For this case we must raise the equation according to the given statement.

Let the variable "x" be the unknown number.

So, three times the number is: $3x$

If to that term is added "6" we have:

$3x+6$

The sum of both terms is "12", then:

$3x+6 = 12$

Thus, the equation is: $3x+6 = 12$

Answer:

$3x+6 = 12$

What's the answer? pls help

Answer:

The slope is 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is the change of y over the change in x. Since y doesn't change at all, it's 0 over 3. 0/3 is just 0, so the slope is 0.

What is the eighth term in the sequence x+3, - 2x^2 - 6x, 4x^3 +12x^2

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

$a_8=-128x^8-384x^7$

Step-by-step explanation:

The terms of the sequence are:

$x+3,-2x^2-6x,4x^3+12x^2,...$

We can rewrite the terms in factored form to get;

$x+3,-2x(x+3),4x^2(x+3),...$

We can see that the subsequent terms are obtained by multiplying the previous term by $-2x$ . This is called the common ratio.

Therefore the first term of this geometric sequence is $a_1=x+3$ and the common ratio is $r=-2x$ .

The nth term of a geometric sequence is given by: $a_n=a_1(r^{n-1})$ .

Let us substitute the first term, the common ratio, and $n=8$ to obtain:

$a_8=(x+3)(-2x)^{8-1}$

$a_8=(x+3)(-2x)^{7}$

$a_8=-128x^7(x+3)$

$a_8=-128x^8-384x^7$
