Given the functions f(x) = −2x − 1 and g(x) = −3x + 4, which operation results in the smallest coefficient on the x term?

Answers

Answer 1
There are 3 different operations we can perform. Addition, Subtractions and Multiplication.

Subtraction
(−2x − 1) - (−3x + 4)
x - 5
x coefficient = 1

Addition: 
(−2x − 1) + (−3x + 4)
3 - 5x
x coefficient = -5

Multiplication:
x(6x - 5) -4
x coefficient = 6

-5 is the least so addition is the answer


Answer 2
It’s -3x because it’s the furthest away from zero on the number line.

Since you are multiplying, not dividing, the fractions wouldn't need a common denominator... They would stay the same.

Two pools are being filled with water. To start, the first pool contains 890 liters of water and the second pool is empty. Water is being added to the first pool at a rate of 20.5 liters per minute. Water is being added to the second pool at a rate of 42.75 liters per minute.

Answers

Let x=amount of time it takes both pipes draining together to empty the pool 
First pipe empties at the rate of 540,000/150=3600 liters/min
Second pipe empties at the rate of 540,000/225=2400 liters/min 
Together, both pipes empties at the rate of 3600+2400=6000 liters/min, so our equation to solve is: 
6000*x=540000

The asymptotes are where the graph is undefined. Since: tan(x) =sin(x)/cos(x)
It is where cos(4x-π) = 0

cos(4x-π) = 0 when the inside is -π/2 , π/2 , 3π/2

If an amount of money, called principle, p, is deposited into an account that earns interest at a rate r, compound annually, then in two years that investment will grow to an amount A, given by the formula A=P(1+r)^2. If a principle amount of $5000 grows to $5940.50 in two years, what is the interest rate?

Answers

All u gotta do is plug numbers substituted by the variable into the equation.
A = P(1+r)^t
A = $5940.50 
P = $5000
r = ?
t = 2yrs
$5940.50 = $5000(1+r)^t
--------------    --------------------
  $5000            $5000
1.1881 = (1+r)^2
sqrt(1.1881) = 1+r
1.09 = 1+r
     -1     -1
-------   ----
0.09 = r
r = 0.09

Final answer:

By using the compound interest formula A=P(1+r)² and the given values, we find the interest rate to be approximately 0.09, or 9% annually.

Explanation:

To find the interest rate r that grew the principal P from $5000 to $5940.50 over two years with compound interest, we use the formula A=P(1+r)². Here, A is the amount of money accumulated after n years, including interest. We are given that A is $5940.50 and P is $5000.

Let's plug in the values and solve for r:

5940.50 = 5000(1+r)²
1.1881 = (1+r)²

To find r, we take the square root of 1.1881:

Subtracting 1 from both sides to isolate r, we get:

r = 1.09 - 1
r = 0.09

The approximate interest rate is 0.09, which means the annual interest rate is 9%.

A; f(x) = x + 5
B;f(x) = x + 1
C;f(x) = 2x + 1
D;f(x) = –2x – 1

Answers

the correct answer is A. [tex]\( f(x) = 2x + 1 \).[/tex]

To find the rule for the linear function represented in the table, we can use the formula for a linear function, which is:

[tex]\[ f(x) = mx + b \][/tex]

Where:

- m is the slope of the line

- b is the y-intercept

Given the table:

[tex]\[ \x & : 2, 5, 8, 11 \\f(x) & : 5, 11, 17, 23\end{align}\][/tex]

We can start by finding the slope (m) using the formula:

[tex]\[ m = \frac{{f(x_2) - f(x_1)}}{{x_2 - x_1}} \][/tex]

Let's choose two points from the table, for example, (2, 5) and (5, 11):

[tex]\[ m = \frac{{11 - 5}}{{5 - 2}} \]\[ m = \frac{{6}}{{3}} \]\[ m = 2 \][/tex]

So, we have found that the slope m is 2.

Now, we can use the slope-intercept form of a line to find the y-intercept (b). We can pick any point from the table to do this. Let's use the point (2, 5):

f(x) = mx + b

5 = 2(2) + b

5 = 4 + b

b = 5 - 4

b = 1

So, we have found that the y-intercept b is 1.

Now, we can write the rule for the linear function:

[tex]\[ f(x) = 2x + 1 \][/tex]

Therefore, the correct answer is A. [tex]\( f(x) = 2x + 1 \).[/tex]

The complete question is:

Write a rule for the linear function in the table.

The science club raised money to clean the beach. They spent $29 on trash bags and $74 on waterproof boots. They still have $47 left. How much did they raise?

Answers

29 + 74 is 103. 103 + 47 is 150. they raised $150

Answer:

They raised $150

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this you just need to reverse the actions that they took in order to get to 47 dollars left, so the total amount they raised will be represented by letter X, so 47 is what is left after spending 29 on trash bags and 74 on waterproof boots, that means that from the total we are withdrawing those amounts and the result will be 47:

Total-Money spent=47

X-29 - 74= 47

x=47+74+29

x=150

So now we know that they originally had 150 dollars and that would be what they raised.

When twotwo basketball players are about to have a​ free-throw competition, they often draw names out of a hat to randomly select the order in which they shoot. what is the probability that they shoot free throws in alphabetical​ order? assume each player has a different name?

Answers

There are 2! = 2 ways to arrange the names of two basketball players in a hat.

Since, the are going to throw alphabetically, there is 1 way for the names to be arranged alphabetically.

Therefore, the probability that they shoot free throws in alphabetical​ order is [tex] \frac{1}{2} = 0.5[/tex]

Final answer:

The probability of shooting free throws in alphabetical order is 0.5.

Explanation:

Probability of shooting free throws in alphabetical order:

Determine the total number of ways the players can shoot. There are 2 players, so 2! (2 factorial) = 2 ways.

Calculate the number of ways they can shoot in alphabetical order. As they have different names, only 1 way exists.

Probability = (Number of ways shooting in alphabetical order) / (Total number of ways to shoot) = 1/2 = 0.5.
