Answer:

  x = -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting from the simplified form, we can subtract 22x to get ...

  6x -56 = -65

  6x = -9 . . . . . . . . add 56

  x = -9/6 = -3/2 . . . . divide by 6 and simplify

The solution of the equation is x = -3/2.

_____

<em>Check</em>

Substituting -3/2 for x in the original equation, we get ...

  4[-3/2 +2(3(-3/2) -7)] = 22(-3/2) -65

  4[-3/2 +2(-23/2)] = -33 -65

  4[-3/2 -23] = -98

  4[-49/2] = -98 . . . . . . . true

<h3>Answer:   14s^4 - 7s^2 + 15</h3>

====================================================

Work Shown:

(12s^4-6s^2+4s)+(6s^4-4s+27)-(4s^4+s^2+12)

12s^4-6s^2+4s+6s^4-4s+27-4s^4-s^2-12

(12s^4+6s^4-4s^4)+(-6s^2-s^2)+(4s-4s)+(27-12)

14s^4-7s^2+0s+15

14s^4-7s^2+15

Note: don't forget to distribute the negative to every term in the last parenthesis

Why do you multiply by a power of 10 when writing a repeating decimal as a rational number
oee [108]

The idea is to shift the number enough so that you can cancel the repeating digits by subtraction.

_____

Example

0.181818_18 multiplied by 100 gives

18.181818_18

Subtracting the original number gives

18.000000_00 . . . . . . all the repeating digits have been eliminated

When you multiply by 100 and subtract 1 times the original, you have multiplied by 99. Thus the value of the original number is 18/99 or 2/11.
