Marcie solved the following inequality, and her work is shown below:

−2(x − 5) ≤ 6x + 18
−2x + 10 ≤ 6x + 18
−8x +10 ≤ 18
−8x ≤ 8
x ≤ −1

What mistake did Marcie make in solving the inequality?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

She forgot to flip the sign in the last step.

Step-by-step explanation:

In inequality, if you multiply or divide by a negative number, you would have to reverse the inequality sign.

Marice forgot to do this in the final step. She had to divide '-8' to get x completely on one side. All other steps are correct.

The correct answer is x ≥ -1.

Hope this helps.

Cooper will deposit $1,500 into an account that earns 7% simple interest every year. His sister Trinity will deposit $1,800 into an account that earns 6% simple interest every year. The deposits will be made on the same day, and no additional money will be deposited or withdrawn from the accounts. Which statement about the balances of Cooper's and Trinity's account at the end of 3 years is true?

Answers

Answer:

For Cooper :

Simple interest = $315

The total amount he would have in his account = $1815

For Trinity :

Simple interest =  $324

The total amount she would have in her account = $2124

Trinity's interest is higher than Cooper's interest by $9

The total amount of money Trinity would have at the end of 3 years is higher than that of Cooper by $309

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple interest = principal x rate x time

Value = amount deposited + simple interest

For Cooper :

Simple interest = $1,500 x 0.07 x 3 = $315

The total amount he would have in his account = $1,500 + $315 = $1815

For Trinity :

Simple interest = $1800 x 0.06 x 3 = $324

The total amount she would have in her account = $1,800 + $324 = $2124

If the 11th term of a geometric sequence is 32 times larger than the 6th term, then what is the common ratio of the sequence?

Answers

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

11th term of a geometric sequence is 32 times larger than the 6th term

The nth term of a geometric sequence is given by:

An = A*r^(n-1)

Where An = the nth term ; r = common ratio and n = term number ; A = first term

The 11th term:

A6 = A*r^(6 - 1) = Ar^5

A11 = 32A6 = 32Ar^5

A11 = Ar^(11 - 1) = Ar^10

Hence,

Ar^10 = 32Ar^5

r^(10 - 5) = 32

r^5 = 2^5

Hence, r = 2

Answers

Answer:

[tex]PQR = 20[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Bisector: QS

[tex]PQS = 5x[/tex]

[tex]RQS = 2x + 6[/tex]

Required

Determine PQR

Since PQR is bisected to PQS and RQS, we have that

[tex]PQS = RQS[/tex]

Substitute expressions for PQS and RQS

[tex]5x = 2x + 6[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]5x - 2x = 6[/tex]

[tex]3x = 6[/tex]

Divide both sides by 3

[tex]x = 2[/tex]

Solving for PQR;

[tex]PQR = PQS + RQS[/tex]

[tex]PQR = 5x + 2x + 6[/tex]

[tex]PQR = 7x + 6[/tex]

Points A, P, and B are collinear on AB, and PB:AB = 2/7. A is located on the origin (0,0), P is located at (10, -5), and B is located at (x, y). Which axis is closer to B, the x-axis or the y-axis? Justify your answer.

I don't know how to show the work.

Answers

Answer:

The x-axis is closer to B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the ratio PB:AB = 2/7 is positive, the line divides internally. So, we use the equation for the coordinates of a point that internally divide a line.

So, x = (mx₂ + nx₁)/(m + n) and y = (my₂ + ny₁)/(m + n)

where PB/AB = 2/7 = n/m. So, n = 2 and m = 7

Also, Point A = (0,0) = (x₁, y₁) and point P = (10, -5) = (x₂, y₂).

Substituting these values into x and y, we have

x = (mx₂ + nx₁)/(m + n)

x = (7(10) + 2(0)₁)/(7 + 2)

x = (70 + 0)/9

x = 70/9

x = 7⁷/₉

y = (my₂ + ny₁)/(m + n)

y = (7(-5) + 2(0)₁)/(7 + 2)

y = (-35 + 0)/9

y = -35/9

y = -3⁸/₉

So, the x and y coordinates of B are  7⁷/₉ and  -3⁸/₉ respectively. So, point B is -3⁸/₉ units away from the x-axis and 7⁷/₉ units away from the y-axis. So the x-axis is closer to B.

Benito embroiders and sells T-shirts. The graph shows his profit as a function of the number of shirts sold.

Group of answer choices The x-intercept represents the shirts he has to sell before making a profit. Benito increases the price after selling 50 shirts. The y-intercept represents the cost of one T-shirt. The domain of the function is {x | x is a real number greater than or equal to 0}.

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is;

The x-intercept represents the shirts he has to sell before making a profit

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data are;

(0, -20), (1, -10), (2, 0), (3, 10), (4, 20), (5, 30), (6, 40), (7, 50), (8, 25), (9, 40), (10, 55), (11, 70)

The data show a linear relationship because successive data point increases by the same amount of 10 for x between 0 and 7 and 15  for x between 8 and 11;

Therefore;

Slope, m of the first linear portion using points (2, 0), and, (4, 20) gives;

m =  (20 - 0)/(4 - 2) = 10

The equation of the line is therefore;

y - 20 = 10·(x - 4)

y = 10·x - 40 + 20

y = 10·x - 20

The y-intercept (x = 0) is y = -20

The x-intercept (y = 0) is found as follows;

0 = 10·x - 20

20 = 10·x

10·x = 20

x = 20/10 = 2

Therefore, when x = 2 we have;

Profit = y = 10·x - 20 = 10×2 - 20 = 0

Which can be expressed as, he has to sell more than 2 shirts to make profit

Therefore, the correct option is that the x-intercept represents the shirts he has to sell before making a profit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Functions can be symmetrical in two ways: They can be symmetrical across a line or symmetrical across a point.

In a Square root function, when reflected across the y-axis, the graph has no symmetry because -x returns a different value when plugged into the function.

For a Greatest Integer function, with [tex]\lfloor x \rfloor[/tex], if we change the value of x to -x and we floor -x, we get a different value than the original.

Combining like terms.

27 = 6x - 21

Adding 21 to both sides.

What is a line segment?

A line segment in mathematics has two different points on it that define its boundaries. A line segment is sometimes referred to as a section of a path that joins two places.

If EF = 2x - 8, FG = 4x - 13, and EG = 27.

Point F lies on the line segment EG. Then we have

EG = EF + FG

27 = 2x - 8 + 4x - 13

27 = 6x - 21

6 = 6x

x = 1

Then the value of the variable x will be 1.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle by transformation with the rule (x, y)→(x−1, y+2) gives a triangle with vertices (-3,0), (6,5), and (3,7) and has been graphed.

How to plot a graph?

A graph is a diagram that shows the fluctuation of one variable in relation to one or more other variables.

In order to plot the graph, we need to find out y's values corresponding to x's value

After that, we need to substitute the values of x's and y's into the coordinate geometry.

The transformation of the given triangle by rule  (x, y)→(x−1, y+2) will

result in an increment of all y's values by 2 and a decrement of x's by 1.

(-2,-2) →  (-3,0)

(7,3) →  (6,5)

(4.5) → (3,7)

Hence "The triangle by transformation with the rule (x, y)→(x−1, y+2) gives a triangle with vertices (-3,0), (6,5), and (3,7)".
