Answer 1

Answer:

2x-1=3

2x=3+1

2x=4

x=2

Answer 2

[tex]\huge\boxed{\underline{\bf \: Answer}}[/tex]

(a) Let's try with x = - 1

[tex] \sf \: 2x - 1 = 3 \\\sf 2( - 1) - 1 = 3 \\ \sf- 2 - 1 = 3 \\ \\ \boxed{\bf- 3 \: \bcancel= \: 3}[/tex]

So, x = - 1 is not the solution to the given equation.

______________

(b) Now, try with x = 2

[tex]\sf2x - 1 = 3 \\ \sf2(2) - 1 = 3 \\ \sf4 - 1 = 3 \\ \\ \boxed{\bf3 = 3}[/tex]

Yes, we can see that x = 2 is the correct solution for the equation.

Answers

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 8x - 3 = -25

Move the -3 over to the other side. This will make the -3 into positive 3

3x + 8x = -25 + 3

Now add like terms

11x = -22

Divide both sides by 11 to get x by itself

x = -2

Answer:

x= -2

Step-by-step explanation:

First you combine the like terms 3x and 8x which then gives you 11x

then you'll have 11x-3=-25

add 3 to both sides and you have 11x=-22

divide the 11 on both sides

then you'll have x=-2

f(x)=x and g(x)=(2x-3)^5 so (fog)(x)=g(f(x))=g(x)=(2x-3)^5

2)

f(x)=x^5 and g(x)=2x-3 so (fog)(x)=g(f(x))=g(x^5)=(2x-3)^5

Answer:

  (x, y) ⇒ (y+1, 7-x) . . . rotation 90° CW about (4, 3)

or

  (x, y) ⇒ (y+1, x+1) . . . glide reflection across y=x; and translation (1, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure is apparently rotated 90° clockwise. This can be accomplished a couple of ways: (1) rotation 90° CW about some center; (2) reflection across the line y=x. Because of the symmetry of the figure, we cannot tell which of these is used.

Rotation

The center of rotation can be found by looking at the perpendicular bisectors of the segments joining a vertex and its image. One such segment has endpoints (1, 6) and (7, 6), so is a horizontal line with midpoint (4, 6). The perpendicular bisector of that is x=4.

Another segment joining a point with its image has endpoints (5, 6) and (7, 2). Its midpoint is (6, 4), and the slope of the bisector through that point is 1/2. It intersects the line x=4 at (4, 3), the center of rotation.

Rotation 90° CW about the origin is the transformation (x, y) ⇒ (y, -x), so rotation of (x, y) 90° about the point (4, 3) will be the transformation ...

  (x, y) ⇒ ((y -3) +4, (-(x -4) +3) = (y +1, 7 -x)

The transformation A to B is rotation 90° CW about (4, 3):

  (x, y) ⇒ (y +1, 7 -x).

__

Reflection

Simple reflection across the line y=x is the transformation (x, y) ⇒ (y, x). Applying that transformation, we see that an additional translation of 1 unit right and one unit up is required. The complete transformation is a "glide reflection", a reflection followed by a translation.

The transformation A to B is a glide reflection across the line y=x with a translation up 1 and right 1:

  (x, y) ⇒ (y +1, x +1).

The vertex form of the equation of a vertical parabola is given by , where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola and the absolute value of p is the distance from the vertex to the focus, which is also the distance from the vertex to the directrix. You will use the GeoGebra geometry tool to create a vertical parabola and write the vertex form of its equation. Open GeoGebra, and complete each step below. If you need help, follow these instructions for using GeoGebra. Mark the focus of the parabola you are going to create at F(6, 4). Draw a horizontal line that is 6 units below the focus. This line will be the directrix of your parabola. What is the equation of the line?

To practice writing the equations of vertical parabolas, write the equations of these parabolas in vertex form:

focus at (-5, -3), and directrix y = -6
focus at (10, -4), and directrix y = 6.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Focus: (6,4)

Directrix lies 6 units below the focus, so the parabola opens upwards and focal length p = 6/2 = 3.

The equation of the directrix is y = -2.

The vertex is halfway between focus and directrix, at (6,1).

Equation of the parabola:

y = (1/(4p))(x-6)²+1 = (1/12)(x-6)²+1

The equation of the parabola is [tex]y = \frac{1}{12}(x - 6)^2 + 1[/tex]

What are parabolas?

Parabolas are used to represent a quadratic equation in the vertex form

The given parameters are:

Focus = (6,4)

Directrix (x) = 6 units below the focus,

Start by calculating the focal length (p)

[tex]p = \frac x2[/tex]

This gives

[tex]p = \frac 62[/tex]

[tex]p = 3[/tex]

Next, calculate the vertex as follows:

[tex](h,k) = (6,2/2)[/tex]

Simplify

[tex](h,k) = (6,1)[/tex]

The equation of the parabola is then calculated a:

[tex]y = \frac{1}{4p}(x - h)^2 + k[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]y = \frac{1}{4*3}(x - 6)^2 + 1[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]y = \frac{1}{12}(x - 6)^2 + 1[/tex]

Hence, the equation of the parabola is [tex]y = \frac{1}{12}(x - 6)^2 + 1[/tex]

The required expressions are both equations 1 and 2 as shown:

the 10% and the 20% solutions should she mix to get what she needs?

Answers

Answer:

17.5ml- of 10 percent solution, 17.5ml- of 20 percent solution

Step-by-step explanation:

35:100*15=5.25- ml of alkali in the base solution

Suppose we need x ml of 10 percents solution and 35-x - of 20 percents.

Then The quantity of alkali in the first one (10 percents) is x/100*10=0.1x

when in the second one we have (35-x)/100*20= 7-0.2x of alkali

0.1x+7-0.2x=5.25

7-0.1x= 5.25

0.1x=1.75

x=17.5- 0f 10 percents

35-17.5=17.5 - of 20 percents
