What is the value of x in the equation below?
3(12x-24) = 16
A) 2
B) 6
C) 8
D) 10



ANSWER: B) 6

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

3(12x - 24) = 16 (use the distributive property)

36x - 72 = 16  (add 72 to both sides to get the x-term alone)

36x = 88 (divide both sides by 36 to isolate x)

x = 2.4 (the four is repeating. that's the exact answer.)

I would say the answer is A because 2.4 is close to 2 than any of the other answers.

x= -3/2

x= -3i

Step-by-step explanation:

f (x) = 2x3 + 3x2 + 18x + 27

Set 2x^3 + 3x^2 + 18x + 27 equal to 0.

2x^3 + 3x^2 + 18x + 27 = 0

Solve for x.

Factor the left side of the equation.

Factor out the greatest common factor from each group.

x^2 (2x + 3) + 9 (2x + 3) = 0

Factor the polynomial by factoring out the greatest common factor, 2x + 3. (2x + 3) (x^2 + 9) = 0

If any individual factor on the left side of the equation is equal to 0, the entire expression will be equal to 0.

2x + 3 = 0

x^2 + 9 = 0

Set 2x + 3 equal to 0 and solve for x.

Set 2x + 3 equal to 0. 2x + 3 = 0

Solve 2x + 3 = 0 for x. Tap for more steps...  

3 x = − 2

 

Set x2 + 9 equal to 0 and solve for x.

Set x2 + 9 equal to 0. x2 + 9 = 0

Solve x2 + 9 = 0 for x.

x = 3i, −3i

The final solution is all the values that make (2x + 3) (x2 + 9) = 0 true.

4) There is only one point on the coordinate plane with an x-value of 2 and a y-value of 2.

Answers

Answer:Choice A)  All points with an x-value of 3 are located in Quadrant I.

We can show it is false through the use of a counter example. For instance, the point (3, -5) is not in quadrant 1, but rather in quadrant 4.

We would need to say "all points with x value 3 and positive y value" to ensure the point is in quadrant 1.

A 300 room hotel can rent every one of its rooms at $80 per room. For every $1 increase in rent, 3 fewer rooms are rented.
How much should the hotel charge for each room to maximize its daily revenue? What is the maximum daily revenue?

Answers

Answer:

The hotel charge for each room to maximize its daily revenue and the maximum daily revenue is explained below in details.

Step-by-step explanation:

So for every $1 hike in price, the number of rooms goes underneath by 1.

So the earnings can be displayed by R(x) = (300-x)(80+x)

From that, you require to subtract 22(300-x) since it takes $22 per occupied room.

AND there is a framed cost of $1000 per day.

So your profit function is P(x) = (300-x)(80+x) - 22(300-x) - 1000

Simplified, this is P(x) = -x2 +242x + 16400.

P'(x) = -2x + 242  Set it = to 0

x = 121 which displayed the number of unoccupied rooms.

P(121) = -14641 + 29282 + 16400 = $31041

You can verify by computing P(120) and P(122) which both even $31040.

CR = CU - RU

In Triangle ISR,

Angle 3 = 180° - Angle 4(Angles on a straight line)

NourseChapter 1. Trouble Times TwoThe sun was glowing dull red as it slipped down behind the curving horizon of Mars, but Gregory Hunter was not able to see it.There was no viewscreen in the ship's cabin; it was too tiny for that. Greg twisted around in the cockpit that had been built just big enough to hold him, and shifted his long legs against the brace-webbing, trying to get them comfortable.He knew he was afraid ... but nobody else knew that, not even the captain waiting at the control board on the satellite, and in spite of the fear Greg Hunter would not have traded places at this moment with anyone else in the universe.He had worked too hard and waited too long for this moment.He heard the count-down monitor clicking in his ears, and his hands clenched into fists. How far from Mars would he be 10 minutes from now? He didn't know. Farther than any man had ever traveled before in the space of 10 minutes, he knew, and faster. How far and how fast would depend on him alone."All set, Greg?" It was the captain's voice in the earphones."All set, Captain.""You understand the program?"Greg nodded. "24 hours out, 24 hours back, 90 degrees to the ecliptic1, and all the acceleration2 I can stand both ways."Greg grinned to himself. He thought of the months of conditioning he had gone through to prepare for this run ... the hours in the centrifuge to build up his tolerance to acceleration, the careful diet, the rigorous hours of physical conditioning. It was only one experiment, one tiny step in the work that could someday give men the stars, but to Gregory Hunter at this moment it was everything."Good luck, then." The captain cut off, and the blastoff buzzer sounded.He was off. His heart hammered in his throat, and his eyes ached fiercely, but he paid no attention. His finger crept to the air-speed indicator, then to the cut-off switch. When the pressure became too great, when he began to black out, he would press it.But not yet. It was speed they wanted; they had to know how much acceleration a man could take for how long and still survive, and now it was up to him to show them.Fleetingly, he thought of Tom ... poor old stick-in-the-mud Tom, working away in his grubby little Mars-bound laboratory, watching bacteria grow. Tom could never have qualified for a job like this. Tom couldn't even go into free-fall for 10 minutes without getting sick all over the place. Greg felt a surge of pity for his brother, and then a twinge of malicious anticipation. Wait until Tom heard the reports on this run! It was all right to spend your time poking around with bottles and test tubes if you couldn't do anything else, but it took something special to pilot an XP ship for Project Star-Jump. And after this run was over, even Tom would have to admit it....There was a lurch, and quite suddenly the enormous pressure was gone.Something was wrong. He hadn't pushed the cut-off button, yet the ship's engines were suddenly silent. He jabbed at the power switch. Nothing happened. Then the side-jets sputted, and he was slammed sideways into the cot.He snapped on the radio speaker. "Control ... can you hear me?

One major reason is that they create rules. But what rules are necessary or desirable? That is open to question, and different types of governments have certainly created a wide variety of rules.GOVERNMENTs almost certainly originated with the need to protect people from conflicts and to provide law and order. Why have conflicts among people happened throughout history? Many people, both famous and ordinary, have tried to answer that question. Perhaps human nature dictates selfishness, and people inevitably will come to blows over who gets what property or privilege. Or maybe, as KARL MARX explains, it is because the very idea of "PROPERTY" makes people selfish and greedy.Whatever the reasons, governments first evolved as people discovered that protection was easier if they stayed together in groups and if they all agreed that one (or some) in the group should have more power than others. This recognition is the basis of SOVEREIGNTY, or the right of a group (later a country) to be free of outside interference.A country, then, needs to not only protect its citizens from one another, but it needs to organize to prevent outside attack. Sometimes they have built Great Walls and guarded them carefully from invaders. Other times they have led their followers to safe areas protected by high mountains, wide rivers, or vast deserts. Historically, they have raised armies, and the most successful ones have trained and armed special groups to defend the rest. Indeed in the twentieth century, governments have formed alliances and fought great world wars in the name of protection and order.In more recent years, government responsibilities have extended to the economy and public service. An early principle of capitalism dictates that markets should be free from government control. But when economies spun out of control during the 1930s, and countries sank into great depressions, governments acted. The United States Congress created the FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM in the early twentieth century to ward off inflation and monitor the value of the dollar. FRANKLIN ROOSEVELT and his "BRAIN TRUST" devised New Deal programs to shock the country into prosperity.Perhaps government responsibility to provide social programs to its citizens is the most controversial of all. In the United States the tradition began with the New Deal programs, many of which provided people with relief through jobs, payments, and food. During the 1960s PRESIDENT LYNDON JOHNSON unveiled his "GREAT SOCIETY" programs aimed at eliminating poverty in the entire country. Many European countries today provide national medical insurance and extensive welfare benefits. Many Americans criticize these programs as expensive ventures that destroy the individual's sense of responsibility for his/her own well being. So the debate over the proper role of government in providing for its people's general welfare is still alive and well today.Though the rules and responsibilities vary greatly through time and place, governments must create them. Governments provide the parameters for everyday behavior for citizens, protect them from outside interference, and often provide for their well-being and happiness.
