Answer:
You showed the right work and got the right answer!
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Since B is in the middle of A and C, AB + BC = AC
So,
2x - 11 + 8 = x + 3
x - 3 = 3
x = 6
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
0*(1/3125)+1*(4/625)+2*(32/625)+3*(128/625)+4*(256/625)+5*(1024/3125)
Reduce the expression by cancelling the common factors: 1/n
Answer: No solution
Step-by-step explanation:
9-(-8)=20 given
9+8=20 the two negatives cancel out, making the eight positive
17=20 this statement is not correct, so the answer is no solution
no solution
I'm not sure if there was supposed to be a variable in there somewhere, but I did my best to explain. Hope this helps!
Answer:
<em>See below</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
In this example we are to consider the equation 2x - 5 = 4x + 12, and are asked to solve for x. Well let us take the first approach, a mathematical one;

Now consider the explanation, " talking over a phone to a friend. "
First you would subtract 2x on either side of the equation, canceling the 2x on one side, and subtracting 2x from 4x on the other, resulting in the simplified equation - 5 = 2x + 12. Subtracting 12 from either side we cancel the 12 on one side, and subtract - 12 and - 5 on the other. We now get - 17 = 2x. Dividing 2 on either side, x = - 8.5!
