Answer:

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation:

-3x+12= -18

and asked to solve for x. Therefore, we must isolate x on one side of the equation.

12 is being added to -3x. The inverse of addition is subtraction. Subtract 12 from both sides of the equation.

-3x+12-12= -18 -12

-3x= -18-12

-3x=-30

x is being multiplied by -3. The inverse of multiplication is division. Divide both sides of the equation by -3.

-3x/3=-30/-3

x= -30/-3

x=10

Let's check our solution. Plug 10 in for x and solve.

-3x+12=-18

-3(10)+12=-18

Multiply -3 and 10.

-30+12=-18

Add 12 to -30.

-18=-18

This checks out, so we know our solution is correct.

The solution -3x+12=-18 is x=10.

Determine whether each of these functions is O(x^2 ).
otez555 [7]

Answer:

  • (a)  no
  • (b)  yes
  • (c)  no
  • (d)  no

Step-by-step explanation:

"Of the order x^2" means the dominant behavior matches that of x^2 as x gets large. For polynomial functions, the dominant behavior is that of the highest-degree term.

For other functions, the dominant behavior will typically be governed in some other way. Here, the rate of growth of the x·log(x) function is determined by log(x), which has decreasing slope as x increases.

Only answer selection B has a highest-degree term of x^2, so only that one exhibits O(x^2) behavior.
