x = -9 and x = 8 when y = 0 is the answer

Answer: x= -9,8

Step-by-step explanation:

x=?

relationship in the table?
Time (weeks) 2 5 10
Trees Planted 130 325 650
A y = 2x
B y = 65x
C y = 130x
D y = 2x + 130
please help.

Answers

Answer:

B. [tex] y = 65x [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation showing a proportional relationship between two quantities, is usually written as [tex] y = kx [/tex]. Where,

y = output/dependent variable

x = input/independent variable

k = constant of proportionality that exists between each pair of values given.

In this case:

y = trees planted

x = time (weeks)

To find the constant of proportionality, k, use any given pair as (x, y). Let's use (10, 650).

Substitute y = 650 and x = 10 into [tex] y = kx [/tex], and solve for the value of k.

[tex] 650 = k(10) [/tex]

Divide both sides by 10

[tex] \frac{650}{10} = k [/tex]

[tex] 65 = k [/tex]

[tex] k = 65 [/tex]

Substitute k = 65 into [tex] y = kx [/tex] to generate the equation that shows the proportional relationship in the table:

[tex] y = 65x [/tex]

Find x and y. Give reasons to justify your solution.

Answers

Answer:

x = 36

y = 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for x

<EOG is a right angle due to the marking. Since that's the case, m<EOG = 90.

<EOF + <FOG = <EOG

Now let's substitute the values in.

54 + x = 90

x = 36

Let's solve for y

<AOB is 180 because it's a line.

<BOD + <COB = 180 because of supplementary angles

<BOD + 156 = 180

<BOD = 24

Let's create the equation now.

<AOE + <EOF + <FOG + <GOD + <BOD = <AOB

Now let's substitute the values in.

y + 54 + x + 2y + 24 = 180

3y + x + 78 = 180

Now let's substitute 36 for x.

4y + 36 + 78 = 180

3y + 114 = 180

3y = 66

y = 22

The figures below show sketches of Earl's and Dylan's flower gardens. If the perimeter of each of their gardens is the same, what is the length and width of Earl's garden?​

Answers

Answer:

[tex] length = 12 ft [/tex]

[tex] width = 8 ft [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Earl's garden:

[tex] length = (x + 6) ft [/tex]

[tex] width = (x + 2) ft [/tex]

[tex] perimeter = 2(length) + 2(width) [/tex]

[tex] perimeter = 2(x + 6) + 2(x + 2) [/tex]

[tex] perimeter = 2x + 12 + 2x + 4 = (4x + 16) ft [/tex]

Dylan's garden:

[tex] length = (2x - 2) ft [/tex]

[tex] width = (x + 4) ft [/tex]

[tex] perimeter = 2(length) + 2(width) [/tex]

[tex] perimeter = 2(2x - 2) + 2(x + 4) [/tex]

[tex] perimeter = 4x - 4 + 2x + 8 = (6x + 4) ft [/tex]

Generate an equation to solve for the value of x.

Since the perimeters of both gardens are the same, therefore:

[tex] 6x + 4 = 4x + 16 [/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex] 6x - 4x = - 4 + 16 [/tex]

[tex] 2x = 12 [/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

[tex] x = 6 [/tex]

Earl's garden:

[tex] length = (x + 6) ft [/tex]

Plug in the value of x

[tex] length = 6 + 6 = 12 ft [/tex]

[tex] width = (x + 2) ft = 6 + 2 = 8 ft [/tex]

The graph f(x) is reflected over the x-axis because the negative is outside of the parenthesis.

it's a vertical stretch by a factor of 2 because 2 is outside of the parenthesis and is greater than 1.

But we have never had to put a wall up to keep our people into prevent them from leaving us.While the wall is the most obvious and vivid demonstration of the failures of the Communist systemfor all the world to seewe take no satisfaction in it; for it is, as your Mayor has said, an offense not only against history but an offense against humanity, separating families, dividing husbands and wives and brothers and sisters, and dividing a people who wish to be joined together.What is true of this city is true of Germany: real, lasting peace in Europe can never be assured as long as one German out of four is denied the elementary right of free men, and that is to make a free choice. In 18 years of peace and good faith, this generation of Germans has earned the right to be free, including the right to unite their families and their nation in lasting peace, with good will to all people.Freedom is indivisible, and when one man is enslaved, all are not free. When all are free, then we can look forward to that day when this city will be joined as one and this country and this great Continent of Europe in a peaceful and hopeful globe. When that day finally comes, as it will, the people of West Berlin can take sober satisfaction in the fact that they were in the front lines for almost two decades.All free men, wherever they may live, are citizens of Berlin.And, therefore, as a free man, I take pride in the words "Ich bin ein Berliner."What is Kennedys purpose in including references to the division of families in his speech?to appeal to his audiences logicto make an emotional appeal to his audienceto show his audience where communism has succeededto boost morale and confidence among his audience Two bicyclist are accelerating forward at the same rate.
