3 times a number (3x) plus 12 (+ 12) minus times the same number (- 5x) is 22.

HERE'S THE EQUATION:

 3x+12-5x=22

COMBINE LIKE TERMS (3x + -5x):

-2x +12 = 22

SUBTRACT 12 TO ISOLATE -2x:

-2x +12 = 22
       -12    -12
= -2x = 10

DIVIDE BY 2 TO ISOLATE X:

\frac{-2x}{-2} =  \frac{10}{-2}

FINAL ANSWER:
x = -5

What is the difference quotient of the function g(x) = 4^x
lidiya [134]

Answer:

First choice

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference quotient in general is  \frac{g(x+h)-g(x)}{h}. To get an expression for  g(x+h), replace  x  with x + h.

For this question,

\frac{4^{x+h}-4^x}{h}=\frac{4^x\cdot4^h-4^x}{h}

Factor  4^x out of the numerator.

\frac{4^x(4^h-1)}{h}

Simplify the expression please help
Mila [183]
Simplify the following:

((-1^3)/(-3)^(-3))^2

1^3 = 1:
((-1)/(-3)^(-3))^2

(-3)^(-3) = 1/(-1)^3×1/3^3 = (-1)/3^3:
((-1)/((-1)/3^3))^2

3^3 = 3×3^2:
((-1)/(-1/(3×3^2)))^2

3^2 = 9:
((-1)/((-1)/(3×9)))^2

3×9 = 27:
((-1)/((-1)/27))^2

Multiply the numerator of (-1)/((-1)/27) by the reciprocal of the denominator. (-1)/((-1)/27) = (-27)/(-1):
((-27)/(-1))^2

(-27)/(-1) = (-1)/(-1)×27 = 27:
27^2

-2f =3-(-12)

-2f=3+12

=15

divide both sides by 2

f=15/2

B. f(0)=3-6(0)

f=3

C.f(4)=3-6(4)

4f=3-24

f=21/4
