Elise says, "If you subtract 17 from my number and multiply the difference by -3, the result is -61."
What is Elise's number?

Answers

Answer:

Elise's number is 112/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can form the equation: [tex]\left(x-17\right)\cdot -3=-61[/tex]

Solution: [tex]\frac{\left(x-17\right)\left(-3\right)}{-3}=\frac{-61}{-3}[/tex]

[tex]x-17=\frac{61}{3}[/tex]

[tex]x-17+17=\frac{61}{3}+17[/tex]

C because if 1 ticket costs 1.80 for example 9 divided by 5 is 1.80 so A and B are same also 18 divided by 19 would be 1.80 which is also the same and for C 15 divided by 9 would not be 1.80 :)

Answers

Answer:

y=3x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking for an equation in slope-intercept form. This is y=mx+b, where m is slope and b is y-intercept. The slope is the change is y over the change in x. The y value changes 3 and the x value changes 1. So, the slope is 3/1 or just 3. The y-intercept is the value where the line intersects with the y-axis. Additionally, the y-intercept will have an x-value of 0. On the table, you can see that y=1 when x=0. Thus, the y-intercept is 1. Put the two values into the equation and you get y=3x+1.

Express 2x2 + 16x +11 in the form a (x + b)2 + c, where a, b and c are
numbers.
What are the values of a, b and c?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume the original expression is

2x² + 16x + 11

we need to get this into the form of a(x + b)² + c

let's do the generic multiplication and compare the result to the given expression :

a(x² + 2bx + b²) + c = ax² + 2abx + ab² + c

when we compare this with the original equation, we only need to look at terms with the same variable exponents.

2x² is the only term with "x²".

and ax² is the only term with "x²" in the generic form.

so ?

2x² = ax²

=>

a = 2

16x is the only term with "x" (exponent 1).

2abx is the only term with "x" in the generic form.

16x = 2abx

8x = abx = 2bx

4x = bx

=>

b = 4

11 is the only pure number (constant).

ab² + c is the only constant term in the genetic form.

11 = ab² + c = 2×4² + c = 2×16 + c = 32 + c

-21 = c

so, the solution is

2(x + 4)² - 21

What are the roots of the equation 4x^2+24x+45=0 in simplest a+bi form?

Answers

Answer:

X=(-1.5, 7.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

4x2 + -24x + -45 = 0

Reorder the terms:

-45 + -24x + 4x2 = 0

Solving

-45 + -24x + 4x2 = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

Factor a trinomial.

(-3 + -2x)(15 + -2x) = 0

 

Set the factor '(-3 + -2x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying

-3 + -2x = 0

Solving

-3 + -2x = 0

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '3' to each side of the equation.

-3 + 3 + -2x = 0 + 3

Combine like terms: -3 + 3 = 0

0 + -2x = 0 + 3

-2x = 0 + 3

Combine like terms: 0 + 3 = 3

-2x = 3

Divide each side by '-2'.

x = -1.5

Simplifying

x = -1.5  

Set the factor '(15 + -2x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying

15 + -2x = 0

Solving

15 + -2x = 0

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-15' to each side of the equation.

15 + -15 + -2x = 0 + -15

Combine like terms: 15 + -15 = 0

0 + -2x = 0 + -15

-2x = 0 + -15

Combine like terms: 0 + -15 = -15

-2x = -15

Divide each side by '-2'.

x = 7.5

Simplifying

x = 7.5

Solution

x = {-1.5, 7.5}

Write an equation in slope-intercept form from the following points:
(-4,6) and (0,7)

Answers

Answer:

y = 1/4 * x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

We start with the equation for slope-intercept y = mx + b -

Y is any y point on the line. X is any x point on the line. M is the slope of the line. B is the y-intercept of the line.

We first find the slope by using this equation (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) -

(7 - 6) / (0 - (-4))

1 / (0 + 4)

Slope = 1/4

Now we insert the slope into the equation -

y = 1/4 * x + b

As said before, Y is any y point on the line and X is any x point on the line, so we can choose a random point and insert it in to find the y-intercept -

(The equation already tells you the y-intercept (0, 7) but for checking, we will insert the point in too)

7 = 1/4 * 0 + b

7 = b

b = 7

The y-intercept of the line is (0, 7)

We insert the y-intercept in the equation -

y = 1/4 * x + 7

y = 1/4 * x + b is our answer to the problem.

Find the nth term of this number sequence
15, 12, 9, 6, ...

Answers

Answer:

18-3n

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of this number sequence is,

⇒ a(n) = 15 - 3 (n - 1)

What is Arithmetic sequence?

An arithmetic sequence is the sequence of numbers where each consecutive numbers have same difference.

Given that;

The sequence is,

15, 12, 9, 6..

Now, We can find the nth term as;

First term (a) = 15

Common difference (d) = 12 - 15 = - 3

We know that;

The nth term of the arithmetic sequence is,

⇒ a(n) = a + (n - 1) d

Hence, We get;

The nth term of this number sequence is,

⇒ a(n) = a + (n - 1) d

⇒ a(n) = 15 + (n - 1) (- 3)

⇒ a(n) = 15 - 3 (n - 1)

Thus, The nth term of this number sequence is,

⇒ a(n) = 15 - 3 (n - 1)

For the function  f(x) = -x-4 the value of f(4) is -8.

The given function is f(x) = -x-4.

We need to find the value of f(4).

To find this we have to replace the x value with 4.

Substitute x=4 in the function:

f(4)=-4-4

f(4)=-8

Hence, the value of f(4) is -8.
