<u>Answer:</u>
one solution = 3
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
5x+17=4(3x−1)
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
5x+17=4(3x−1)
5x+17=(4)(3x)+(4)(−1)(Distribute)
5x+17=12x+−4
5x+17=12x−4
Step 2: Subtract 12x from both sides.
5x+17−12x=12x−4−12x
−7x+17=−4
Step 3: Subtract 17 from both sides.
−7x+17−17=−4−17
−7x=−21
Step 4: Divide both sides by -7
-7x/-7 = -21/-7 = 3
Answer: 25%
Step-by-step explanation: The question tells us that the population decreases by 1/4 every single year. That means, since 1/4 equals .25, the population decreases by 25% every year :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
4x+2y = -24 -------------(i)
<u> -4x+y = 12 -</u>------------(ii)
add (i) &(ii) 3y = -12
y = -12/3
y = -4
Put y = (-4) in (i)
4x + 2*(-4) = -24
4x - 8 = -24
4x = -24 + 8
4x = -16
x = -16/4
x = -4
x^2 - 7x + 15
_________________
(x+4)/ x^3 - 3x^2 - 13x + 78
- x^3 + 4x^2
----------------
- 7x^2 - 13x
- - 7x^2 - 28x
------------------
15x + 78
- 15x + 60
-------------
18
remainder = 18
