So if 1/3 0f the oranges equals 4, than you times it by three to get 3/3, so there were 12 oranges and 28 grapefruits, so the answer is 40

A = 6
x^2 + 6x is equal to x(x+6)
b=2
Denominator and numerator of the first term are multiplied by x. 
c=6
Second term is multiplied by (x-6)/(x-6)
d=2
Now that they have the same denominator, the two terms are combined. 2 is the coefficient of the first term
e=6
In the same way as d is carried over from b, e is carried over from c. 
f = 6
2x - x + 6 = x + 6
g = 1 
We factor out the (x+6) from the numerator and denominator

If f(x) = (xm + 9)2, which statement about f(x) is true?
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

The correct statement for the given function is:

f(x) is an even function for all even values of m.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct statement for the given function is:

f(x) is an even function for all even values of m.

The given function(x^m+9)^2 is a quadratic equation. The term Quadratic means the variable gets squared. if m is an even number, that would result also to an even function....

Mr. mole left his burrow that lies 7 meters below the ground and started digging his way deeper into the ground, descending at a
Dimas [21]

Answer:

f(t)=-\frac{3}{2}t-7

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

  • The initial conditions are -7 meters at 0 minutes.
  • Then, after 6 minutes, he was 16 meters below the ground.

According to these two simple facts we can found the linear function that describes this problem. First, the problem says that Mr. Mole is descending at a constant rate, which is the slope of the function. Now, to calculate the slope we need to points, which are (0;-7) and (6;-16), where <em>t-values </em>are minutes, and <em>y-values </em>are meters. You can see, that the first point is the initial condition and the second point is 6 minutes later.

So, we calculate the slope:

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{t_{2}-t_{1}} \\m=\frac{-16-(-7)}{6-0}=\frac{-16+7}{6}=\frac{-9}{6}=\frac{-3}{2}

From the slope we can see that Mr. Mole is descending, because it has a negative sign. Also, the point (0;-7) is on the <em>y-axis</em>, because <em>t</em> is null, so -7 is part of the function. Therefore the function that describes this problem is:

f(t)=-\frac{3}{2}t-7
