Given the equation −4square root of x minus 3 = -12, solve for x and identify if it is an extraneous solution.

x = 0, solution is extraneous
x = 0, solution is not extraneous
x = 12, solution is extraneous
x = 12, solution is not extraneous

Suppose that a households monthly water bill (in dollars) is a linear function of the amount of water the household uses (in hundreds of cubic feet, hcf). when graphed, the function gives a line with slope of 1.65. if the monthly cost for 13 hcf is $46.10 what is the monthly cost for 19 hcf?

Adecibel is a logarithmic unit that can be used to measure the intensity of a sound. the function y = 10logx gives the intensity of a sound in decibels, where x is the ratio of the intensity of the sound to a reference intensity. the reference intensity is generally set at the threshold of hearing. use the graphing utility to graph the decibel function.a whisper has a sound intensity of 30 decibels. use your graph to you complete the following statement. the sound intensity of a whisper is times the reference intensity.
