Given the equation m + n = 7, we can express m as 7 - n. Then we can rewrite the second equation as 2n - 3(7 - n) = 6. Solving this leads us to find n = -3, which gives us m = 10. We can then calculate 3(-3) + 2(10), resulting in the value of 11.

<span>Starting from the equation m + n = 7 we derive m as 7 - n.
Following with 2n - 3m = 6, we substitute m into the equation: 2n - 3(7 - n) = 6.
This simplifies to 5n - 21 = 6, thus 5n = 27, leading to n = 5.4.
From m + n = 7, m can be calculated as 1.6.
Now that we have m = 1.6 and n = 5.4, we can find the expression
</span>3n - 2m<span>

</span>Calculating this gives us 3(5.4) - 2(1.6), resulting in 16.2 - 3.2, which equals 13.

It is known that Ray AP bisects angle CAT. If m&lt;CAT = 5x+17 and m&lt;PAT = 3x-4, then determine the value of x.​
tester [8859]

Answer:

x = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that ray AP divides angle CAT, it implies that

\angle CAT=\angle CAP+\angle PAT

Also, \angle CAP = \angle PAT

This leads to, \angle CAT=2\angle PAT

As stated,

\angle CAT = 5x+17 \ \text{and}\ \text{PAT}=3x-4

Consequently,

5x+17=2(3x-4)\\\\5x+17=6x-8

Grouping similar terms together,

5x-6x=-8-17\\\\-x=-25\\\\x=25

Thus, x is 25.

Graph a system of equations to solve log (−5.6x + 1.3) = −1 − x. Round to the nearest tenth. From the least to the greatest, the
zzz [9093]

Response:

  • Refer to the attached graph
  • x₁ ≈ - 2.1
  • x₂ ≈ 0.2

Clarification:

To analyze log (−5.6x + 1.3) = −1 − x visually, graph these equations on the same coordinate system:

  • Equation 1: y = log (5.6x + 1.3)
  • Equation 2: y = - 1 - x

The first equation can be graphed using these characteristics of logarithmic functions:

  • Domain: values must be positive ⇒ -5.6x + 1.3 > 0 ⇒ x < 13/56 (≈ 0.23)

  • Range: all real values (- ∞, ∞)
  • x-intercept:

        log ( -5.6x + 1.3) = 0 ⇒ -5.6x + 1.3 = 1 ⇒ x = 0.3/5.6 ≈ 0.054

  • y-intercept:

       x = 0 ⇒ log (0 + 1.3) = log (1.3) ≈ 0.11

  • Choose additional values to create a table:

        x            log (-5.6x + 1.3)

        -1           0.8

        -2           1.1

        -3           1.3

  • This graph is shown in the attached image: it's represented by the red curve.

Graphing the second equation is simpler as it forms a straight line: y = - 1 - x

  • slope, m = - 1 (the coefficient of x)
  • y-intercept, b = - 1 (the constant term)
  • x-intercept: y = 0 = - 1 - x ⇒ x = - 1
  • This graph is indicated by the blue line in the image.

The resolution to the equations corresponds to the points where the two graphs intersect. The graphing method thus allows you to determine the x coordinates of these intersection points. Ordered from smallest to largest, rounded to the nearest tenth, we have:

  • x₁ ≈ - 2.1
  • x₂ ≈ 0.2

Which is the solution of the quadratic equation (4y – 3)2 = 72? y = StartFraction 3 + 6 StartRoot 2 EndRoot Over 4 EndFraction a
Inessa [9023]

Answer:

y = \frac{3 + 6\sqrt{2} }{4} y y = \frac{3 - 6\sqrt{2} }{4}

y = StartFraction 3 + 6 StartRoot 2 EndRoot Over 4 EndFraction y = StartFraction 3 menos 6 StartRoot 2 EndRoot Over 4 EndFraction

Explicación paso a paso:

La ecuación cuadrática que tenemos es (4y - 3)² = 72

Debemos encontrar el valor de y.

Ahora, 4y - 3 = ± 6√2

⇒ 4y = 3 ± 6√2

⇒ y = \frac{3 + 6\sqrt{2} }{4} y y = \frac{3 - 6\sqrt{2} }{4}

Por lo tanto, las soluciones son y = StartFraction 3 + 6 StartRoot 2 EndRoot Over 4 EndFraction y y = StartFraction 3 menos 6 StartRoot 2 EndRoot Over 4 EndFraction (Respuesta)

Initially, there were only 86 weeds in the garden. The weeds grew at a rate of 29% each week. The following function represents
AnnZ [9117]

Step-by-step answer:

The base of the exponential function is set at 1.29 for a period of 7 days, which is expressed as

f(x) = 86*(1.29)^x

To determine the daily rate, divide the variable x by 7 (keeping x as the number of weeks), resulting in

f(x) = 86*1.29^(x/7)

Applying the exponent rule, b^(x/a) = b^(x*(1/a)) = (b^(1/a))^x

we can simplify by setting b=1.29, a=7 to arrive at

f(x) = 86*(1.29^(1/7))^x

f(x) = 86*(1.037)^x since evaluating 1.29^(1/7) yields approximately 1.037

Rounding 1.037 to 1.04 gives a (VERY) rough estimate function

f(x) = 86 * (1.04^x)

1.04 is only an approximation because 1.04^7 is expected to return 1.29, it actually results in 1.316; meanwhile, 1.037^7 returns 1.2896, which is much closer to 1.29.

Angie baked 100 cookies and 20 brownies. She wants to  split them into equal groups  for the big sale. Each group must have the
zzz [9093]
Avoid repeating the question as it can be perplexing.

Given 100 cookies and 20 brownies,
What is the highest number you can divide them equally by?

To find the greatest common factor,
Factor them:
100 = 2*2*5*5
20 = 2*2*5
Thus, the greatest common factor, which is shared between them, is 2*2*5 or 20.

Calculating further, 100/20=5
20/20=1

This means there are 20 groups, each containing 5 cookies and 1 brownie.
