Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Also, follow PEMDAS.

First, distribute 4 to all terms within the parenthesis:

4(3x + 2) = (4)(3x) + (4)(2) = 12x + 8

12x + 8 = 68

Isolate the variable x. Subtract 8 from both sides.

12x + 8 (-8) = 68 (-8)

12x = 68 - 8

12x = 60

Isolate the variable, x. Divide 12 from both sides.

(12x)/12 = (60)/12

x = 60/12

x = 5

5 is your answer for x.

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

4(3x+2)=68

Divide each side by 4

4/4(3x+2)=68/4

3x+2 =17

Subtract 2 from each side

3x+2-2 = 17-2

3x = 15

Divide each side by 3

3x/3 = 15/3

x =5

Can someone fr help me with this like right now i’ll appreciate it sm

Step-by-step explanation:

Since

\frac{108}{72}  =  \frac{3}{2}

\frac{72}{48}  =  \frac{3}{2}

\frac{48}{32}  =  \frac{3}{2}

The function has a constant factor so we have a exponential function.

The equation of a exponential function is

y = a(b) {}^{x}

Where a is the initial value and b is the growth factor

The growth factor is 3/2,

The initial value in 32

y =  32 ( \frac{3}{2} ) {}^{x}

Plug in 4 for x.

You will get 162

Plug in 5 for x you will get

243.

2013- 162

2014- 243

What polynomial function has the zeros -3,1,5
natka813 [3]

Answer:

x³ - 3 x² - 13 x + 15 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically you can create three factors like this:

(x+3)(x-1)(x-5)=0

That will each represent one zero.

Work it out and you get x³ - 3 x² - 13 x + 15 = 0
