For what values of [tex]x[/tex] is the product [tex](x+5)(x-1)[/tex] positive? Explain.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]x<-5\text{ or } x>1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have:

[tex](x+5)(x-1)[/tex]

And we want to find the value of x such that the expression is positive. So, we can write this as the following inequality:

[tex](x+5)(x-1)>0[/tex]

Solve for the inequality. First, we can solve for the zeros like a normal quadratic. So, pretend the inequality is with an equal sign:

[tex](x+5)(x-1)=0[/tex]

Zero Product Property:

[tex]x+5=0\text{ or } x-1=0[/tex]

On the left, subtract 5.

On the right, add 1.

So, our zeros are:

[tex]x=-5, 1[/tex]

Since our inequality is a greater than, our answer is an "or" inequality with our answer being all the values to the left of our lesser zero and all the values to the right of our greater zero.

So, our solution is:

[tex]x<-5\text{ or } x>1[/tex]

And we're done!

Answer 2

Answer:

The regions where (x+5) (x-1) >0 is x< -5  or x>1

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+5) (x-1) >0

First find the zeros

(x+5) =0    x-1 =0

x= -5      x=1

We then have to check the regions

x< -5              -5 <x<1                  x>1

First x< -5

(x+5) (x-1)

X+5 will be negative  ( x-1) will be negative

(-) * (-) = +  so the values will be positive

Then     -5 <x<1      

X+5  will be positive   ( x-1) will be negative

( +) * (-)  will be negative

First x>1

(x+5) (x-1)

X+5 will be positive  ( x-1) will be positive

(+) * (+) = +  so the values will be positive

The regions where (x+5) (x-1) >0 is x< -5  or x>1

what is wrong with the equation? ​

Answers

Answer:

I think X=3

Step-by-step explanation:

When adding fractions you have to find a common  denominator, the easiest way is to use the other number for it. So with [tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex] you would multiply the top and bottom by 6, and with [tex]\frac{x}{6}[/tex] you would multiply both the top and bottom by 2. You should then have [tex]\frac{6x}{12}[/tex]+[tex]\frac{2x}{12}[/tex]. You add the tops together which will leave you with 8x and the bottom stays the same. Then you multiply the the 2 by the 12, and when doing this the 12 will cancel out. leaving you with 8x= 24. Finally you divide 24 by 8 and X is 3.

Newton has 10 more dimes than nickels. He has
twice the number of quarters than nickels. If he
has $6.20, how many of each coin does he have?

Answers

Given:

Newton has 10 more dimes than nickels.

He has  twice the number of quarters than nickels.

Total amount he has = $6.20.

To find:

The number of each coin.

Solution:

Let the number of nickels be x.

Newton has 10 more dimes than nickels.

Dimes = x+10

He has  twice the number of quarters than nickels.

Quarters = 2x

We know that, 1 nickel = $0.05, 1 dime = $0.10 and 1 quarter = $0.25.

Total amount he has is $6.20.

[tex]x\times 0.05+(x+10)\times 0.10+2x\times 0.25=6.20[/tex]

[tex]0.05x+0.10x+1+0.50x=6.20[/tex]

[tex]0.65x=6.20-1[/tex]

[tex]0.65x=5.20[/tex]

Divide both sides by 0.65.

[tex]x=\dfrac{5.20}{0.65}[/tex]

[tex]x=8[/tex]

Now,

Number of nickels = 8

Number of dimes = 8 + 10 = 18

Number of quarters = 2(8) = 16

Therefore, the number of nickels, dimes and quarters are 8, 18 and 16 respectively.

Find x: 2(4x − 3) − 8 = 4 + 2x

Answers

x = 3

2(4x - 3) - 8 = 4 + 2x

1. Distribute

8x - 6 - 8 = 4 + 2x

2. Collect like terms

8x - 14 = 4 + 2x

3. Collect like terms again (add 14 and subtract 2x)

6x = 18

4. Divide by 6

x = 3
Expand the bracket to get 8x - 6 - 8= 2x + 4
Take away 2x from both sides:
6x - 6 = 4
Add 6 and 8 to both sides and you end up with
6x = 18
Now for this step you divide both sides by 6 so that the coefficient of x is 1. You end up with x = 3. Hope that this helps and have a great rest of your day.

m<FGH=32

m<HGI=32

m<FGI=64

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you're going to do is form an equation using 5x-8 and 6x-16. The reason for this is because the two angles FGH and HGI are congruent. You form an equation by setting the two equal to each other. LIke this:

5x-8=6x-16

Then you will find x which is 8. After you find x just plug in x for one of the equations like so:

5(8)-8=_  or 6(8)-16=_

You only need to plug in x for one of the angles because they are congruent so you will get the same answer.

To find the measurment of FGI you add the values from FGH and HGI together (32+32) and you'll get 64.

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 3 > 48

Subtract 3 to both sides

5x > 45

Divide by 5 to both sides

x = 9

To check if the answer is correct, you can always plug in 9 instead of x and solve the equation.

Answers

An equilateral triangle is a triangle in which all three sides have the same length[tex].[/tex]

⭆ 3x = 14 + 4

⭆ 3x = 18

⭆ x = 18/3

x = 6

In equilateral triangle, all three internal angles are also same and each are of 60°.

⭆ 5y - 5 = 60

⭆ 5y = 60 + 5

plug in 1 for z in x+2z=30 to get x+2(1)=30. Then you should get x+2=30 which is x=28.

Then, plug 1 in for the second equation of y+z=12 so you get y+1=12. Then you should get y=11.

You have at most $3.65 to make copies for a school project. Each copy costs $0.25. Write and solve an inequality that represents the number of copies you can make.

Answers

The equation for the problem is [tex]0.25x[/tex] ≤ [tex]3.65[/tex]

Hope it helps!

You can make the maximum number of copies would be 14.6 which is determined by the inequality 0.25x ≤ 3.65 where x represents the number of copies.

What is inequality?

Inequality is defined as mathematical statements that have a minimum of two terms containing variables or numbers that are not equal.

What are Arithmetic operations?

Arithmetic operations can also be specified by subtracting, dividing, and multiplying built-in functions. The operator that performs the arithmetic operation is called the arithmetic operator.

You have at most $3.65 to make copies for a school project. Each copy costs $0.25 which is given in the question.

As per the given condition, the required inequality would be:

⇒ 0.25x ≤ 3.65

Here x represents the number of copies

⇒ 0.25x ≤ 3.65

Divided by 0.25 both sides of the inequality, and we get

⇒ x ≤ 3.65/0.25

⇒ x ≤ 14.6

Therefore, you can make the maximum number of copies would be 14.6.
