Can you please help me on -5(x+2)=-(-5x+1)-x

Mathematics
1 answer:
PilotLPTM [1.2K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Distribute</u>

-5(x + 2) = -(-5x + 1) - x

-5x - 10 = 5x - 1 - x

<em>-5x - 10 = 4x - 1</em>

<em />

<u>Step 2:  Solve for x</u>

-5x - 10 + 5x = 4x - 1 + 5x

-10 + 1 = 9x - 1 + 1

-9 / 9 = 9x / 9

<em>-1 = x</em>

<em />

Answer:  x = -1

If g(x ) = 3x - 5, then g -1(x )=
NemiM [27]
G(x) = 3x - 5

let g(x) = y

y = 3x - 5

y + 5 = 3x

3x = y + 5

x = (y + 5)/3

From y = g(x),  x = g⁻¹(y) 

<span>x = (y + 5)/3
</span>
 g⁻¹(y)  = <span>(y + 5)/3</span>

 g⁻¹(x)  = <span>(x + 5)/3</span>

4) 20 + (30+7) +2 = (20 + 30) +7+2<br> Is it cummunitive associtive or Distributive
Komok [63]

Answer:

I believe it is distributive because you are finding the products. Yes, the numbers are mixed up but the parenthesis often involve distributive property.
