Answer:

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x+4y=-8

Let y = 2

-2x+4*2=-8

-2x+8=-8

Subtract 8 from each side

-2x+8-8=-8-8

-2x=-16

Divide by -2

-2x/-2 = -16/-2

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The error in the question is that in the second line, both sides are not multiplied by x. This causes an imbalance in the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{5}{x}= x-4[/tex]

Multiply both sides by x.

[tex]x(\frac{5}{x}) = x(x-4)[/tex]

[tex]5= x^{2} -4x[/tex]

Subtract 5 from the equations.

[tex]x^{2} -4x-5=0[/tex]

Factorise the equation (Quadratics)

[tex](x-5)(x+1)=0[/tex]

Null Factor Law

[tex]x=5[/tex] or [tex]x=-1[/tex]

Here, we have to go through the equation and correct it:

Starting equation: 5/x = x - 4

Multiply both sides by x:

x * (5/x) = x * (x - 4)

[tex]5 = x^2 - 4x[/tex]

Move all terms to one side to set up a quadratic equation:

[tex]x^2 - 4x - 5 = 0[/tex]

Now, we have a quadratic equation that needs to be solved.

We can solve this quadratic equation using factoring, completing the square, or the quadratic formula.

In this case, let's use factoring:

(x - 5)(x + 1) = 0

This gives you two possible solutions:

x - 5 = 0 --> x = 5

x + 1 = 0 --> x = -1

So, the correct solutions for the equation 5/x = x - 4 are x = 5 and x = -1. The error in your solution was in the step where you multiplied by x; you didn't distribute x properly to both terms on the right side of the equation.

This causes an imbalance in the equation.

The value of R is 12.

A value that yields the original number when multiplied by itself is known as the square root of a number. The square root is a backwards technique for figuring out a number. Thus, squares and square roots are connected ideas.

Given R/4 = 36/R

multiply both sides by R

R/4 x R = 36/R x R

R²/4  =  36

multiply both sides by 4

R²/4 x 4 =  36 x 4

R² = 144

so R = √144

R = 12

Hence R = 12 for given condition.

Answer:

  g(x) = (x -3)² -6

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that a function f(x) is translated h units to the right when x is replaced by x-h.

  g(x) = f(x-h) . . . . . translated h units right

You also know that a function f(x) is translated k units up when k is added to the function value.

  g(x) = f(x) +k . . . . . translated k units up

__

Here, we want to translate f(x) 3 units right and 6 units down. Using the above relations, we will get ...

  g(x) = f(x -3) -6

Using the given definition of f(x), this becomes ...

  g(x) = (x -3)² -6

Replace t with the months given as choices to see which one gives a positive value as an answer.

P(1) = 1^4-9(1)^3 + 24(1)^2-20(1) = -4

P(2) = 2^4-9(2)^3+24(2)^2-20(2) = 0

P(3) = 3^4 -9(3)^3+24(3)^2-20(3) = -6

P(5) = 5^4-9(5)^3+24(5)^2-20(5) = 0

P(6) = 6^4-9(6)^3+24(6)^2-20(6) = 96

By equa tion of area of triangle: S = 1/2 * height * base

Triangle B: 32  = 1/2 * 8 * x --> x = 8 (cm)

The base of triangle A is half of the base of triangle B so it is 4 cm.

The area of triangle A = 1/2 * 8 * 4 = 16 (cm2)

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Let's convert the decimals to fraction form.

0.5=5/10=1/2

-1/7

-0.2= -2/10= -1/5

1/3

We know that the bigger the number in the denominator, the smaller the fraction is if the numerators are all the same.

First off, we have the negative numbers which are smaller than the other numbers. We have -1/7 and -1/5. We know that the 1/5 is a bigger fraction, but it is negatively bigger, so that is going to be the lesser number.

-1/5, -1/7

And with our bigger ones, we have 1/3 and 1/2. 1/2 is the bigger number here, so that will be the last one. Let's also be sure to convert back to our original forms! Here is our order :

-0.2, -1/7, 1/3, 0.5
