6 less than the product of a number and 3 is -18.. What is the
number?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:X= -4

Step-by-step explanation:

6 less than the product of a number and 3 is -18.

Make each part of the sentence into numbers:

"the product of a number and 3":  becomes X*(3), where X is the "number."

"6 less than":  is -6, so we have:

X*(3) - 6

"is -18"  means = -18

Put the segments into one equation and solve:

X*(3) - 6 = -18

3X-6=-18

3X = -12

X = -4

====

See if this works:  If X=-4, then the product of it and 3 is -12.  Six less than -12 is -18.  And that is correct.  X= -4

Answers

Answer:

Your answer would be the second option.

Explanation:

As it is looking for an exponential decay function, you must find one. As an exponential function has to be sloping negatively, you must find the graph that does just this. The only graph that does is graph number two. Henceforth your answer is graph number two, or B. (I also did this quiz, and got a 100%)

Hope This Helps!

The graph represents g(x) is B) On a coordinate plane, an exponential function decreases from quadrant 2 into quadrant 1 and approaches y = 0.

What is exponential growth or decay function?

Consider the function:

[tex]y = a(1\pm r)^m[/tex]

where m is the number of times this growth/decay occurs, a = initial amount, and r = fraction by which this growth/decay occurs.

If there is negative sign, then there is exponential decay happening by r fraction or 100r %

The graph of f(x) = 2x is shown.

it is looking for an exponential decay function, As an exponential function has to be sloping negatively.

Draw the graph of the equation by using the table shown below:

x      f(x)

-2      -4

-1       -2

0       0

The graph the exponential function approaches y = 0 in quadrant 1.

The function increases into quadrant 2 and It crosses the y-axis at (0, 1).

Hence, the correct option is B) On a coordinate plane, an exponential function decreases from quadrant 2 into quadrant 1 and approaches y = 0.

Find the sum of the first 32 terms of the AP : 0.5, 0.75, 1​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]S_{32}[/tex] = 140

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of n terms of an AP is

[tex]S_{n}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{n}{2}[/tex] [ 2a₁ + (n - 1)d ]

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = 0.5 and d = a₂ - a₁ = 0.75 - 0.5 = 0.25 , then

[tex]S_{32}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{32}{2}[/tex] [ (2 × 0.5) + (31 × 0.25) ]

     = 16(1 + 7.75)

Write an equation in​ slope-intercept form of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the graph of the given equation.

Answers

To find the parallel :

First of all, Parallel equations should have the same slope and a different y-intercept!

Take the equation of a linear function : y = mx + b, the slope here is m and the y intercept is b.

When we’re given a point (x,y), we write our equation in the y = mx + b form, then substitute the given point for (x,y) and solve for B!

Practice

We already know our equation will be in the form y = mx + b

And we also know that the slope will be the same : m = 4/7

So y = 4/7x + b

Lets find b !

The line passes through the point (0,0) of origin :

0 = 4/7*0 + b

b = 0

So the y intercept is b = 0

And finally the equation will be :

y = 4/7x

(x^2 - 1)(x^2 - 9) = 0

Answer:

  ∠A = 44°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b represent the measure of the exterior angle at B. Let c represent the measure of the exterior angle at C. The sum of angles in the lower triangle is ...

  b/2 +c/2 +68° = 180°

  b +c = 360° -136° . . . . . multiply by 2, subtract 136°

  b +c = 224°

__

The exterior angle b is the supplement of the interior angle there, so the interior angle B is ...

  B = 180° -b

The exterior angle c is the sum of the remote interior angles, so we have ...

  c = B +A

  c = (180° -b) +A

  A = (b +c) -180° . . . . . . . . add b-180° to both sides

  A = 224° -180° = 44° . . . . substitute for (b+c)

The measure of angle A is 44°.

_____

Additional comment

The angle naming is perhaps a little unconventional, but we wanted to use names that made the answer less cumbersome to write. We consider the angle A, B, C to be the interior angles of ΔABC, and we have named the exterior angles at B and C as 'b' and 'c'.

Conventionally, 'b' and 'c' would name the sides opposite angles B and C, respectively. We're not concerned with side lengths here, so we used those letters for an unconventional purpose.

3/4 x

we want x such that this length is 42, so we have the equation
