[tex]3(-x - 3) + x - 3 = 26[/tex]

-Use Distributive Property:

[tex]3(-x - 3) + x - 3 = 26[/tex]

[tex]3(-x ) - 9 + x - 3 = 26[/tex]

-Combine both [tex]-9[/tex] and [tex]3[/tex]:

[tex]3(-x ) - 9 + x - 3 = 26[/tex]

[tex]3(-x ) - 12 + x = 26[/tex]

-Add [tex]12[/tex] to both sides:

[tex]3(-x ) - 12 + 12 + x = 26 + 12[/tex]

[tex]3(-x) + x = 38[/tex]

-Multiply the [tex]-1[/tex] by [tex]3[/tex]:

[tex]3(-x) + x = 38[/tex]

[tex]-3x + x = 38[/tex]

-Combine both the [tex]-3x[/tex] and [tex]x[/tex]:

[tex]-3x + x = 38[/tex]

[tex]-2x = 38[/tex]

-Divide both sides by [tex]-2[/tex]:

[tex]\frac{-2x}{-2} = \frac{38}{-2}[/tex]

[tex]\boxed {x = -19}[/tex]

Therefore, the value of [tex]x[/tex] is [tex]-19[/tex].

Answer 2

 [tex]\bold{Hello!}\\\bold{Your~Answer~Is~Below!}[/tex]

______________________________

 [tex]\bold{Solution~Steps:}[/tex]

When we have a problem with parenthesis we must use distributive property:

[tex]3[/tex] × [tex]-x-3[/tex]The [tex]3[/tex] cancels out, leaving [tex]-x[/tex]

         * [tex]3(-x)-9+x-3=26[/tex]

Subtract [tex]3[/tex] from [tex]-9[/tex]:

[tex]3-(-9)=-12[/tex]

         * [tex]3(-x)-12+x=26[/tex]

Add [tex]12[/tex] to both sides:

Since [tex]-12[/tex] is negative we do the opposite of what we see, so it cancels out.  [tex]-12+12=[/tex] Cancels out[tex]26+12=38[/tex]

         * [tex]3(-x)+x=38[/tex]

Multiply [tex]3[/tex] and [tex]-1[/tex]:

In this case we have [tex]2[/tex] x's, so we need to get rid of one. We do this by turning [tex](-x)[/tex] into [tex]-1[/tex]. Then we multiply them together: [tex]3[/tex] × [tex]-1=-3[/tex]

         * [tex]-3x+x=38[/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex]-3x+x=-2x[/tex]

         * [tex]-2x=38[/tex]

Divide to get [tex]x[/tex] alone:

Divide by [tex]-2[/tex] on each side by rule of opposites: [tex]-2x[/tex] ÷ [tex]-2=x[/tex] [tex]38[/tex] ÷ [tex]-2=-19[/tex]

        [tex]\boxed{x=-19}[/tex]

Roger owes his father $15. He borrows another $25 from him. What integer represents the balance that he owes his father?

Answers

The answer is negative -40

The integer -40 represents the balance that he owes his father if Roger owes his father $15. He borrows another $25 from him.

What is an integer?

it is defined as the whole number it can be a negative whole number or a positive whole number for example 2, 4, 1, -8, 0, etc.

It is given that:

Roger owes his father $15. He borrows another $25 from him.

As we know, the number is a mathematical entity that can be used to count, measure, or name things. For example, 1, 2, 56, etc. are the numbers.

The amount Roger owes = $15

Roger borrows = $25

Total debt = -15 + (-25)

Total debt = -$40

The above integer represents the balance that he owes his father.

Thus, the integer -40 represents the balance that he owes his father if Roger owes his father $15. He borrows another $25 from him.

I  presume you won't  need this explanation now,  but just in case;

If we draw triangle MNK, as  MN = NK we know is isosceles. Now let's draw an altitude to MK so that  it splits MK into two congruent parts (5/2 = 2.5). Given M<N = 110 degrees the altitude would split the angle into two congruent angles as well (Coincidence Theorem)---- 110/2 = 55 degrees.

Now let's study the smaller triangles, and take one as an example. Remember sin(theta) = opp/hyp. Applying this we have theta as 55 degrees, the opposite side as 2.5, and the hypotenuse is yet to be found (MN);

sin(55°)= 2.5/MN,

x = 2.5/sin(55°) ≈3.052

Group of answer choices



LaTeX: g\left(x\right)=4x^2 g ( x ) = 4 x 2



LaTeX: g\left(x\right)=\left(x+4\right)^2 g ( x ) = ( x + 4 ) 2



LaTeX: g\left(x\right)=x^2+4 g ( x ) = x 2 + 4



LaTeX: g\left(x\right)=\left(x-4\right)^2 g ( x ) = ( x − 4 ) 2

Answers

Answer:

C. g(x) = x²+4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the parabola function f(x) = x²

Translating the function up by 4 means adding the constant value of +4 to the function since it's translated along the positive y axis. The resulting function g(x) will be x²+4

Hence the correct answer is g(x) = x²+4. Option C is correct.

............

28.00

Answer:

Jacob can have up to 5 guests at his graduation party because 50 - 22.50 is 27.50 and 27.50/5.50 is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

To start off you would subtract 22.50 from 50 leaving you with 27.50. From there you would account for the number of attendees. Since 27.50/5.50 equals 5 the maximum amount of guests Jacob can have at his graduation party is 5.

Charlotte works in a calling center making appointments for a local lawn care service. She earns $40 each full workday plus an additional $2 for each appointment that she schedules. Today, Charlotte needs to earn at least $75. Write an inequality to describe this situation. In two or more complete sentences, describe the solution set of this inequality and what it means for Charlotte.

Answers

x = number of appointments

y = total amount earned in dollars

The total earnings equation is y = 2x+40

The 2x is from her earning $2 per appointment. If she makes x of them, then she earns 2x dollars. This is on top of the $40 from working the full day.

She wants to earn at least $75. This means she wants to earn $75 or more.

This means,

[tex]y \ge 75\\\\2x+40 \ge 75\\\\2x \ge 75-40\\\\2x \ge 35\\\\x \ge \frac{35}{2}\\\\x \ge 17.5[/tex]

Since x is the number of appointments, and we can't have a fractional number of appointments, we must round up to x = 18. This is the lowest number of appointments she can do and earn $75 or larger.

If x = 17, then

y = 2x+40 = 2*17+40 = 34+40 = 74

which is not 75 or larger

But if x = 18, then

y = 2x+40 = 2*18+40 = 36+40 = 76

which is larger than 75, so we've cleared the hurdle.

We can say the solution set is [tex]x \ge 18[/tex] where x is a whole number. So she could book x = 18, x = 19, x = 20, x = 21, etc as the number of appointments to reach her goal.

In summary, she must schedule at least 18 appointments to earn $75 or more.

Since she makes $2 for every appointment she makes we would need to use 40+2n so she would get $2 per appointment no matter how many appointments she makes. Also, we wouldn't use an equal sign because they didn't say she needed to earn exactly $75. They said she needed to earn "at least" $75. At least means equal to or greater than ≥. So the inequality would be 2n+40≥75. PRO TIP: Any time it asks you to write an inequality you will use either <, >, ≤, or ≥ not an =.An equation uses =, an inequality uses the other symbols

Answers

Given:

Initial value of new car = $17,500

Depreciation rate = 4.6%

To find:

The value of car after 4 years.

Solution:

The exponential decay model is

[tex]y=a(1-r)^t[/tex]

where, a is initial value, r is decreasing rate and t is time in years.

Substitute a=17500, r=0.046 and t=4 in the above equation.

[tex]y=17500(1-0.046)^4[/tex]

[tex]y=17500(0.954)^4[/tex]

[tex]y=17500(0.8283111)[/tex]

[tex]y=14495.44425[/tex]

[tex]y\approx 14495.44[/tex]

The value of car after 4 years is $14495.44.

Therefore, the correct option is D.

Answer:

The average rate of change of the function [tex]f(x)=x^2-2x-5[/tex]  for interval [tex]-5\leq x\leq 6[/tex] is -1

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given function [tex]f(x)=x^2-2x-5[/tex] and we need to determine the average rate of change of the function for interval [tex]-5\leq x\leq 6[/tex]

The formula used to find average rate of change is: [tex]Average \ rate \ of \ change=\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}[/tex]

We are given b=6 and a=-5

We need to find f(b) and f(a)

Finding f(b)

Putting x= 6 to find f(b)

[tex]f(x)=x^2-2x-5\\Put \ x=6\\f(6)=(6)^2-2(6)-5\\f(6)=36-12-5\\f(6)=19[/tex]

So, f(b)=19

Now finding f(a)

Putting x= -5 to find f(a)

[tex]f(x)=x^2-2x-5\\Put \ x=-5\\f(-5)=(-5)^2-2(-5)-5\\f(-5)=25+10-5\\f(-5)=30[/tex]

So, f(a)= 30

Finding average rate of change

[tex]Average \ rate \ of \ change=\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}\\Average \ rate \ of \ change=\frac{19-30}{6-(-5)}\\Average \ rate \ of \ change=\frac{-11}{6+5}\\Average \ rate \ of \ change=\frac{-11}{11}\\Average \ rate \ of \ change=-1[/tex]

Average rate of change = -1

So, average rate of change of the function [tex]f(x)=x^2-2x-5[/tex]  for interval [tex]-5\leq x\leq 6[/tex] is -1
