If f(x)= -2x+3 , find f(-1)?

Answers

Answer 1

Before we solve the equation let's take a look at it.

f(x) = -2x + 3

See how x appears in both f(x) and as the variable in the second half of the equation?

f(x) means "The function of x." You might also see g(x), h(x), and while those are the most common it can really be any letter, and any variable inside the parentheses.

So when we see f(-1), that means "The function of -1" or "The function of x when it is equal to -1."

Catching on? We need to replace x with -1 to solve for f(-1).

So here we go:

f(x) = -2x + 3

f(-1) = -2(-1) + 3

f(-1) = 2 + 3

f(-1) = 5

Voilà! We have solved for f(-1). Hope this helped.

The value of x on the given figure is 10.

Option D is the correct answer.

What is an expression?

An expression contains one or more terms with addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

We always combine the like terms in an expression when we simplify.

We also keep all the like terms on one side of the expression if we are dealing with two sides of an expression.

Example:

1 + 3x + 4y = 7 is an expression.

3 + 4 is an expression.

2 x 4 + 6 x 7 – 9 is an expression.

33 + 77 – 88 is an expression.

We have,

From the figure,

3x + 46 + 14 = 90

Now,

Simplifying.

3x + 60 = 90

Subtracting 60 on both sides.

3x = 90 - 60

3x = 30

Dividing 3 into both sides.

x = 10

Thus,

The value of x on the given figure is 10.

Answer: x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

since it is showing us that the angles are congruent, we know that the smaller triangle is just a scaled-down version of the larger one. in other words, it is the EXACT SAME triangle, just slightly smaller.

so, i redrew them next to each other, so i could compare them easily.

i looked at the corresponding sides that were given, and realized that the side that is 10 on the larger triangle is equal to 5 on the smaller triangle. the side that is equal to 6 on the larger triangle is equal to 3 on the smaller triangle. this concludes that the smaller triangle is exactly half the size of the larger triangle!

so, i figured (using logic) that x must equal 4, simply dividing its corresponding side (with a measure of 8) in half.

Working together, two ants named Aran and Beatrice can build an ant hill in 10 hours. Aran and Charlie can build the ant hill in 12 hours. Beatrice and Charlie can build the ant hill in 15 hours. How long, in hours, will it take to build the ant hill if Aran, Beatrice, and Charlie work together?

Answers

Here we have a problem of rates of work, we want to know how long will take the 3 ants to build an ant hill if they work together.

We will find that working together, they need to work for 8 hours.

----------------------------------

Let's start by defining the variables that we will use:

A = rate at which Aran worksB = rate at which Beatrice works.C = rate at which Charlie works.

Now let's see the given information:

"Aran and Beatrice can build an ant hill in 10 hours"

This can be written as:

(A + B)*10 h = 1 ant hill

"Aran and Charlie can build the ant hill in 12 hours"

This can be written as:

(A + C)*12 h = 1 ant hill

"Beatrice and Charlie can build the ant hill in 15 hours"

This can be written as:

(B + C)*15 h = 1 ant hill.

Then we have 3 equations:

[tex](A + B)*10 h = 1[/tex]

[tex](A + C)*12 h = 1[/tex]

[tex](B + C)*15 h = 1[/tex]

Where for commodity, I removed the "ant hill" unit.

Now we need to solve this system of equations, to do it, we need to isolate one variable in one of the equations and then replace it on another equation.

I will isolate A in the first equation:

[tex]A = \frac{1}{10h} - B[/tex]

Now we can replace it in the second equation to get:

[tex](\frac{1}{10h} - B + C)*12h = 1[/tex]

Now we can isolate C in the last equation to get:

[tex]C = \frac{1}{15h} - B[/tex]

Replacing that in the above equation we get:

[tex](\frac{1}{10h} - B + \frac{1}{15h} - B)*12h = 1\\\\\frac{1}{6h} - \frac{1}{12h}= 2*B\\\\\frac{1}{2}*\frac{1}{12h} = \frac{1}{24h} = B[/tex]

This means that Beatrice alone would construct the hill in 24 hours.

Now that we know the value of B, we can use:

[tex]C = \frac{1}{15h} - B = \frac{1}{15h} - \frac{1}{24h} = \frac{1}{40h}[/tex]

This means that Charlie needs 40 hours to finish the hill alone.

Finally, we can use [tex]A = \frac{1}{10h} - B[/tex] to find the value of A:

[tex]A = \frac{1}{10h} - B = \frac{1}{10h} - \frac{1}{24h} = \frac{7}{120h}[/tex]

Now if the 3 ants work together, the total rate at which they work is:

[tex](A + B + C) = (\frac{7}{120h} + \frac{1}{40h} + \frac{1}{24h} ) = 0.125 h^{-1}[/tex]

This means that they need to work for the inverse of that rate

[tex]\frac{1}{0.125h^{-1}} = 8h[/tex]

Working together, they need to work for 8 hours to complete an ant hill
