Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4x + 3-2x = -1/4 + 1/2x +5 (combine alike terms)

-5/4x+3 = 19/4+1/2x

(subtract 1/2x from -5/4x and 1/2x)

-7/4x+3 = 19/4

(subtract 3 from itself and 19/4)

-7/4 = 7/4

(times -4/7 to both sides)

-1

3/4x + 3 - 2x = -1/4 + 1/2x + 5 ...multiply everything by 4 to get rid of fractions
3x + 12 - 8x = - 1 + 2x + 20...simplify
-5x + 12 = 2x + 19
-5x - 2x = 19 - 12
-7x = 7
x = -7/7
x = -1

Lesson 1-1: The periodic comet named Johnson has been seen at every return since its discovery in 1949, as shown in the table be
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Occurrence                 Year seen          Difference

1                                      1949                       -  

2                                     1956               1956 - 1949 = 7

3                                     1963               1963 - 1956 = 7

4                                     1970                1970 - 1963 = 7

Difference between each successive term of year seen = 7 years

Therefore, there is a common difference of 7 years between each successive term.

Function defining the year seen will be a linear function and will increase in the same pattern. (multiple of 7 years)

2017 - 1970 = 47 (It's not the multiple of 7)

2018 - 1970 = 48 (It's not the multiple of 7)

2019 - 1970 = 49 (multiple of 7)

2020 - 1970 = 50 (It's not the multiple of 7)

Therefore, comet will be seen next in 2019.

Option (C) will be the answer.

If a person is born in 2005

Then difference between 2005 and 1949 = 56 years

Number of times comet seen after 1949 = \frac{56}{7}=8 times

Total number of comet seen in the lifetime = 8 times

Find the first partial derivative:<br><br> f(x, y) = y^5 -3xy
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
Partial derivative is derivative over only 1 variable.
here we have 2 variables so it depends on which variable you want to make partial derivative.

case 1. 
df/dx = -3y

case 2
df/dy = 5y^4 - 3x

One of the factors of the polynomial x3 − 5x2 is x + 3. What is the other factor?
blondinia [14]

Answer:

C. x² − 8x + 24 − 72/(x+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

See attached picture for long division method.

Logically, we know x³ − 5x² factors to x² (x − 5).  Since x + 3 isn't a factor, we know the remainder isn't 0.  So we can narrow the options down to A or C.

One way to find the remainder is through long division.  Or, since this is multiple choice, we multiply the options by x + 3 and see which one results in an answer of x³ − 5x².

(x + 3) (x² − 8x + 24 − 72/(x+3))

(x + 3) (x² − 8x + 24) − 72

x³ − 8x² + 24x + 3x² − 24x + 72 − 72

x³ − 5x²
