So to figure out the next number in the sequence you multply the previous number by 5
the first 7 terms are
3, 15, 75, 375, 1875, 9375, and 46875
then ad those all up and you get 58,593
It is a blank picture I can’t do anything
X= a number
(2x+4)/3 + (x+2)= 20
Multiply everything by 3 to eliminate the fraction
(3/1)((2x+4)/3) + (3)(x+2)= (3)(20)
2x+4+3x+6= 60
5x+10=60
Subtract 10 from both sides
5x=50
divide both sides by 5
x=10
Check:
Substitute answer in original equation
(2x+4)/3 + (x+2)= 20
(2(10)+4)/3+(10+2)= 20
(20+4)/3+12= 20
24/3+12= 20
8+12= 20
20=20
Hope this helps! :)
