Answer:
4 is a factor
Step-by-step explanation:
4x+8
4x = 4*x
8 = 4*2
4(x+2)
4 is a factor
The next larger hundred is 5,100 .
The next smaller hundred is 4,900 .
5,000 is exactly midway between 4,900 and 5,100.
Neither of them is closer to 5,000 than the other one is.
So 5,000 is already rounded to the nearest hundred.
Larry is a smart man, and he’s correct. (x+3)(4x-5)
Aritmetic increases by the same number
geometric has 1 number that each term is multiplied by to get the next term
4 to 9 is 5
9 to 13 is 4
not same difference
9/4=13/9?
81/36=52/36?
no
neither aritmetic nor geometric
Change the messy words into numerals
3 times a number minus 2 equals 13
3 × n - 2 = 13
3n - 2 = 13
take 2 to the other side
3n - 2 + (2) = 13 + (2)
3n = 15
Divide by 3 on either sides to isolate n

=

3 and 3 cancels out
n = 5
check:
3 times 5 minus 2 equals 13
3 × 5 - 2 = 13
15 - 2 = 13
13 = 13
The number is 5
