Solve the equation 3(a-1)=34...
AnnyKZ [126]
To solve this equation, you need to use the distributive property. You first multiply 3 and a and you get 3a. Then you multiply 3 and -1 and you get -3. You add -3 to 34 which is 31. Then you divide 31 by 3 and you get 10.3. Unfortunately. I have no idea how to explain why backtracking helps you solve the equation but I hope this helps you a little bit.

If g(x) = 2x – 5, then evaluate g(2x2 – 3)<br><br> please explain.
Juliette [100K]
2(2x^2-3) -5
4x^2 - 6 - 5
4x^2 - 11

g(x) = 2x - 5
If you had to evaluate g(3)
You would substitute 3 in for the x and simplify. Instead of substituting a single number you are substituting the binomial
2x^2 -3 and then simplifying. I hope you understand.
