Aiden borrows a book from a public library. He read a few pages on day one. On day two he reads twice the number of pages than he read on day one. On the third day, he reads six pages less than what he read on the first day. If he reads the entire book that contains 458 pages. Write how many pages he read on day three

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

On day one = few pages (x)

On day two = twice of pages read on day one (2x)

On day three= 6 less than the page read the first day (x-6)

Total pages read = x+2x+(x-6)=458

4x-6=458

4x=458+6=464

x= 464÷4

x=116

Pages read on day three was 110

Write and equation in standard form for a line that is (a) parallel (b) perpendicular to the line with an equation of y= 3x - 5 that passes through the point (5,8)

Answers

Answer:

(a) 3x -y = 7

(b) x +3y = 29

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) The standard form of the given line is ...

3x -y = 5

The parallel line will have a constant on the right that makes it go through (5, 8), so it will be ...

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

3x -y = 7

(b) The perpendicular line will have coefficients for x and y swapped and one of them negated. Again, the constant is chosen to make it go through (5, 8).

x + 3y = (5) +3(8)

x + 3y = 29

Which equation does not represent a linear function of x?

Answers

The easiest way I have for knowing the difference between linear and nonlinear is the exponent value on the variable x. It is important to understand the root word in linear. It is LINE. A straight line, no curves .y = 2x - 3 This is linear because the exponent on x is one. Thus your slope is standard rise over run, like a stair step and simply goes up or down. I hope this helps :D

3 /8 + 2/ 3 = 9/ 24 + 16/ 24 = 25/ 24 =

Answers

Convert the denominator of the first two fractions to 24 since 3 and 8 can fit into 24.

3/8=9/24

2/3=16/24

Now add them together.

9/24+16/24=25/24

Next add the second two fractions 9/24 and 16/24.

9/24+16/24=25/24

Since all fractions equal 25/24, the equation was true!

Hope this helps!
