Explanation:
Think of x as a placeholder for a number. For me, I tend to think of it as a box. It's handy that the letter x is part of box, to help make that connection better. We have some box and inside the box goes a number.
If we multiply 5 by whatever is in the box, we can write it like [tex]5*\square[/tex]
Then let's say we fill that box with the value 7. We would then have [tex]5*\boxed{7}[/tex]
If we put 3 in the box instead we'll have [tex]5*\boxed{3}[/tex] and so on
Unfortunately the box symbol isn't something we could easily write on a keyboard, so we go with x instead to make life simpler.
--------------------------
So far we've shown that "5 times a number" turns into 5*x or just 5x.
From here we subtract off 3 to get 5x-3 as the final answer. Whatever the result of 5x is, we subtract off 3.
The answer would not be 3-5x since this means "subtract 5x from 3". The order of subtraction matters. In general, A-B is not the same as B-A.

Method 1: Since the interior angle 140 degrees, the supplement of this is the exterior angle and equal to 40 degrees. Hence the number of sides is 360/40 = 9 sides.
A sum of money amounts to ₹9800 after 5 years and ₹12005 after 8 years at the same rate of simple interest. What will be the rate of interest?
[Irrelevant answers will be reported]
Answers
Answer:
12%
Step-by-step explanation:
We can get SI of 3 years = 12005 - 9800 = 2205
SI for 5 years = (2205/3)*5 = 3675 [so that we can get principal amount after deducting SI]
Principal = 12005 - 3675 = 6125
So Rate = (100*3675)/(6125*5) = 12%

(05.01)A picture is 5 inches wide and 8 inches tall: A rectangle is shown. The length of the rectangle is labeled 5 inches. The width of the rectangle is labeled 8 inches. A photographer wants to use a scale factor of 2.5 to enlarge a picture. What will the area of the picture be after it is enlarged? 40 in2 250 in2 100 in2 81.9 in2
Answers
Answer:
B. 250 in²Step-by-step explanation:
Dimensions of the picture:
5 in and 8 inArea of the picture:
5*8 = 40 in²Scale factor = 2.5
Enlarged picture's area:
40*2.5*2.5 = 250 in² (scale factor affects both dimensions)Option B is correct
The area of the picture after it is enlarged is 250 inches².
Given that,
The length of the rectangle is labeled 5 inches. The width of the rectangle is labeled 8 inches.
A photographer wants to use a scale factor of 2.5 to enlarge a picture.
Based on the above information, the calculation is as follows:
Here, the dimensions of the picture are 5 in and 8 in
Hence, the area of the picture is,
5 × 8 = 40 in²
Since, Scale factor = 2.5
So, the enlarged picture's area would be,
40 × 2.5 ×2.5
= 250 in²

what is the answer to the question?
Answers
Answer:
120°
Step-by-step explanation:
m<ABD+m<DBC=m<ABC
61°+59°=120°
hope this helped!
Answer:
We conclude that the value of m∠ABC = 120°
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
m∠ABD = 61°
m ∠DBC = 59°
To Determine
m∠ABC = ?
It is clear that the value of m∠ABC can be determined by adding m∠ABD and m∠DBC because m∠ABC the segment BD divides the angle m∠ABC into two adjacent angles m∠ABD and ∠DBC.
Therefore,
m∠ABC = m∠ABD + m∠DBC
= 61° + 59° ∵ m∠ABD = 61°, m ∠DBC = 59°
= 120°
Therefore, we conclude that the value of m∠ABC = 120°

Answers
Answer:
Average rate of change for the function [tex]f(x)= x^2-x-1[/tex] over the interval -1<x<1 is -1
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find average rate of change of f over the interval -1 < x < 1
The function given is: [tex]f(x)= x^2-x-1[/tex]
The formula used to find average rate of change is:
[tex]Average\:rate\:of\:change=\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}[/tex]
We have, a = -1 and b = 1
Finding f(b) when b=1
[tex]f(x)=x^2-x-1\\f(1)=(1)^2-(1)-1\\f(1)=1-1-1\\f(1)=-1[/tex]
Now, finding f(a), when a= -1
[tex]f(x)=x^2-x-1\\f(-1)=(-1)^2-(-1)-1\\f(1)=1+1-1\\f(-1)=2-1\\f(-1)=1[/tex]
Now, putting values and finding average rate of change
[tex]Average\:rate\:of\:change=\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}\\Average\:rate\:of\:change=\frac{f(1)-f(-1)}{1-(-1)}\\Average\:rate\:of\:change=\frac{-1-(1)}{1-(-1)}\\Average\:rate\:of\:change=\frac{-1-1}{1+1}\\Average\:rate\:of\:change=\frac{-2}{2}\\Average\:rate\:of\:change=-1[/tex]
So, average rate of change for the function [tex]f(x)= x^2-x-1[/tex] over the interval -1<x<1 is -1
