Any help with this question please?

Consider this equation.
c = ax – bx
Joseph claims that if a, b, and c are non-negative integers, then the equation has exactly one solution for x. Select all cases that show Joseph’s claim is incorrect.
A. a – b = 1, c ≠ 1
B. a = b, c = 0
C. a ≠ b, c = 0
D. a – b = 1, c = 0
E. a = b, c ≠ 0

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B.a=b, c≠0

C.a=b, c=0

D.a-b=1, c≠1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation given is c = ax - bx. We can factor the right-hand side to obtain an equivalent equation which is c = (a-b)x

Let’s explore each answer choice given. We are looking for cases where there is no one solution for the equation.

A

a-b = 1 so the right-hand side becomes 1x and we have x=c. Since c is 0 we have one solution that is x=0

B

a=b so a-b =0 and the equation becomes 0=c but the answer choice says c does not equal zero. So in this case there is no solution. This is a correct answer to the problem.

C

This is the same as choice B but since C =0 both sides of the equation equal zero. We get 0=0 but notice that this is true no matter what the value of x is so this equation is called identity and any value of x will do so there isn’t one solution but rather infinitely many. This is another right answer.

D

Here a-b=1 so we end up with x = c and since c doesn’t equal one any value of x except 1 is a solution so there isn’t one solution but infinitely many. This too is an answer to the question.

E

Since a doesn’t equal b and since c = 0 we have (a-b)x = 0 so. Either a-b is zero but since a and b are different this can’t be or x is zero. This there is one solution: x=0.

From the above, the answer to the question is choices B, C, and D

A) The correct negation will be :

There is an integer a such that  [tex]\frac{a-1}{a}[/tex] is  an integer

Answer:

One Solution

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \frac{3}{4} x - 7 = 3( \frac{1}{6} x + 1)[/tex]

[tex] = > \frac{3}{4} x - 7 = \frac{1}{2} x + 3[/tex]

[tex] = > \frac{3}{4} x - \frac{1}{2} x = 3 + 7[/tex]

[tex] = > \frac{3 - 2}{4} x = 10[/tex]

[tex] = > \frac{1}{4} x = 10[/tex]

=> x = 10 × 4

=> x = 40

Here,

The variable x whose only one value 40 will solve the equation.

Hence,

It has only one solution. (Ans)

Let f(x) = 9 – x g(x) = 3 – x. Find (f – g)(x)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

This would be easier to understand if it was written like f(x) - g(x). You might see what the question really is.

Equation

(f - g)x = f(x) - g(x)

Solution

(f - g)x = 9 - x - (3 - x)                       remove the brackets

(f - g)x = 9 - x - 3 + x

(f - g)x = 6

Its says in question 4 tue horizontal translation is A right.?

Answers

Answer:

Here we have:

g(x) = 3*f( 2*x - 2) - 1

We want to know the horizontal translation used here.

We need to discuss two types of transformations here.

horizontal translation.

If we have a function f(x), a horizontal translation of N units is written as:

g(x) = f(x + N)

if N is negative, the translation is to the right.

if N is positive, the translation is to the left.

Horizontal dilation.

For a function f(x) an horizontal dilation of scale factor k is written as:

g(x) = f( x/k)

You can see that in our function we have both of these transformations.

Because we compare the translation with f(x), we assume that the horizontal translation is the first thing we did, then we must have

translation:

g(x) = f(x + N)

and now a horizontal dilation of scale factor k

g(x) = f( (x + N)/k)

Then we must have that the argument of the above function is the same as the argument of the given function.

(x + N)/k = 2*x - 2

then:

k = 1/2

(x + N)/1/2 = 2*x + 2*N = 2*x - 2

2*N = -2

N = -2/2 = -1

This means that we have a translation of 1 unit to the right.
