Answer:
X= 7
Step-by-step explanation:
x+x+2+3x-6=31 Combine x's
2x+2+3x-6=31 Continue to combine x's
5x+2-6=31 Combine whole numbers
5x-4=31 Add 4 to both sides
5x=35 Divide by 5
x=7
Answer:
Rotterdam

it's in the negatives
Answer:
- using the rule given: 2.5
- using an exponential rule: 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Evaluating the linear rule given, for n = 1, we have ...
a1 = 7(1/2)(1) -1 = 7/2 -1 = 5/2 = 2.5
_____
We suspect you may intend the exponential function ...
an = 7(1/2)^(n-1)
Then, for n = 1, we have ...
a1 = 7(1/2)^(1 -1) = 7(1) = 7 . . . . the first term is 7
_____
When writing an exponential expression in plain text, it requires the exponential operator, a caret (^). If the exponent contains any arithmetic, as this one does, it must be enclosed in parentheses.
To find how long it will take to fill the tank, you can use the idea that every 30 seconds will get you one gallon closer to being full.
This means to fill 50 gallons, you will need 50 groups of 30 seconds.
50 x 30 = 1500 seconds
1500/60 = 25 minutes.
It will take 25 minutes.
You could also think of it as filling 2 gallons every minute. It would take 25 of these.
Answer:
We cannot solve without a value for x. The simplified form is 
Step-by-step explanation:
If the equation is 
then we cannot solve it until we know the value of x. We can simplify it using order of operations such as PEMDAS.
