Answer:
m = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question given,
m(2x − 3) + n(x + 1) = 5x for all real numbers x.
Since x is a real number, we can obtain the value of m as follow:
Let x = 1
m(2x − 3) + n(x + 1) = 5x
m(2×1 − 3) + n(1 + 1) = 5×1
m(2 – 3) + n(2) = 5
m(– 1) + n(2) = 5
– m + 2n = 5 ...... (1)
Let x = 2
m(2x − 3) + n(x + 1) = 5x
m(2×2 − 3) + n(2 + 1) = 5×2
m(4 – 3) + n(3) = 10
m(1) + n(3) = 10
m + 3n = 10 ...... (2)
– m + 2n = 5 ...... (1)
m + 3n = 10 ...... (2)
Solve by elimination method
Add equation 1 and 2
– m + 2n = 5
+ (m + 3n = 10)
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
5n = 15
Divide both side by 5
n = 15/5
n = 3
Substitute the value of n into any of the equation to obtain the value of m. Here, we shall substitute n into equation 2.
m + 3n = 10
m + 3(3) = 10
m + 9 = 10
Collect like terms
m = 10 – 9
m = 1
Therefore, the value of m is 1

Use algebra and the fundamental trigonometric identities. Your answer should be a number or use a single trigonometric function.
(please help, no idea how to solve this problem)
Answer:
cos x
Step-by-step explanation:
sin x = (sin x) / (1) and cot x = (cos x) / (sin x)
Put those fractions next to each other and multiply them out (numerator times numerator, denominator times denominator).
Cancel out the (sin x) in the numerator and denominator
You should be left with just (cos x) / (1), whoch equals just (cos x).

7. Given the figure, find the desired measurements
Answer:
m∠F = 66°
m∠D = 57°
Step-by-step explanation:
It looks like you have ...
∠D = ∠E = (4x +1)°
∠F = (5x -4)°
The sum of the angles in the triangle is 180°, so we have ...
2(4x +1) +(5x -4) = 180
13x -2 = 180
x = 182/13 = 14
Then the angle measures are ...
∠D = ∠E = (4(14) +1)° = 57°
∠F = (5(14) -4)° = 66°
__
m∠F = 66°
m∠D = 57°

Clara has a lawn in front of her house as mapped on the coordinate plane. She wants to plant a bed of flowers between the points P and Q. Find the length of the bed of flowers. Question 2 options: A) 2 units B) 7 units C) 13 units D) 8 units
Answer:
Look Below In the Explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Point P has coordinates of (4,4) and point Q has coordinates of (4,-4).
Since both points have the same x-coordinates we can subtract point Q's y-coordinate from point P's y-coordinate.
I will set the equation up and try and figure this part by yourself. I hope you learned what to do from previous questions that are very similar to this that I answered.
4 - ( -4) = length of the bed of flowers
Hope that helps and maybe earns a brainliest!
Have a splendid day! :^)
The length of the bed of flowers will be 8 units.
What is Coordinates?
A pair of numbers which describe the exact position of a point on a cartesian plane by using the horizontal and vertical lines is called the coordinates.
Given that;
Clara wants to plant a bed of flowers between the points P and Q.
And, The value of P = (4, 4)
And, The value of Q = (4, - 4)
Now,
Since, Clara wants to plant a bed of flowers between the points P and Q.
And, The value of P = (4, 4)
And, The value of Q = (4, - 4)
Hence, The length of the bed of flowers will be;
PQ = √ (- 4 - 4)² + (4 - 4)²
PQ = √64
PQ = 8 units
Thus, The length of the bed of flowers will be 8 units.

The surface area of the rectangular prism is 292 cm²
COME ON!! What’s the answer 53 points!
Answer:
X : -6, 3, 15, -12
Y : 11, 5, -3, 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there!
To find the y values we need to plug the x values into th given equation,
y = -2/3x + 7
-6 ⇒ 11
15 ⇒ -3
Now we have a x value missing to that that we work backwards,
we plug in 15 for y in the given equation,
15 ⇒-12
Hope this helps :)
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]y = - \frac{2}{3} x + 7[/tex]
Substituting the values of x into the expression we have
For x = - 6[tex]y = - \frac{2 }{3} ( - 6) + 7[/tex]
y = 11 For y = 5Make x the subject
[tex]5 = - \frac{2}{3} x + 7[/tex]
Multiply through by 3
15 = - 2x + 21
-2x = 15 - 21
- 2x = - 6
Divide both sides by - 2
x = 3For x = 15[tex]y = - \frac{2}{3} (15) + 7[/tex]
y = - 10 + 7
y = - 3For y = 15[tex]15 = - \frac{2}{3} x + 7[/tex]
Multiply through by 3
45 = - 2x + 21
- 2x = 45 - 21
- 2x = 24
Divide both sides by - 2
x = - 12Hope this helps you

What is the scale factor from Figure A to Figure B?
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We are going to a small shape from a big shape, so the scale factor must be less than 1.
3 (which is a side on the blue figure) and 9 (a side on the green figure)
3 and 9 are easy numbers (for me...) so 3:9 is smaller than 1.
3:9 simplified is 1:3 = 1/3
so 1/3 is the scale factor.
Let's make sure it's right....
9 * 1/3 (green figure to blue figure) is = 3.
3.6 * 1/3 = 1.2

2) what fractional part of the total crackers originally in the box are left. 3) if there are 4 crackers left in the box after Alexander finished eating crackers on wensday, how many crackers were in the box before it was opened. (Please help!)
Answer:
Given the equivocal nature of this question, I will need to draw an assumption: I will assume that Ali ate from the cake and so did Jason — not Ali ate from the cake and Jason ate from Ali’s slice.
With that being said, the first approach is make both of these fractions have a common denominator, so that we can find how much each respective person ate from the total amount of slices. Intuitively, the common denominator is 12

Ali ate 4/12

Answer: D) 48 inches by 64 inches
=============================================
Explanation:
The scale factor is 1/4 = 0.25, meaning that the original preimage is larger and it is reduced to get the image. The reduced width is 12, so the original width is 12/0.25 = 48 inches. The reduced length is 16 making the original to be 16/0.25 = 64.
--------
note that
48*0.25 = 12
64*0.25 = 16
showing how a 48 by 64 rectangle is reduced to a 12 by 16 rectangle after applying the scale factor to each dimension

What are the solutions of the equation x4 – 5x2 – 14 = 0? Use factoring to solve.
Answer:
[tex]x=\pm 7\text{ or } x=\pm i\sqrt{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the equation:
[tex]x^4-5x^2-14=0[/tex]
Since this is in quadratic form, we can consider using u-substitution. Thus, we will let:
[tex]u=x^2[/tex]
Then by substitution:
[tex]u^2-5x-14=0[/tex]
Now we can solve normally. Factor:
[tex](u-7)(u+2)=0[/tex]
Zero Product Property:
[tex]u=7\text{ or } u=-2[/tex]
Back-substitute:
[tex]x^2=7\text{ and } x^2=-2[/tex]
Take the square root of both sides. Since we are taking an even-root, we will need to add plus-minus:
[tex]x=\pm 7\text{ and }x=\sqrt{-2}[/tex]
Therefore, our solutions are:
[tex]x=\pm7\text{ and } x=\pm i\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Savannah is currently one more than twice the age of her cat, Selena Gomez. In thirteen years, Savannah will be 1.5 times as old as Selena. What is Savannah's current age?
Answer:
23 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Savannah's age = x
Selena's age = y
Right now, x = 2y + 1
In 13 years, x = 1.5y
Here, we must use simultaneous equations to work it out.
x = 2y + 1
x + 13 = 1.5 x (y + 13) --> x + 13 = 1.5y + 1.5 x 13 --> x + 13 = 1.5y + 19.5
x + 13 = 1.5y + 19.5
- 13
x = 1.5y + 6.5
x = 1.5y + 6.5 = 2y + 1
1.5y + 6.5 = 2y + 1
- 1
1.5y + 5.5 = 2y
- 1.5y
5.5 = 0.5y
x 2
11 = y
We know that y = 11
Savannah is currently twice her cat's age plus 1, so...
11 x 2 + 1 = 22 + 1 = 23 years old
Hope this helps!
P.S. If the cat lives 13 more years after this, it will be a very old cat lol :)

colleen's family plans to paint the windows of their house. her father will paint twice as many windows as her mother, and Colleen and her 2 brothers will paint an equal number of the rest of the windows. Colleen decided to do her own share and her mother's share and paints 7 window, which is one less than her father's share. how many windows are in their house?
Answer: 24
Step-by-step explanation:
Colleen painted 7 windows, some of which were her mother's.
Her dad painted 7+1 (8) windows, and that is twice as much as what her mother was supposed to do. Her mother was supposed to do 4 windows. That means Colleen's share was 3 windows.
If all the kids had to do an equal amount of windows, than each kid had to do 3 windows.
8+7+3+3+3=24
The total windows in the house are 21.
What is an algebraic expression?It is an expression contains a relation between different parameters (variables). It contains variable and constant values, along with algebraic operations.
In our given problem, the algebraic relation between different members work output and total windows can be expressed as:
Windows painted by colleen and her mother = 7
Windows painted by father = (Windows painted by colleen and her mother + 1)
= (7 + 1) = 8
∴ Windows painted by father = 8
Now, as given,
2 Windows painted by mother = Windows painted by father
∴ Windows painted by mother = [tex]\frac{8}{2}[/tex] = 4
and Windows painted by colleen = 7 - 4 = 3
Colleen and her 2 brothers paint equal windows;
∴ They painted 3 windows each.
The total windows in the house is equal to total painted windows by mother, father, colleen and her two brothers:
⇒ 4 + 8 + 3 x 3 = 12 + 9 = 21
Hence the total windows in the house are 21.
