3x - 10 = x + 4 <== ur equation

three times a number.....3x...with the x representing the number
ten less....3x - 10
is the same as...means =
that number (x) increased by 4....x + 4
so we have 3x - 10 = x + 4...

3x - 10 = x + 4
3x - x = 4 + 10
2x = 14
x = 14/2
x = 7....and that number is 7

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

5x+8=3x-6

Subtract 3x from each side

5x-3x+8=3x-3x-6

2x+8 = -6

Subtract 8 from each side

2x+8-8 = -6-8

2x = -14

$\bf g(x)=\cfrac{1}{x^2}~\hspace{5em}\cfrac{g(x+h)-g(x)}{h}\implies \cfrac{\frac{1}{(x+h)^2}-\frac{1}{x^2}}{h} \\\\\\ \textit{using the LCD of }(x+h)^2(x^2)\qquad \cfrac{\frac{x^2-(x+h)^2}{(x+h)^2(x^2)}}{h}\implies \cfrac{x^2-(x+h)^2}{h(x+h)^2(x^2)} \\\\\\ \cfrac{x^2-(x^2+2xh+h^2)}{h(x+h)^2(x^2)}\implies \cfrac{\underline{x^2-x^2}-2xh-h^2}{h(x+h)^2(x^2)}\implies \cfrac{-2xh-h^2}{h(x+h)^2(x^2)}$
