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

sergejj [24]
Y = a (b^x)

1) x = 0, y = 3500

=> 3500 = a (b^0)

=> 3500 = a (1)

=> a = 3500

2) growth percent = 3.5% => growth rate = 1.035 = b

=> y = 3500 (1.035)^ x

3) year 2020 => x = 2020 - 2000 = 20

4) y = 3500 (1.035)^ 20 = 6964

Answer: 6964.

F(x) = x°-9x
laila [671]
F(x)=x^3-9x
and
g(x)=x^2-2x-3

so you just need to divide f(x) by g(x)

Therefore:

f(x)/g(x) = (x^3-9x) / (x^2-2x-3)

and of course you need to factor these two function to see if some factor would cancel another

x^3-9x = x(x^2-9)=x(x-3)(x+3)
and
x^2-2x-3 = (x-3)(x+1)

What is a possible solution for x+6≥10
ira [324]

Answer:

4,5,6

Step-by-step explanation:

*The sign of ≥ means that it must be greater or equal to 10 in this case

1). 3 isn't a possible solution due to 9 being less than 10

3+6_10

9_10

9<10

2). 4 is a possible solution due to the sum of 4 and 6 being equal to 10

4+6_10

10_10

10=10

3). 5 is a possible solution due to the sum of 5 and 6 being larger than 10

5+6_10

11_10

11>10

4).6 is a possible solution due to the sum of 6 and 6 being larger than 10

6+6_10

12_10

12>10

Hope this helped! (:
