<h3><u>answer</u><u>:</u></h3>

<em>x</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>-4</em>

<h3><em>steps</em><em>:</em></h3>

Let the number = x (set up an equation)

2x = -3x - 20

add 3x to both sides

5x = -20

divide by 5 on both sides

<u>x</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>-4</u>

explain how you would find how many 1 1/2 cup servings there are in a pot that contains 22 1/2 cups of soup.
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply the 1 1/2 by 2 to get 3.

find the closest number that is divisible by 3

3*7 is 21.

We now have to multiply 7 by 2 since we did that to our mixed number to get a whole number.

There is still a 1 1/2 left over. Simply add 1 to 14.

I need to know how to do this, plz explain-Which function grows at the fastest rate for increasing values of x?
saul85 [17]
If the first function is
.. h(x) = 2^x
it will be the one that grows the fastest. The exponential function with the largest base value will grow faster than any polynomial.

PSYCHO15rus [73]
I believe the answer is B.

Because the patient loses 2% every month. There’s 12 months in a year. 2 x 12 is 24. In a year he loses 24 percent, 100%- 24% = 76%. Which the answer the rest to be 76%
