Solve the equation for n
3(n-5) = -21

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

n=−2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

3(n−5)=−21

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3(n−5)=−21

(3)(n)+(3)(−5)=−21(Distribute)

3n+−15=−21

3n−15=−21

Step 2: Add 15 to both sides.

3n−15+15=−21+15

3n=−6

Step 3: Divide both sides by 3.

Answer 2

Answer: n= -2

Step-by-step explanation:

3(n−5)=−21

Divide both sides by 3.

n−5=  

3

−21

​  

 

Divide −21 by 3 to get −7.

n−5=−7

Add 5 to both sides.

n=−7+5

Add −7 and 5 to get −2.

n=−2

Teresa purchased a prepaid phone card for $15 . Long distance calls cost 24 cents a minute using this card. Teresa used her card only once to make a long distance call. If the remaining credit on her card is $3.96 , how many minutes did her call last?

Answers

Answer:

46 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Teresa purchased a prepaid phone for $15

Long distance calls cost 24 cents a minute using this card

She used the card just once to make a long distance call

The remaining credit on her card was $3.96

Therefore the minutes in which her call lasted can be calculated as follows

Let x represent the minutes

15 - 24/100x= 3.96

15-0.24x= 3.96

-0.24x= 3.96-15

-0.24x= -11.04

x= 11.04/0.24

x = 46

Hence Teresa call lasted for 46 minutes

Please classify the following equations as parallel, perpendicular, intersecting, or coinciding (same line):

y = 3x + 2

9x - 3y = -6

Answers

Answer:

Intersecting

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines means it will have the same slope, and perpendicular means the slope will be it's reciprocal, so the slope would be 1/3 x instead of 9x. Conciding means it's the exact same equation, so the answer has to be intersecting.

joshuasalazar697 avatar

A because u should have gotten a 3x after adding them together since u do what is inside the () before anything

fionaferlich1 avatar

3+x does not equal 3x

joshuasalazar697 avatar

y not

fionaferlich1 avatar

because 3x equals x times x times x not 3+x

joshuasalazar697 avatar

but why is it d

joshuasalazar697 avatar

they did it right u have to divide it from the right to the left

fionaferlich1 avatar

a rule of inequalities is when you divide by a negative the sign switches. so because u had to divide the entire thing by -6 it should be x is greater than -1

joshuasalazar697 avatar

no u have to divide it by positive 6 cause u are taking it the 6 from the right and moving it under the 6 from the left wich u would divide

fionaferlich1 avatar

u always divide by the coefficient of x and that's -6

joshuasalazar697 avatar

no cause since u moved all the letters to the right and all the lone numbers to the left u have to take that last one and divide it from the one with the x

fionaferlich1 avatar

the one with the x is the coefficient of x which is -6

joshuasalazar697 avatar

yeah i know that ut u don't divide the 6 from the -6x like u gonna divide -6x by 6

joshuasalazar697 avatar

also if i am wrong what happened to the 3 and why did it turn to an 18

fionaferlich1 avatar

so say that's what you're supposed to do (which it is ) but then u would get -x>1 and x must be positive

i should have paid attention in algebra no wonder I don't get geometry but geometry is way easier

D. The points do not follow the line of fit, and the line is

Answers

Answer:

It's A. The points all lie very close to the line of fit, and the line is decreasing.

Step-by-step explanation:

The points all lie very close to the line of fit, and the line is decreasing option (A) is correct.

What is correlation?

It is defined as the relation between two variables which is a quantitative type and gives an idea about the direction of these two variables.

[tex]\rm r = \dfrac{n(\sum xy)-(\sum x)(\sum y)}{\sqrt{{[n\sum x^2- (\sum x)^2]}}\sqrt{[n\sum y^2- (\sum y)^2]}}[/tex]

It is given that:

The value of the correlation coefficient r = -0.97

As we know,

If the value of the correlation coefficient is positive it represents the line of best-fit increasing.

If the value of the correlation coefficient is negative it represents the line of best fit decreasing.

If the value of r is close to 1 then we can say that the correlation between the two variables is very strong.

Thus, the points all lie very close to the line of fit, and the line is decreasing option (A) is correct.

Which explicit formula can be used to determine the nth term in the sequence?
a^n =6n+38
a^n= -6n+38
a^n= -6n+32
a^n= 6n+32​

Answers

Answer:

a^n = -6n + 32

Step-by-step explanation:

32 - 6 = 26

26 - 6 = 32 - 6.2 = 20

20 - 6 = 32 - 6.3 = 14

-> a^n = -6n + 32

A rocket is launched from a tower. The height of the rocket, why in feet is related to the time after launch, X and seconds, by the given equation. Using this equation find out the time at which the rocket will reach its max, to the nearest 100th of a second y=-16x + 152x + 74

Answers

Given:

Consider the height of the rocket, in feet after x seconds of launch is

[tex]y=-16x^2+152x+74[/tex]

To find:

The time at which the rocket will reach its max, to the nearest 100th of a second.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]y=-16x^2+152x+74[/tex]

It is a quadratic polynomial with negative leading coefficient. So, it is a downward parabola.

Vertex of a downward parabola is the point of maxima.

To find the time at which the rocket will reach its max, we need to find the x-coordinate of the vertex.

If a quadratic function is [tex]f(x)=ax^2+bx+c[/tex], then the vertex is

[tex]Vertex=\left(-\dfrac{b}{2a},f\left(-\dfrac{b}{2a}\right)\right)[/tex]

Here, [tex]a=-16,b=152,c=74[/tex].

So,

[tex]-\dfrac{b}{2a}=-\dfrac{152}{2(-16)}[/tex]

[tex]-\dfrac{b}{2a}=-\dfrac{152}{-32}[/tex]

[tex]-\dfrac{b}{2a}=4.75[/tex]

So, x-coordinate of the vertex is 4.75.

Therefore, the rocket will reach its max at 4.75 second.

Which statement best describes the function?

Answers

example of absolute value

F( x )=| x |

Step-by-step explanation:

In mathematics, the absolute value or modulus of a real number x, denoted |x|, is the non-negative value of x without regard to its sign. Namely, |x| = x if x is positive, and |x| = −x if x is negative (in which case −x is positive), and |0| = 0. For example, the absolute value of 3 is 3, and the absolute value of −3 is also 3. The absolute value of a number may be thought of as its distance from zero.

a line passing through the points (2, -6) and (4, -16)

Step-by-step explanation:

y=-5x+4

you plug in the x value and put the y value on the left side of the equation

for example

-6 = -5(2) + 4

then solve to see if it works

-5(2) = -10 + 4 = -6

(2, -6) works

-16 = -5(4) +4

-5(4) = -20

-20 + 4 = -16

(4, -16) works
