The value of the given expression (5/3)(3x - 6) - (6 - 4x) at x = 5 is 29.

According to the given question.

We have an expression (5/3)(3x - 6) - (6 - 4x).

So, the value of the given expression (5/3)(3x - 6) - (6 - 4x) at x = 5 is given by

(5/3)(3x - 6) - (6 - 4x)

= 5x - 10 - (6 - 4x)               (by distributive rule)

= 5x - 10 - 6 + 4x

= 9x - 16

= 9(5) - 16                 (at x = 5)

= 29

Hence, the value of the given expression (5/3)(3x - 6) - (6 - 4x) at x = 5 is 29.

The inequality that models the situation is:

$50 + $25*x < $175

Where x is the number of lessons that the student can take.

We know that Mr. Bass charges $25 per class plus a fixed fee of $50.

Then if a student takes x classes, the cost is given by the expression:

$50 + $25*x

And we know that this needs to be smaller than $175, then we can write the inequality:

$50 + $25*x < $175

Now we can solve this for x:

$25*x < $175 - $50

$25*x < $125

x < $125/$25

x < 5

So the student needs to take less than 5 classes.

The function f(x)=1+|2x-5| in piecewise form without using absolute values will be f₁ = 4, f₂ = 2 and  a = 5/2.

Given that,

f(x) = 1 + |2x - 5|

And,

f(x) = {f₁       x < a

         {f₂      x ≥ a

Now,

We have,

f(x) = 1 + |2x - 5|

And,

By definition of absolute value,

|x| = {x        x ≥ 0

       {-x       x < 0

And,

Given the absolute value,

|2x - 5|

Solve for x,

i.e.

2x - 5 = 0

We get,

x = 5/2 = 2.5

i.e.

a = 5/2

i.e.

For all values greater than x = 5/2, 2x - 5 is positive,

And,

For all values less than x = 5/2, 2x - 5 is negative.

So,

|x| = {x        x ≥ 5/2

       {-x       x < 5/2

i.e.

|2x - 5| = {2x - 5        x ≥ 5/2

              {-(2x - 5)       x < 5/2

Now,

f(1) = 1 + |2(1) - 5|

We get,

f₁ = 4

And,

f(2) = 1 + |2(2) - 5|

We get,

f₂ = 2

Hence we can say that the function f(x)=1+|2x-5| in piecewise form without using absolute values will be f₁ = 4, f₂ = 2 and  a = 5/2.

The equation of line in slope intercept form which passes through (-1, -5) and (4, -2) will be y = [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex] x .

What is the slope intercept form of a line ?

The equation of a straight line in the form y = mx + c is known as the slope intercept form, where m denotes the slope and c denotes the y-intercept of a line.

It is given that line is passing through (x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) that is ,  (-1, -5) and (4, -2).

Let's find out the value of slope first.

We know that , slope (m) = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)

⇒ m = [(-2-(-5)] / [4 - (-1)]

⇒ m = 3 / 5

Now we will use the slope to find the y-intercept.

∵ y = mx + c

where , c is the y-intercept.

(-2 -(-5)) = (3/5) × (4-(-1)) + c

3 = [ (3/5) × 5 ] + c

3 = 3 + c

c = 0

Now ; we will write the equation in slope intercept form that is ;

y = mx + c

or

y = [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex] × x + 0

or

y = [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex] x

Therefore , the equation of line in slope intercept form which passes through (-1, -5) and (4, -2) will be y = [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex] x .

The total percentage they travelled when Jai fell asleep is 35%.

In mathematics, a percentage is a ratio or value that is expressed as a fraction of 100. The Latin term "per centum," which means "by a hundred," is the source of the English word "percent." The sign "%" stands for percentage. We apply the percentage method to determine the portion of a whole expressed in terms of 100. Use the percentage formula to convert a number to a fraction of 100.

The total length of trip was 740 miles.

Jai travelled before they fell asleep  = 259 miles

Therefore the percentage of total trip travelled before Jai fell asleep =

= [tex]\frac{259}{740}\times100[/tex]

The length of the line segment XY which was bisected at point M is;

1) 32

2) 6

1) From the given line segments, it is clear that XM is congruent to YM since M bisects XY. Thus;

XM = YM and XM + YM = XY

We are given that;

XM = 3x + 1

YM = 8x - 24

Thus;

3x + 1 = 8x - 24

8x - 3x = 1 + 24

5x = 25

x = 25/5

x = 5

Thus;

XM = 3(5) + 1 = 16

YM = 8(5) - 24 = 16

XY = 16 + 16 = 32

2) From the given line segments, it is clear that XM is congruent to YM since M bisects XY. Thus;

XM = YM and XM + YM = XY

We are given that;

XM = 5x + 8

YM = 9x + 12

Thus;

2. By how much will tuition increase each year?

We can calculate the tuition per year and the increase in the tuition each year as below:

Number of semesters in a year = 2

Tuition in each semester = $18,000

Increase in the tuition per semester = $500

Using the above information, we can proceed as follows:

Tuition per year = Tuition in each semester * Number of semesters in a year = $18,000 = $36,000

Increase in the tuition each year =  Increase in the tuition per semester * Number of semesters in a year = $500 * 2 = $1,000

Common ratio= 1/2, Next two term= 1/16, 1/32

This is a geometric sequence since there is a common ratio between each term.

i.e.,

the common ratio (r) = [tex]\frac{1/2}{1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1/4}{1/2}[/tex]

                                  = 1/2

We can write the formula for general term of the series as

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = a[tex](\frac{1}{2})^{n-1}[/tex]

If the further sequence does continue in the same way then the whole infinite sequence indicated is a geometric series.

So we have

[tex]a_{2}[/tex] =(1) [tex](\frac{1}{2} )^{2-1}[/tex]= 1/2

[tex]a_{3}[/tex] = 1× [tex](\frac{1}{2} )^{3-1}[/tex]= 1/4

[tex]a_{4}[/tex] = 1× [tex](\frac{1}{2} )^{4-1}[/tex]= 1/8

[tex]a_{5}[/tex] = 1× [tex](\frac{1}{2} )^{5-1}[/tex]= 1/16

[tex]a_{6}[/tex] = 1× [tex](\frac{1}{2} )^{6-1}[/tex]= 1/32

Arithmetic sequences are sequences containing these patterns. The distance between succeeding terms in an arithmetic series is always the same. The difference between consecutive words is always two, hence the sequence 3, 5, 7, 9... is arithmetic.

The inequality given by (x/3) + 5 ≥ 1/6 has the solution x ≥ -29/2 or [-29/2 , +∞).

Inequality refers to the relationship between two non-equal expressions. It can be denoted by > for greater than, < for less than, >/= for greater than and equal to, and </= for less than and equal to.

To solve an inequality is to find the values of x such that when we substitute that number for x we have a true statement.

Given the inequality (x/3) + 5 ≥ 1/6, subtract 5 from both sides.

(x/3) + 5 - 5 ≥ 1/6 - 5

x/3 ≥ -29/6

Multiply both sides by 3.

3(x/3) ≥ 3(-29/6)

x ≥ -29/2

To check, let x = -29/2

x = -29/2 ≥ -29/2

Substitute this value to the inequality.
