Since, this is an absolute value expression. We know that there is going to be 2 solutions.

We know that either 5x + 2 = 8 and 5x + 2 = -8 are the solutions.

Steps to solve:

5x + 2 = 8

~Subtract 2 to both sides

5x + 2 - 2 = 8 - 2

~Simplify

5x = 6

~Divide 5 to both sides

5x/5 = 6/5

~Simplify

x = 6/5

Steps to solve:

5x + 2 = -8

~Subtract 2 to both sides

5x + 2 - 2 = -8 - 2

~Simplify

5x = -10

~Divide 5 to both sides

5x/5 = -10/5

~Simplify

x = -2

Best of Luck!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

|5x+2|=8

Note that

|x|=x for ×>0

|x|=-x for ×<0.

So, for the first case

|5x+2|=8

5x+2=8

5x=8-2

5x=6

x=6/5

Also, the second aspect.

|5x+2|=8

-(5x+2)=8

Divide both side by -

5x+2=-8

5x=-8-2

5x=-10

x=-10/2

x=-5

Find the first three terms of the sequence with nth term 3n-2​
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

To find out the first three terms of 3n - 2 substitute 1 ,2 and 3 into the equation.

so the three terms a

 3(1)-2=1

3(2)-2=6-2=4

3(3)-2=9-2=7

As you can see the sequence goes up in 1,4 and 7.To find out the 10th term you also substitute 10 into the equation so 3(9)-2=18-2=16

so 16 is the tenth term

Hope this helped!

I think the answer is C.

First start by factoring, you should get (2n-3)(n-2)=0

Then start to solve for n.

2n-3=0

n-2=0

n=2, n= 3/2

I hope that helps.
