Answer:

x=21/4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. combine like terms

-4+-7= -11 3x-2x=x

2. subtract x

5x-11=x+10

4x-11=10

3. add 11

4x=21

4. divide 21 by 4 = 21/4

Jillian has three different bracelets (x y and z) to give to her friends as gifts In any order she prefers if the bracelet y is

9966 [12]

Answer:

Number of ways to chose bracelet = 2 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total number of bracelet = 3

Y is chosen first

Find:

Number of ways to chose bracelet

Computation:

Y is chosen first so remain number of bracelet is 2

So,

Number of ways to chose bracelet = !2

Number of ways to chose bracelet = 2 × 1

Number of ways to chose bracelet = 2 ways

An expression is given: 2 open parentheses square root of k minus 1 close parenthesis plus square root of 8. If on adding negati

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

Possible value of k is √2

Step-by-step explanation:

The information given are;

The expression, 2·(√k - 1) + √8 to which may be added -6·√2 to obtain a rational number, we therefore have;

2·(√k - 1) + √8 - 6·√2 = R

Therefore, simplifying gives;

2·√k - 2 + 2·√2 - 6·√2 = 2·√k - 2 - 4·√2 = R

2·√k - 2 - 4·√2 + 2= R + 2 = R

2·√k - 2+ 2 - 4·√2 = R

2·√k + 0 - 4·√2 = 2·√k - 4·√2 = 2·(√k - 2·√2) = R

(√k - 2·√2) = R/2 = R

Therefore, √2 is a factor of √k such that √k - 2·√2 = R

Which gives k = x·√2, where x = a rational number

When x = 1, k = √2.

Therefore, a possible value of k is √2

Which of the following equations is equivalent to log(y)= 3.994 ?

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D: $y = 10^{3.994}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

log(y)= 3.994

Solution:

A logarithm base b of a positive number x satisfies the following definition:

$y =log_b(x) => b^y =x$

For $x > 0, b >0, b \neq 1$

Also if no base b is indicated, the base of the logarithm is assumed to be 10 .

Thus, in log(y)= 3.994 base b is not indicated. so its base is assumed to be 10

now

$log_{10}(y)= 3.994$

Then

$y = 10^{3.994}$

The function f(x) = 1/2 x + 3/2 is used to complete this table.

Mrac [35]

Answer:

a) f(-1/2) = -2 is NOT TRUE.

b) f(0) =3/2 is TRUE.

c) f(1) = -1 is NOT TRUE.

d) f(2) = 1 is NOT TRUE.

e) f(4) = 7/2 is TRUE.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given function is $f(x) = (\frac{1}{2}) x+\frac{3}{2}$

Now, checking for each values for the given function:

a) Putting x = (-1/2):

$f(\frac{-1}{2} ) = (\frac{1}{2})(\frac{-1}{2} ) +\frac{3}{2} = \frac{-1}{4} + (\frac{3}{2} )\\\implies f(x) = \frac{-1 + 6}{4} = (\frac{5}{4} )$

and (5/4) ≠ -2

Hence, f(-1/2) = -2 is NOT TRUE.

b)Putting x = 0 :

$f(0) = (\frac{1}{2})(0 ) +\frac{3}{2} = (\frac{3}{2} )$

Hence, f(0) =3/2 is TRUE.

c) Putting x = 1:

$f(1 ) = (\frac{1}{2})(1 ) +\frac{3}{2} = \frac{1}{2} + (\frac{3}{2} )\\\implies f(x) = \frac{3 + 1}{2} = (\frac{4}{2} ) = 2\implies 2 \neq -1$

Hence, f(1) = -1 is NOT TRUE.

d)Putting x = 2:

$f(2 ) = (\frac{1}{2})(2 ) +\frac{3}{2} = 1+ (\frac{3}{2} )\\\implies f(x) = \frac{2 + 3}{2} = (\frac{5}{2} )$

and (5/2) ≠ 1

Hence, f(2) = 1 is NOT TRUE.

e)Putting x = 4:

$f(4 ) = (\frac{1}{2})(4 ) +\frac{3}{2} = 2 + (\frac{3}{2} )\\\implies f(x) = \frac{4 + 3}{2} = (\frac{7}{2} )$

Hence, f(4) = 7/2 is TRUE.
