Answer:
x = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + 5 = x - 3
Subtract x from each side
3x+5-x = x-3-x
2x+5 = -3
Subtract 5 from each side
2x+5-5 = -3-5
2x = -8
Divide each side by 2
2x/2 = -8/2
x = -4
I believe you may have the order incorrect. If we were looking at g(f(x)) the answer would be 47. We would get this by sticking the 3 in for x in f(x) and solving, which would give us 48. We would then stick that answer in for x in the g(x), giving us 47.
In its current order the answer would be 28.
Answer:
65
Step-by-step explanation:
2 - 3 ( 5 + 2 ) ( 5 - 8 )
= 2 - 3 ( 7 ) ( -3 )
= 2 + 63
= 65
Here are a few rules you need to know for this equation:
- Multiplying exponents of the same base:
- Dividing exponents of the same base:
- Turning a negative exponent to a positive one:
So this is our algebraic expression: 
Firstly, multiply 3^-4 and 3^2: 
Next, divide:
Next, turn the negative exponent into a positive one: 
<u>Your final answer is 3/2, or 1.5.</u>
Ex: 2^2^2
Basically, the base is multiplied by the first power however large the number. Then the new base is multiplied by the second power to get an even larger number.
Say you have a question that asks for the power of the power of 2. Or 2^2^2.
You would do the equation 2^2 first, and end up with 4. But since you have another power, you would have the answer as 4^2. Which would then equal 16. But another equation that is similar is: 2^2^2 = 2^4
The two equations would still get the same answer, but would look entirely different.
