Answer:
<em>x = 7</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
17 = 3X + -4
Reorder the terms:
17 = -4 + 3X
Solving
17 = -4 + 3X
Solving for variable 'X'.
Move all terms containing X to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-3X' to each side of the equation.
17 + -3X = -4 + 3X + -3X
Combine like terms: 3X + -3X = 0
17 + -3X = -4 + 0
17 + -3X = -4
Add '-17' to each side of the equation.
17 + -17 + -3X = -4 + -17
Combine like terms: 17 + -17 = 0
0 + -3X = -4 + -17
-3X = -4 + -17
Combine like terms: -4 + -17 = -21
-3X = -21
Divide each side by '-3'.
X = 7
Simplifying
X = 7
Answer:
n= 1/2 (
) or (0.5)
AND
n= -3/2 (
) or (-1.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
4n^2+4n=3
step1: move 3 to the other side and make the equation equal to zero.
4n^2+4n-3=0
step2: factorise the equation.
(2n-1)(2n+3)=0
step3: make each bracket equal to zero.
2n-1=0
2n+3=0
step4: solve for n values.
<u>1.</u> 2n-1=0
(add 1 for both sides)
2n=1
(divide by 2 for both sides)
n= 1/2 (
) or (0.5)
<u>2.</u> 2n+3=0
( subtract 3 for both sides)
2n=-3
(divide by 2 for both sides)
n= -3/2 (
) or (-1.5)
