Could x = -5 be a solution to the inequality -6 < 3x + 9 < 21?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x=−5<x<4

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

So you think that x = -5 is the solution for the inequality? Let's check it out.

(Check)

- Substitute x = -5 in the inequality

[tex]-6<3(-5)+9<21\\-6<-15+9<21\\-6<-6<21[/tex]

If it was the symbol ≤ you'd be correct, but it's < so It's a bit wrong.

Now let's solve the inequality. Separate the inequality by parts.

[tex]\left \{ {{-6<3x+9} \atop {3x+9<21}} \right. \\\left \{ {{-6-9<3x} \atop {3x<21-9}} \right. \\\left \{ {{-15<3x} \atop {3x<12}} \right. \\\left \{ {{x>-5} \atop {x<4}} \right.[/tex]

Therefore, the inequality is true only when x > -5 or x < 4.

(Check)

- Substitute x = -4 in the inequality.

[tex]-6<3(-4)+9<21\\-6<-12+9<21\\-6<-3<21[/tex]

The inequality is true for first case.

- Substitute x = 3 in the inequality

[tex]-6<3(3)+9<21\\-6<9+9<21\\-6<18<21[/tex]

The inequality is true for second case.

So the answer for inequality is -5 < x < 4

That means only {-4, -3, -2, ..., 3} can make the inequality true.

Solutions:

x = −4 /2  = −2

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3x+5−(5x+8)=−4x−7

3x+5+−1(5x+8)=−4x−7(Distribute the Negative Sign)

3x+5+−1(5x)+(−1)(8)=−4x−7

3x+5+−5x+−8=−4x−7

3x+5+−5x+−8=−4x+−7

(3x+−5x)+(5+−8)=−4x−7(Combine Like Terms)

−2x+−3=−4x−7

−2x−3=−4x−7

Step 2: Add 4x to both sides.

−2x−3+4x=−4x−7+4x

2x−3=−7

Step 3: Add 3 to both sides.

2x−3+3=−7+3

2x=−4

Step 4: Divide both sides by 2.

Answers

Answer:

Yes it is.

Step-by-step explanation:

To figure this out, lets first convert inches to centimeters. 1 Inch is equal to 2.54cm. Lets multiply 12 times 2.54. That would be equal to 30.48, which is greater than 29. This means that it is long enough to cut.

Write the equation of the parabola in vertex form.
vertex (4,4), point (3, -1)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y=-5(x-4)^2+4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of the Quadratic Function

The vertex form of the quadratic function has the following equation:

[tex]y=a(x-h)^2+k[/tex]

Where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola, and a is a coefficient different from zero.

The vertex is located at (4,4).

Substituting the coordinates of the vertex, the equation of the function is:

[tex]y=a(x-4)^2+4[/tex]

The value of a will be determined by using the given point (3,-1).

[tex]-1=a(3-4)^2+4[/tex]

Operating:

[tex]-1=a(1)+4[/tex]

Solving:

[tex]a=-5[/tex]

Answer:

No, I don't believe this is the most appropriate format, the scatter plot is good but the weight section is not labeled correctly, the dollar signs don't belong, they are irrelevant to weight and height. And the height section should be changed to feet instead of inches, it would just make more sense.

The Li family is going hiking. The distance from their car can be found using the function d(t) = 3t + 1, where d is the miles away from their car and t is in hours that they have hiked. If d(t) = 7, what is the value of t and what does it represent?

A. t = 2, the Li family has been hiking for 2 hours

B. t = 22, the Li family has been hiking for 22 hours.

C. t = 2, the Li family is 2 miles away from their car.

D. t = 22, the Li family is 22 miles away from their car.

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

d(t)=3t+1 but d(t)=7

distance*time=3*time+1

so d(t)=7 is the same as

d(t)=3(2)+1

meaning that you hiked for 2 hours.

Lindsey Smith was the top scorer in a women's professional basketball league for the 2006 regular season, with a total of 867 points. The number of two-point field goals that Lindsey made was 66 less than double the number of three-point field goals she made. The number of free throws (each worth one point) she made was 36 less than the number of two-point field goals she made. Find how many free throws, two-point field goals, and three-point field goals Lindsey Smith made during the 2006 regular season. How many free throws, 3 pointers, and 2 pointers did she make?

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Total point = 867

Let :

number of 3 point goals = p

Number of 2 point goals = 2p - 66

Number of 1 point goals = (2p - 66) - 36 = 2p - 102

Hence,

3p + 2(2p - 66) + 2p - 102 = 867

3p + 4p - 132 + 2p - 102 = 867

3p + 4p + 2p - 234 = 867

9p - 234 = 867

9p = 867 + 234

9p = 1101

p = 122.33

2 pointer = 2p - 66

2(122.33) - 66 = 178.67

1 point = 2p - 102

2(122.33) - 102

= 142.67

Note: you may need to recheck the parameters given, because the expected result should be whole numbers

A = 9 over 2 (b + 35)

Which of the following formulas correctly solves for the other base, b?

Answers

b - the other base;

A = 9/2 ( b + 35 )   / * 2  ( we will multiply both sides of the equation by 2 )

2 A = 9 ( b + 35 )

b + 35 = 2 A / 9  

b + 35 - 35 = 2 A / 9 - 35

                      ANSWER  15x^2+116+192

Answer:

The chosen topic is not meant for use with this type of problem.

Step-by-step explanation:

The best way to try and solve is using the quadratic formula. The quadratic formula helps us solve any quadratic equation. First, we bring the equation to the form ax²+bx+c=0, where a, b, and c are coefficients. Then, we plug these coefficients in the formula: (-b±√(b²-4ac))/(2a) . See examples of using the formula to solve a variety of equations.

( 5x + 12 ) x ( 3x + 16 )

Step one : use the distributive factor. To “distribute” means to divide something or give a share or part of something. According to the distributive property, multiplying the sum of two or more addends by a number will give the same result as multiplying each addend individually by the number and then adding the products together.

5x x 3x

5x x 16

12 x 3x

12 x 16

15x^2 + 80x + 36x + 192

Step two: Combine like terms

15x^2 + 116x + 192

Step three: Solve the equation for  x  by finding  a

,  b, and c of the quadratic then applying the quadratic formula.

x = - 12/5 , -16/3

7/12 = Nickels

Then, he saved 20% more dimes and 3 times the number of nickels.

If he had 540 dimes and nickels altogether in the end, how many more nickels then dimes did he have?

Let the number of dimes = x

Let the number of nickels = y

Total number of dimes and nickels = 540

A salesperson makes 18% commission on every TV sold. If the salesperson sold four TV’s at $885 each, how much commission did they make?

Answers

Answer:

They made a $531 commission.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

The price of each TV is $885The commission is 18% on every TV soldThe salesperson sold 4 TV's

We need the value of the commission

Let us find the commission of every TV, then find the total amount of all

∵ The price of each TV is $885

∵ The commission is 18 %

→ Find 18% of $885

∴ The commission on every TV = 885 × 15%

∴ The commission on every TV = 885 × 15/100

∴ The commission on every TV = $132.75

∵ The salesperson sold 4 TV

∴ The commission on them = 4 × 132.75

∴ The commission on them = $531

They made a $531 commission.

Answer: $637.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Each TV is $885

do 885 · 18% or 885 · 18/100

that is 159.3

multiply that by the amount of TVs sold (4)

159.3 · 4 = 637.2

$637.20
