I'm assuming that you meant 4x+1=3x?
Subtracting 4x, we get 1=-x. Multiplying by -1, we get x=-1 as the solution.
Answer:
a. - 45 feet
b. - 18 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
If we consider the water level as the reference level then the elevation of the fish is - 27 feet, i.e. the fish is 27 feet below the water level.
a. Now, the fish decreases its elevation by 32 feet and then increases its elevation by 14 feet.
Therefore, the new elevation of the fish is (- 27 - 32 + 14) = - 45 feet.
b. Now, if my elevation is of the new elevation of the fish then my elevation will be = feet. (Answer)
Answer:
The answer is they are all correct
Step-by-step explanation:
5 +3(1) = 8 = 3(1)+5
5 +3(2) = 11 = 3(2)+5
5 +3(3) = 14 = 3(3)+5
5 +3(4) = 17 = 3(4)+5
5 +3(5) = 20 = 3(5)+5
The first thing to do is look at the left hand side and factorise it. To do this we use the reverse of FOIL. Then when the expression is factorised, we can solve for x.
1. First find the skeleton with just x's:
(2x )(x )
2. Next, find 2 numbers that mutiply to make 6, and these go at the end of the brackets. This could be 6 and 1 or 2 and 3, or -6 and -1 or -2 and -3.
Since there is a 7x term, the 2 numbers must add to 7 when one of them is multiplied by 2 - due to the 2x term (2x ).
so (2x 3)(x 2) or (2x 2)( 3)
3. Trial and error shows us that (2x + 3)(x + 2) is the right answer.
4. Now set each bracket respectively to 0 and solve for x. The solutions are x = -3/2 and x = -2.
And there we have the answers!
