Mathematics

Hello!

Here's how to solve for x.

27=17+2x

Our first step is to subtract 17 from both sides, leaving us with

27-17=17(-17)+2x --- > 10=2x

We then divide both sides by 2 to isolate  x!

10/2=2x/2

10 divided by 2 gives us 5 meaning that x=5

x = 5
move variable to left side and change its sign
27 = 17 + 2x
to
(you also move the constant to the right and change its sign)
- 2x = 17 - 27
and then calculate the operation in this case you find the difference
- 2x= 17 - 27 =  - 10 \\   - 2x =  - 10
you then divide both sides of the equation by -2 since the inverse operation of multiplying is division
x = 5
:) hope that helps

A rancher wishes to enclose a rectangular pasture with 320 feet of fencing. the fencing will be used on three sides of the pastu
bulgar [2K]
Let each side perpendicular to the wall be x
The parallel to the wall will be 320-2x
the area will be:
A(x)=x(320-2x)
A(x)=320x-2x^2
This is a quadratic with a =-2 and b=320

Maximum area will occur where x=-b/2a
=-320/(-2*2)
=80 ft
thus the width will be 80 ft and the length will be:
length=320-2*80=160 ft

Algebra help anyone?
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

The answer is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that f(2)=1/5

And f(n+1)=f(n)*10

Let's start from n=2

f(2+1)=f(2)*10

f(3)=(1/5)*10

f(3)=2

Now let's take n=3

f(3+1)=f(3)*10

f(4)=2*10

f(4)=20
