Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The goal of solving this equation is finding the value of the variable, "x". To do that, we need to get x alone on one side of the equation.

Our first step is to Combine Like Terms.

(7+5)(x-2)=12\\\\12(x-2)=12

Next, Divide 12 from both sides of the equation.

12(x-2)=12\\\\\frac{12(x-2)}{12}=\frac{12}{12}\\\\x-2=1

Finally, Add 2 to both sides of the equation.

x-2=1\\\\x-2+(2)=1+(2)\\\\x=3

So, x is equal to 3.

Answer: x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

7+5(x-2)=12

Open bracket

7+5x-10=12

Collect like terms

5x-3=12

5x=12+3

5x=15

X=15/5

X=3

How do I find the prime factorization of 40? And what is prime factorization?
Ulleksa [173]
Prime factorization is a way of showing which prime numbers (numbers that can only be divided by one and itself) can go into a number. For instance, the prime factorization of 4 would be 2 x 2. Two can only be divided by one and itself, so it is a prime number, and 2 x 2 = 4. For larger numbers, divide by a prime number until the number that is being divided is a prime number. Each divisor will be used as part of the prime factorization. The final dividend will also be used. Add the dividend, order each divisor from least to greatest, and then you're done. Therefore, the prime factorization of 40 would be 2 x 2 x 2 x 5.

Suppose that the functions h and f are defined as follows. h(x) =3/x, x notequalto 0 f(x) = x^2 - 1 Find the compositions h comp
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

hf(x) = 3/(x² - 1)

fh(x) = (9 - x²)/x²

Step-by-step explanation:

h(x) = 3/x

f(x) = x² - 1

h(f(x)) = 3/f(x)

hf(x) = 3/(x² - 1)

f(h(x)) = (h(x))² - 1

= (3/x)² - 1

= 9/x² - 1

fh(x) = (9 - x²)/x²
