What is the coefficient in the expression shown? 42+2c

zzz [12365]

There exist two coefficients: one pertains to x raised to the first degree, and another corresponds to the zeroth degree of x (the constant term).

Thus:
the coefficient for the constant term is 42 (i.e. 42x^0=42).
the coefficient for the linear term is 2 (i.e. 2x^1=2x)

Kendra charges $11 to shovel a driveway. She shoveled 4 driveways on Saturday and then some more on Sunday. She made $143 for th

Svet_ta [12734]

Let the quantity of driveways shoveled on Sunday be x

For 4 driveways, Kendra charges = 4*11=44

Thus,

143 = 44 + 11x

And this equation models the situation described.

By subtracting 44 from both sides,[

143-44 = 11x

99 = 11x

Dividing both sides by 11 results in

x = 9

Thus, she shoveled 9 driveways on Sunday.

Leona [12618]

Answer How much of a 20% acid solution should be blended with 30 liters of a 50% acid solution in order to achieve a 40% solution.... x=15 liters 15*(.20 pure acid)=3 liters 30*(.50 pure acid)=15 liters That totals 18 liters of pure acid, resulting in a final mixture of 45 liters which contains 0.45 pure acid=18 liters.

What is the inverse of the function f(x) = one-quarterx – 12? h(x) = 48x – 4 h(x) = 48x + 4 h(x) = 4x – 48 h(x) = 4x + 48

Zina [12379]

The inverse function is defined as h(x) = 4x + 48. To derive it from f(x) = 1/4x - 12, substitute y = f(x) and rearrange the equation to isolate x as shown, leading to h(x).
