Answer:

all real numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

-(2x + 4) + x = 3x − 4x − 4

Distribute the negative sign on the left side. It is the same as having a -1 to the left of the parentheses.

-1(2x + 4) + x = 3x − 4x − 4

-2x - 4 + x = 3x - 4x - 4

Combine like terms on the left side. Combine like terms on the right side.

-x - 4 = -x - 4

Add 4 to both sides.

-x = -x

Add x to both sides.

0 = 0

You end up with a true equation. Therefore, there is an infinite number of solutions. Every real number is a solution.

Answer: all real numbers

Factor the binomial 9t to second power,-4 =
Naily [24]

Using subtraction of perfect squares, it is found that the factored expression is:

9t² - 4 = (3t - 2)(3t + 2).

<h3>What is the subtraction of perfect squares factoring?</h3>

It is given as follows:

a^2 - b^2 = (a - b)(a + b)

In this problem, the binomial is given as follows:

9t² - 4.

Hence:

  • a² = 9t² -> a = 3t.
  • b² = 4 -> b = 2.

Hence the factored expression is:

9t² - 4 = (3t - 2)(3t + 2).

Find the sum of QR<br> 4x+33
12345 [234]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

4x + 5 = 33

Reorder the terms:

5 + 4x = 33

Solving

5 + 4x = 33

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-5' to each side of the equation.

5 + -5 + 4x = 33 + -5

Combine like terms: 5 + -5 = 0

0 + 4x = 33 + -5

4x = 33 + -5

Combine like terms: 33 + -5 = 28

4x = 28

Divide each side by '4'.

x = 7

Simplifying

x = 7

solve the average time for a student to complete this quiz is 24 24 minutes with a standard deviation of 2 minutes. What is the
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

The correct answer is "(18, 30) minutes".

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean,

= 24

Standard deviation,

= 2

The range of minutes where 99.7% of individuals completed the quiz will be:

= Mean \pm 3\times Stdev

On substituting the values, we get

= 24 \pm 3\times 2

= 24 \pm 6

now,

= 24-6

= 18

Or,

= 24+6

= 30

i.e., 18 to 30 minutes

5 less than a number is equivalent to 1 more than three times the number. the number is​
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

5 less than a number is equivalent to 1 more than three times the number

number = x

x - 5 = 3x + 1

now im going to get the numbers and variable on different sides

x - 5 + 5 = x

3x + 1 - 3x = 1

x + 3x = 4x

1 - 5 = -4

4x = -4

lastly im going to divide each side by 4

4x / 4 = x

-4 / 4 = -1

x = -1
