Answer: a = -10

Concept:

When an equation has no solution, in most cases, it means that the variables are being canceled out, and left with unequal constants.

For example:

                                             2x + 3 = 2 +2x

The 2x can be canceled out on both sides, which left us with:

                                                     3 = 2

3 does not equal to 2, therefore, it has no solution

Solve:

Given equation

4 (5x + 1) = -2 (ax + 4)

Expand the parenthesis

4 (5x) + 4 (1) = -2 (ax) + (-2) (4)

20x + 4 = -2ax - 8

According to the concept, we need to make the variables equal to cancel them out and left with unequal constants

20x = -2ax

Divide x on both sides

20x / x = -2ax / x

20 = -2a

Divide -2 on both sides

20 / -2 = -2a / -2

The equation in point slope form is given as y+3 = -5/8(x-4)

The formula for calculating the equation of a line in point-slope form is expressed as:

y-y1= m(x-x1)

Given the coordinate point

Slope = 2-(-3)/-2-4
Slope = 5/-8

Determine the equation

y-(-3) =-5/8(x-4)

y+3 = -5/8(x-4)

Hence the equation in point slope form is given as y+3 = -5/8(x-4)

The transformation that occurred after the dilation of the parallelogram is a translation of 9 units to the right.

A unique variety of quadrilateral made up of parallel lines is called a parallelogram. A parallelogram can have any angle between its neighboring sides, but it must have opposite sides that are parallel for it to be a parallelogram. If the opposite sides of a quadrilateral are parallel and congruent, it will be a parallelogram. Consequently, a quadrilateral in which both pairs of opposite sides are parallel and equal is referred to as a parallelogram.

The initial parallelogram was dilated by a scale factor of 2 about point P.

The points of the initial parallelogram are: (-4, 0), (-2, 0), (-3, -3), (-5, -3).

The parallelogram obtained on dilation will have the points: (-6, 0), (-2, 0), (-4, -6), (-8, -6).

The points of the final parallelogram are: (3, 0), (7, 0), (5, -6), (1, -6).  

(-6,0) →(3,0)  ⇒ (x,y)→(x+h , y+k)

x = -6 , x+h = 3 ⇒ h=3-x = 3-(-6) = 9

y = 0 , y+k = 0 ⇒ k = 0

The transformation rule is (x,y)→( x+9 , y )

That is, a translation of 9 units to the right.

Answer:

429/7 kg or 61 2/7 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

I'll answer according to how I understand this problem, but I'm not sure this is correct.

"39 kg of rice is taken out of bag of rice. If 8/22 of the rice is left, what was the original weight of the rice in the bag?"

8/22 is a strange number to work with because it could have been given as 4/11. This is another reason I'm not too sure about this problem.

8/22 = 4/11

If 4/11 is left, then since 11/11 - 4/11 = 7/11, 7/11 of the rice remains.

7/11 x = 39

x = 39 × 11/7

x = 429/7

The equation of the directrix is y = -5

The equation is given as:

(x -1)^2 = 12(y + 2)

Express 12 as a product of 4 and 3

(x -1)^2 = 4 * 3(y + 2)

The parabola is represented as:

The number of bacteria present after 15 hours is 18928

An exponential equation is represented as;

y = ab^x

Where

a = y, when x = 0

From the table, we have:

y = 1796 when x = 0

So, we have:

y = 1796b^x

Also, we have the point (1, 2097)

This gives

2097 = 1796b^1

Divide by 1796

b = 1.17

Substitute b = 1.17 in y = 1796b^x

y = 1796(1.17)^x

This means that the exponential equation is y = 1796(1.17)^x

After 15 hours, we have:

y = 1796(1.17)^15

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the total of interior angles can be used together with the given angle values to write an equation for the number of sides.

The total of interior angles of an n-sided polygon is 180°×(n -2). In the given n-sided polygon, two angles are 120° and (n -2) angles are 150°. The total of angles is the same either way it is computed:

  2×120 +(n -2)150 = (n -2)180

Subtracting (n-2)150, we have ...

  240 = 30(n -2)

  8 = n -2 . . . . . . . . divide by 30

  10 = n . . . . . . . . add 2

The polygon has 10 sides.

The total of interior angles is ...

  angle sum = 180°×(10 -2) = 1440°

The sum of interior angles is 1440°.

Answer:

10 sides and

1440° total of interior angles.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of degrees in a polygon (sum of interior angles) is:

(n - 2)×180

This is the total. Here, n is the number of sides (same as the number of angles)

In your question, 2 of the angles are 120° and the remaining angles are 150°.

If n is ALL the angles, then (n-2) is all the 150° angles because the other 2 are 120°

So we can write an equation:

Our polygon:

120°+120°+(n-2)150°

=

(n-2)180°

Combine like terms:

240+(n-2)150=(n-2)180

Use Distributive property.

240+150n-300=180n-360

Again, combine like terms.

300 = 30n

Divide.

10 = n

n is the number of sides (and angles).

Check:

Ten-sided shape:

(10-2)180

= 1440°

Our shape:

120°+120°+ 8(150°)

= 240° + 1200°

= 1440° Check!

b) There will be 1292 cells after 10 hours.

An increasing exponential function is modeled by:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1 + r)^{\frac{t}{n}}[/tex]

In which:

For this problem, the parameters are:

A(0) = 200, r = 0.75, n = 3.

Hence the equation is:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1 + r)^{\frac{t}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = 200(1 + 0.75)^{\frac{t}{3}}[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = 200(1.75)^{\frac{t}{3}}[/tex]

The number of cells after 10 hours is:

[tex]A(t) = 200(1.75)^{\frac{t}{3}}[/tex]

Answer: [tex]g(x) \ge f(x)[/tex] for all x such that [tex]x\le-2[/tex] or [tex]x\ge0[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is essentially asking at what x values would the graph of g(x) be greater than (higher than) or equal to f(x).

In the graph, we can see that g(x) is greater than (or higher than) f(x) at all x's before (to the left of) point E and after (to the right of) point A. An easy way to find the points E and A is by setting f(x) = g(x).

[tex]f(x)=g(x)\\1-x^2=2x+1\\1=x^2+2x+1\\0=x^2+2x\\0=x(x+2)\\x=0\hspace{0.1cm}or\hspace{0.1cm}x=-2[/tex]

Since any value with x=-2 is left of the y-axis, we know that point E would have its x-coordinate as -2. Similarly, any point on the y-axis would have x=0; therefore, we can tell that point A would have its x-coordinate at 0.

If we remember that g(x) is greater than f(x) to the left of E and to the right of A, we can say that

[tex]g(x) \ge f(x)[/tex] for all x such that [tex]x\le-2[/tex] or [tex]x\ge0[/tex]
