3 if 5 times a number plus two is 17, then we can say 5x+2=17 if we subtract two on each side we have 5x=15, divide each side by 5 and you get x=3 so your answer is 3

5n = 15
Divide each side by 5. (to cancel out the ×5)
n = 3

It is given that,

Miguel made 80 on his Math test. He made 95 in last week's Math test.

We need to find the percent change on his scores. It can be calculated as follows :

\%=\dfrac{\text{original score-initial score}}{\text{original socre}}}\times 100\\\\\%=\dfrac{95-80}{95}\times 100\\\\\%=15.78\%

So, there is a percent change of 15.78%.

Solve 6^x+2 = 10 for x using the change of base formula
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

x\approx-0.7149

Step-by-step explanation:

\displaystyle 6^{x+2}=10\\\\\log_6(6^{x+2})=\log_6(10)\\\\x+2=\frac{\log(10)}{\log(6)}\\\\x+2\approx1.2851\\\\x\approx-0.7149

Recall that the change of base formula is \displaystyle \log_a(b)=\frac{\log(b)}{\log(a)}

Please help me with i ii iii<br> Step by step
UkoKoshka [18]

(i) I used distributive property to get the x’s and y’s out of parentheses. I then combined like-terms to simplify until I could do no more. That is your final answer for (i) is -3x - 12y

(ii) This one is similar to the first one, just with no parentheses. I combined like terms again until not like terms were left. Your final answer for (ii) is -3k -2 -2n

(iii) I started by dividing 15 by 3 and got 5, and because the 15 had an x to it, you get 5x. I then moved onto the next term, 9. 9 divided by 3, to get 3. Your final answer for (iii) is 5x + 3

Solve -3(x+5) = -9 solve
Bumek [7]
-3(x + 5) = -9
-3x + -15 = -9
-3x - 15 = -9
-3x - 15 + 15 = -9 + 15 (we added 15 to both sides of the equation because now, the 15 on the left side cancels out).
-3x = 6
-3x/-3 = 6/-3
X = -2
So, in conclusion, X is equal to -2.
