Answer: x= -8

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4 x + 2 = -5x/8 - 5

x/4 + 2 = -5x / 8 - 5

we collect like term

x/4 + 5x / 8 = -5 - 2

2x + 5x / 8 = -7

7x / 8 = -7

cross multiply

7x = -56

Divide bothside by 7

7x / 7 = -56/7

x = -8

How is the function shown below related to y=x? Graph the function by translating the parent function y=x+5
AveGali [126]

Consider x=0.

The output of the function y=x is y=0.

The output of the function y=x+5 is y=0+5, or y=5.

The value 5 is not 5 less than 0, not 1/5 of 0, and not 5 times 0. Rather, it is 5 more than 0, corresponding to selection ...

... C. Each output of y=x+5 is 5 more than the corresponding output of y=x.

Solve for x. 3^x−1=9^x+2 <br> Enter your answer in the box.
slava [35]

Answer:

-5 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

3^(x-1) = 9^(x+2)

Replace 9 with 3^2

3^(x-1) = 3^2^(x+2)

We know that a power to a power means the powers are multiplied

a^b^c = a^(b*c)

3^(x-1) = 3^(2x+2)

When the bases are the same, the powers have to be the same

x-1 = 2x+4

Subtract x from each side

x-x-1 =2x-x+4

-1 =x+4

Subtract 4 from each side

-1-4 =x+4-4

-1-4 = x

-5 =x
