So, you need to do the same operation to each side.
Start out by subtracting 3 from each side
1/4 (20x+8) = -3
Then, multiply both sides by 4
40x+8 = -12
Then, subtract 8 from each side
40x = -20
divide both sides by 40 and you get
x=-1/2

Hope this helped!

The first thing you should do is distribute 1/4 into (20x+8). You should do this first because of the order of operations:

Parenthesis
Exponent
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction

5x+2+3=0

Add 2 and 3 together

5x+5=0

Subtract 5 from each side.

5x=-5

Finally, divide each side by 5

x=-1

To check our answer, substitute -1 in as x

1/4(20(-1)+8)+3=0
1/4(-20+8)+3=0
1/4(-12)+3=0
-3+3=0
0=0

x=-1

Hope this helped! Tell me if you have any other questions! :)

What is the combined weight of all the kittens
Aleksandr [31]
The answer is 5. If you do 3/8 x 4 you get 1.5, if you multiply 1/2 x 3 you get 1.5, if you do 1/4 x 3 you get .75 and if you do 5/8 x 2 you get 1.25. So, 1.5 + 1.5 + .75 + 1.25 = 5

Given ​f(x)=x^2+12x+26​.
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

f(x) =  (x+6)² - 10

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the equation in vertex form we, we need to use completing square method.

f(x) = x²+ 12x + 26 = (x² + 2*x*6 + 6²) - 6² + 26 = (x+6)² -36 + 26 =

= (x+6)² - 10

f(x) =  (x+6)² - 10
