Which is a correct first step in solving 5 – 2x < 8x – 3?

choices
5 < 6x – 3
3x < 8x – 3
5 < 10x – 3
2 – 2x < 8x

Answers

Answer 1
First option isn't correct because when you transfer -2x on other side you get 10x and not 6x.

Second option isn't correct either. Transfering 5 on other side (from left to right) will get -3-5 = -8 and we still have -3

Third option is correct. We get 10x on right side when switching -2x from left and it will change its sign and will be 2x+8x = 10x on right.

Finally, forth one is not correct. -3 when goes from right side to left will change sign to +3 and when summed with 5 will get 8 and not 2.

a) the difference of six times a number and five
b) the sum of six times a number and five
c) quotient of six times a number and five
d) the product of six times a number and five

Answers

Answer: b)  the sum of six times a number and five

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is [tex]6b+5[/tex], where b represents any number.

The above expression has two terms combined by addition operation.

In the first term there is one variable b and 6 as coefficient of b and the second term is a constant term of 5.

Therefore, the correct description of the given expression [tex]6b+5[/tex] is " the sum of six times a number and five".

Answer:

Option: b is the correct answer.

b) the sum of six times a number and five.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given an algebraic expression in term of a variable 'b' as:

                                  6b+5

As we could see that here there are two terms in an expression one is: 6b and the other is 5 which is separated by a summation sign.

  Hence, when 6 times of a number 'b' is added to 5 we get the given expression(i.e. 6b+5)

              Hence, the answer is:  Option: b

An angle is formed when two straight lines or rays meet at a common endpoint. The common point of contact is called the vertex of an angle.

According to the question

(x - 10) + (2x + 10) = [tex]180^{0}[/tex]

Answers

I'm not sure but first one is 5! = 120

Answer:

[tex]7^4[/tex][tex]\dfrac{27}{343}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given 7 alphabets out of which we need to choose 4 alphabets in order to make a code of 4 letters.

    Hence the size of the sample space is: [tex]7^4[/tex]

     since we have to fill in 4 places with the help of these 7 letters.

  so in first place we can select one out of any 7 letters, similarly for the second place as it is not mentioned that repetition is not allowed and the same can be done for third and fourth place.

Hence size of sample space is: [tex]7\times7\times7\times7=7^4[/tex]

Now the probability of an event is given by:

 Probability=(Number of favourable outcomes)/(Total number of outcomes)

Hence here the total number of outcomes=[tex]7^4[/tex]

Total number of favourable outcomes=outcomes that the first three letters are vowels=[tex]3\times3\times3\times7[/tex] (since in the first place we have three choices for a vowel{A,I,0} similarly for second and third place and in the fourth place any one of the 7 letters could come)

Hence the probability(P) that the first three letters of the four-letter code are vowels is given by:

[tex]P=\dfrac{3\times3\times3\times7}{7\times7\times7\times7}=\dfrac{3\times3\times3}{7\times7\times7}=\dfrac{27}{343}[/tex]

Hence, the Probability is: [tex]\dfrac{27}{343}[/tex]

Answer:

First option is correct. The location of point A after the transformations is (-5,1).

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the coordinates of point A are (-5,1).

Rectangle ABCD is reflected over the x-axis. then x-coordinate remains the same but the sign of y-coordinate is changed.

[tex](x,y)\rightarrow (x,-y)[/tex]

Coordinates of point A are

[tex](-5,1)\rightarrow (-5,-1)[/tex]

After that ABCD is reflected over the y-axis, then y-coordinate remains the same but the sign of x-coordinate is changed.

[tex](x,y)\rightarrow (-x,y)[/tex]

Coordinates of point A are

[tex](-5,-1)\rightarrow (5,-1)[/tex]

After that ABCD rotated 180 degrees about the origin, then the sign of both coordinates are changed.

[tex](x,y)\rightarrow (-x,-y)[/tex]

[tex](5,-1)\rightarrow (-5,1)[/tex]

Therefore option 1 is correct.

Mia is three years older than twice her sister Brooke's age. The sum of their ages is less than 30. What is the greatest age Brooke could be?

a.)7

b.)8

c.) 9

d.)10 ...?

Answers

To find the answer, here is the solution for this problem:
Let M be Mia's age and B for Brooke's age.
M = 2B + 3 
M + B < 30 

M = 30 - B 
30 - B = 2B + 3 
3B = 27 

B = 9
Therefore, Brooke's age is 9 years old. The correct answer would be option C. 
Hope this is the answer that you are looking for. Let me know if you need more help next time.

The correct answer is b. 8. 8 is the greatest age Brooke could be.

Let's denote Brooke's age as B and Mia's age as M. According to the information given:

M = 2B + 3 (since Mia is three years older than twice Brooke's age).

 We also know that the sum of their ages is less than 30:

M + B < 30.

 Substituting the expression for M into the inequality, we get:

2B + 3 + B < 30,

3B + 3 < 30,

3B < 27,

B < 9.

Since Brooke's age must be a whole number, the greatest integer less than 9 is 8. Therefore, the greatest age Brooke could be is 8 years old.

Answers

You haven't given enough information. The best I can say is that the wolf weighs 50 pounds, but I don't think that is right..

Answer:

the wolf is 76 lbs.

Step-by-step explanation:

first you have to divide 32 by 8, which is 4. Then you know that 4 is the divider to the simplified ratio, 3:8. So you multiply 3 and 4 which is 12. so you add 32 and 12 which is 44. then you subtract 44 by 120 which is 76. So The weight of the wolf is 76 lbs.

If f(x) = {ln x for 0 < x less than or equal to 2
{x^2 ln2 for 2 < x less than or equal to 4, then the limit as x approaches 2 of f(x) is..

Answers

Final answer:

The function f(x) is a piecewise function. To find the limit as x approaches 2, you must consider it from the left and right. From the left, the limit is ln(2), from the right, it's 4ln(2). Since these are not equal, the limit does not exist.

Explanation:

The function f(x) is a piecewise function where the first range covers 0 < x <= 2 and the second ranging from 2 < x <= 4. To find the limit of f(x) as x approaches 2, we need to find the limit from both directions, as x approaches 2 from the left (<) and the right (>).

For x approaches 2 from the left (<), f(x) boils down to ln(x), so the limit as x approaches 2 would be ln(2).

 For x approaching 2 from the right (>), f(x) translates to x^2 * ln(2). Substituting x = 2 in this function gives us (2)^2 * ln(2) which is 4ln(2)

The limit does not exist since ln(2) not equal to 4ln(2).

Final answer:

The limit of the function f(x) as x approaches 2 does not exist, because the values obtained when approaching from the left (ln2) and from the right (4ln2) do not match.

Explanation:

The question is asking us to find the limit of the function f(x) as x approaches 2. This is a well-known concept in calculus, called the limit of a function. It is easy to solve using the rule that if f(x) and g(x) are two functions that agree at every point of a certain interval, except perhaps at one single point 'a', then their limits as x approaches 'a' are the same.

So let's find the limit as x approaches 2 by looking at each side independently. For x less than or equal to 2, the function is defined as ln(x). So when x approaches 2 from the left, we get ln(2). For x greater than or equal to 2, the function is defined as x^2ln(2). So when x approaches 2 from the right, we get 4ln(2).

Since the values obtained when approaching 2 from the left (ln2) and from the right (4ln2) do not match, we can conclude that the limit of f(x) as x approaches 2 does not exist.
