Answer:
<h2>x = 12</h2><h2 />
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 5 = 3x - 7
5 + 7 = 3x - 2x
12 = x
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1) The center lies on the vertical line x = -5 and the the circle is tangent to (touches in one place only) the y-axis. Thus, the radius is 5.
2) Starting with (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2 and comparing this to the given
(x - 4)^2 + (y + 3)^2 = 6^2
we see that h = 4, k = -3 and r = 6. The center is at (4, -3) and the radius is 6.
3) Notice that A and B have the same x-coordinate, x = 15. The center of the circle is thus (15, -2), where that -2 is the halfway point between the two given points in the vertical direction. Arbitrarily choose A(15, 4) as one point on the circle. Then the equation of this circle is
(x - 4)^2 + (y + 3)^2 = r^2 = 6^2, where the 6 is one half of the vertical distance between A(15, 4) and B(15, -8) (which is 12).
The associative property of addition is being demonstrated here. The parenthesis are moved around to "associate" or "group" the values into two different pairs.
Note: the associative property of multiplication is very similar and it is
a*(b*c) = (a*b)*c<span />
Answer:
n = 0, n =2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
(n + 1) + 3(n - 1) = 2(n - 1)(n + 1) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides
n + 1 + 3n - 3 = 2(n² - 1), that is
4n - 2 = 2n² - 2 ( subtract 4n - 2 from both sides )
0 = 2n² - 4n ← factor out 2n from each term )
0 = 2n(n - 2)
Equate each factor to zero and solve for n
2n = 0 ⇒ n = 0
n - 2 = 0 ⇒ n = 2
