X+2(x+3(x+4(x+5)))=153

Mathematics

Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Here first open the inner parentheses and use the distributive property,

4(x+5)=4x+20\\\\(x+4(x+5))=(x+4x+20)=(5x+20)\\\\3(x+4(x+5))=3(5x+20)=15x+60\\\\(x+3(x+4(x+5)))=(x+15x+60)=16x+60\\\\2(x+3(x+4(x+5)))=2(16x+60)=32x+120\\\\x+2(x+3(x+4(x+5)))=x+32x+120=33x+120\\\\\\Hence\ x+2(x+3(x+4(x+5)))=x+32x+120=33x+120\\\\\Rightarrow 33x+120=153\\\\33x=153-120\\\\33x=33\\\\x=1

Through [0, -7/5] and perpendicular to 3x-2y=6
Taya2010 [7]
Find a line going through the point
(0, -7/5) and perpendicular to the equation 3x - 2y = 6.

3x - 2y = 6

-2y = -3x + 6

y = (3/2)x - 3

The slope of the equation we seek must be the negative reciprocal of (3/2), which is -2/3.

So, m = -2/3

Use the point-slope formula. See the picture.

How do you find the first five terms of a sequence defined recursively
Blizzard [7]
Interesting question. Good to know for computer science.
Suppose you have a function like 
an = 3x - 2 Try the first couple
a1 = 3(1) - 2
a1 = 3 - 2
a1 = 1

a2 = 3(2) - 2
a2 = 6 - 2
a2 = 4 So each term differs by 3
a2 - a1 = 3

an = a_(n - 1) + 3
a3 = a2 + 3
a3 = 4 + 3 
a3 = 7

a4 = a3 + 3
a4 = 7 + 3
a4 = 10

a5 = a4+ 3
a5 = 10 + 3
a5 = 13

I'll do one more and then check it.
a6 = a5 + 3
a6 = 13 + 3
a6 = 16

a6 = 3x -2
a6 = 3*6 - 2
a6 = 18 - 2
a6 = 16 which checks.

So the general formula is
an = a_(n - 1) * k if you were multiplying or
an = a_(n - 1) + k if you were adding. The key thing is that you are working with the previous term.
