Answer:
x = - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there !
if f(x) = 2x + 7 and f(x) = -1 =>
2x + 7 = - 1
2x = - 1 - 7
2x = - 8
x = - 8 ÷ 2
x = - 4
Good luck !
12
First figure out of it is a arithmetic or geometric sequence, in this case it is a geometric sequence because you have to multiply, not add to find the next number.
Divide one number, I'll pick 324 by the number before it, 108, you get three.
Now divide 36 by 3, you get 12.
To check, multiply 12 by 3, you get 36, multiply that by 3, you get 108, and so on and so forth.
Answer: multiply x by 2 in the first equation and subtract the second equation
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve a system of linear equations by elimination method , our first step is to make its (either x or y) coefficient same.
For that we multiply a number to both sides of the equation not to only one term.
So by checking all the given options it is pretty clear that the last option is not applicable for elimination method because in this 2 is multiplied to only one term, which proceeds to loose the balance of the equation.
Thus , an INCORRECT step that will NOT produce a system with the same solution is "multiply x by 2 in the first equation and subtract the second equation
".
“Square five times a number” with “a number” being x is the same as saying:
5x²
“three more than the number” is the same as saying:
3 + x
Therefore the sentence “When you square five times a number, you get three more than the number.” is the same as:
5x² = 3 + x
Hope this helps, have a great day! :)
