Hello!
So the following would be your equation.
3(x+5)-10= 29
Your first step would be to use the Distributive Property based upon PEMDAS (Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction). Since we have Parenthesis, we distribute first.
3(x+5)-10=29
^ ^
——————
So, your new equation would be—
3x+15-10=29
Now, you need to combine like terms—
15-10=29
3x+5=29
——————
Therefore your new equation is—
3x+5=29.
Now you need to move the constants (5,29) to one side of the equal sign. To do this, you would use the Subtraction Property of Equality and rid the 5–
3x+5=29
-5 -5
——————
Your equation is now—
3x=24.
Finally, you need to remove the 3 from x. This means you must use the Division Property of Equality, and rid the 3.
3x=24
— —
3 3
Your solved equation is—
X=8

Hope this helped!

Consider the parabola r​(t)equalsleft angle at squared plus 1 comma t right angle​, for minusinfinityless thantless thaninfinity
kodGreya [7K]

Given:-   r(t)=< at^2+1,t>  ; -\infty < t< \infty , where a is any positive real number.

Consider the helix parabolic equation :  

                                              r(t)=< at^2+1,t>

now, take the derivatives we get;

                                            r{}'(t)=

As, we know that two vectors are orthogonal if their dot product is zero.

Here,  r(t) and r{}'(t)  are orthogonal i.e,   r\cdot r{}'=0

Therefore, we have ,

                                  < at^2+1,t>\cdot < 2at,1>=0

< at^2+1,t>\cdot < 2at,1>=

                                              =2a^2t^3+2at+t

2a^2t^3+2at+t=0

take t common in above equation we get,

t\cdot \left (2a^2t^2+2a+1\right )=0

⇒t=0 or 2a^2t^2+2a+1=0

To find the solution for t;

take 2a^2t^2+2a+1=0

The numberD = b^2 -4ac determined from the coefficients of the equation ax^2 + bx + c = 0.

The determinant D=0-4(2a^2)(2a+1)=-8a^2\cdot(2a+1)

Since, for any positive value of a determinant is negative.

Therefore, there is no solution.

The only solution, we have t=0.

Hence, we have only one points on the parabola  r(t)=< at^2+1,t> i.e <1,0>
