Answer:

x = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 14 to -2 because you want to remove -14 and leave x alone.

14 + -2 = 12

-x = 12

Remove the negative sign by dividing both sides by negative 1

x = -12

X = -12

process:

-x - 14 = -2
move -14 to the other side which gets you

-x = 12
divide both sides by -1

x = -12

D. Sasha's method is exponential because it increases by a fixed factor, and Mona's method is linear because it increases by a fixed number.

Hope this helps!~

From a practice assignment:<br>solve the following differential equation given initial conditions

hodyreva [135]

If $y' = e^y \sin(x)$ and $y(-\pi)=0$ , separate variables in the differential equation to get

$e^{-y} \, dy = \sin(x) \, dx$

Integrate both sides:

$\displaystyle \int e^{-y} \, dy = \int \sin(x) \, dx \implies -e^{-y} = -\cos(x) + C$

Use the initial condition to solve for $C$ :

$-e^{-0} = -\cos(-\pi) + C \implies -1 = 1 + C \implies C = -2$

Then the particular solution to the initial value problem is

$-e^{-y} = -\cos(x) - 2 \implies e^{-y} = \cos(x) + 2$
