What is the value of x in the polygon below?

Answer:

  (b)  x +2y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

There are at least a couple of ways to come to the conclusion.

  1) use the given information to write the equation of the desired line

  2) check to see which of the answer choices satisfies the requirement

__

The given line has two specified points on it. These can be used to find its slope. (Or, you can count grid square to see it has a rise of -1 for a run of +2.)

The slope formula is ...

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

  m = (-4 -0)/(4 -(-4)) = -4/8 = -1/2

Comparing this to our grid square count, we see they are the same:

  m = rise/run = -1/2

Now, we have a slope (-1/2) and a point (2, 3), so we can use these to write the point-slope equation of the desired line:

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

  y -3 = -1/2(x -2) . . . . . point-slope equation of the desired line

  y -3 = -1/2x +1 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  1/2x +y = 4 . . . . . . . . add 1/2x +3 to both sides

  x +2y = 8 . . . . . . . . . multiply by 2

__

Perhaps easier in this case is to try the given equations to see which is satisfied at the given point. There are two different left-side expressions to evaluate at the point (x, y) = (2, 3):

  x +2y = (2 +2(3)) = 2+6 = 8

  2x +y = 2(2) +3 = 4 +3 = 7

Only the equation ...

  x +2y = 8

is satisfied at the given point.

Additional comments

While I encourage you to learn to solve questions like this "from scratch", modern math curriculum is often "multiple choice."

When faced with multiple choices for answers, it is often easiest to ...

  (a) eliminate the ones that are not self-consistent or that are false on their face;

  (b) eliminate the ones that have an obviously fatal flaw (wrong sign of slope, too large or too small, for example);

  (c) choose from the remaining ones the one that properly answers the question (satisfies all requirements).

__

When you solve a standard-form equation for y, you get ...

  ax +by = c

  by = -ax +c

  y = -a/bx +c/b

That is, the slope of the line is -a/b.

For the two left-side expressions in the answer choices, the slopes are ...

  x +2y   ⇒   slope = -1/2

  2x +y   ⇒   slope = -2/1 = -2

The scales on the graph are the same in the x- and y-directions, so the shallow negative slope of the given line is clearly less than 1. That eliminates the last two answer choices already.

The personal hygiene part of the store (I think)

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an ultimately weird question, so I don't really know. But my answer is what I think, (I don't even know if it exists though).

The solution to the systems of equations is (7, 3)

Given the systems of equations expressed as:

-x + 4y = 5 ....................1

x - 5y = -2 ...................... 2

Add both equations to have:

-x+x + 4y - 5y = 5 - 2

4y-5y = -3

-y = -3

y = 3

Substitute y = 3 into equation 1:

-x + 4(3) = 5

-x + 12 = 5

-x = 5 - 12

-x = -7

x = 7

Hence the solution to the systems of equations is (7, 3)

Let the two numbers be X and Y

Sum of the two numbers = 5

⇛ X+Y = 5-----(1)

Difference of their squares = 5

⇛ X²-Y² = 5

⇛(X+Y)(X-Y) = 5

⇛5(X-Y) = 5

⇛X-Y = 5/5

⇛ X-Y = 1

The difference of the two numbers = 1. Ans.

Option B: [tex]y=\left \{ {{x^2+6,x<3} \atop {-x+6,x\geq3}} \right.[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see that the first part of the piecewise function is a parabola with a y-intercept of (0,6) where the domain is restricted for all values of x less than 3 given the open circle at x=3.

The second part of the piecewise function is a linear function with a negative slope where the domain is restricted for all values of x greater than or equal to 3 given the closed circle at x=3.

Essentially, the piecewise function has a jump discontinuity at x=3 where the first part of the function goes to the second part of the function at one point by "jumping".

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - 2 and c = - 2 , then

y = - 2x - 2 ← is the equation of the line

To find the x- intercept let y = 0 in the equation and solve for x , that is

- 2x - 2 = 0 ( add 2 to both sides )

- 2x = 2 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

x = - 1

The x- intercept is - 1 → B

Answer:

y = - [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex] x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 7) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, 2) ← 2 points on the line

m = [tex]\frac{2-7}{4-0}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-5}{4}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex]

The line crosses the y- axis at (0, 7 ) ⇒ c = 7

y = - [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex] x + 7 ← equation of line

The required change in the price of the share of stock is $4.4.

Given that,
On September 1, you own 12.5 shares of stock that are worth $149.87. On December 1, the shares are worth $94.87, and the change in the price per share of stock is to be determined.

The process in mathematics to operate and interpret the function to make the function or expression simple or more understandable is called simplifying and the process is called simplification.

Here,
Initial total cost shares of stock = $149.87
A total number of shares = 12.5
The initial cost of single share = 149.87/ 12.5 = $11.98
Now final cost of the total share = $94.87
The final cost of the single share is = 94.87 / 12.5 = $7.58
Change in price of shares of stock = 11.98 - 7.58 = $4.4

Thus, the required change in the price of the share of stock is $4.4.
