Answer:

  • <u>He should graph the functions f(x) = 4x and g(x) = 26 in the same coordinate plane. The x-coordinate of the intersection point of the two graphs is the solution of the equation.</u>

Explanation:

<em>To solve the equation 4x = 26</em> using graphs, he should graph two functions in the same coordinate plane. The intersection of the two graphs is the solution of the equation.

The functions to graph are f(x) = 4x, and g(x) = 26.

The graph of f(x) = 4x is a line that goes through the origin (0,0) and has slope 4.

Some of the points to graph that line are:

<u>x            f(x) = 4x             </u>

0        4(0) = 0 →    (0,0)

2        4(2) = 8 →    (2,8)

4        4(4) = 16 →   (4,16)

6        4(6) = 24 →  (4, 24)

With those points you can do an excellent graph of f(x) = 4x

The graph of g(x) = 26 is horizontal line (parallel to the y-axis) that passes through the point (0, 26), which is the y -intercept.

You have to extend both graphs until they intersect each other. The x-coordinate of the intersection point is the solution of the function.

Murljashka [212]
The total amount that Chang will received from his wages is the product of his hourly wage times the number of hours he has worked (n). His total savings should not be less than $125. The equation that best describes the situation is, 
                                    45 + 7n ≥ 125
Solving for n in the inequality gives an answer of n≥11.42 hours. Thus, he needs to work for at least 12 hours.

Shota is a dangerous fellow who likes to go rock climbing in active volcanoes. One time, when he was 303030 meters below the edg
Alex

Answer:

5m/s;

6 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Initial position = 30 m below

He climbed at a constant rate, and was 7.5 m below after 4.5 s.

Distance climbed or covered in 4.5 seconds :

(Initial position - current position)

(30 - 7. 5)m = 22.5 meters

Using the relation:

Speed = distance covered / time taken

Therefore,

Shota's speed = 22.5m / 4.5s = 5m/s

Time taken to reach edge of volcano :

Distance left to cover = 7.5m

Speed = 5m/s

Time required to cover remaining distance :

= distance / speed

= (7.5m ÷ 5m/s) = 1.5s

Total time to reach edge :

(4.5 + 1.5)s = 6 seconds

one side of a right angled triangle is 10cm the other two are both of length x calculate x to 2 decimal place
shepuryov [24]

Answer: x = 7.07

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras theorem , since it is a right angled triangle ,

side 1 = 10cm

side 2 = x cm

side 3 = x cm

Pythagoras theorem  states that the area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares on the other two sides. That is

10^{2}=x^{2}  +x^{2}

100 = 2x^{2}

divide through by 2 , we have

50 = x^{2}

find the square root of both sides

x = \sqrt{50}

x = 7.07

140 fluid ounces increased by 45%
Leokris [45]
First divided 140 by 100 to find out how much 1 percent is
140 ÷ 100 = 1.4

multiply 1.4 by 45 to find 45 %; 1.4 x 45 = 63

then add 63, which is 45%, to 140, which is 100%, and you get 203, which is 140 + 45%, or 145%

please mark brainliest if this helped you. I hope it did!
