Answer:

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

3(2x+2) = 3x - 15

First, we should simplify on the left side.

6x + 6 = 3x - 15 ; Now we subtract six from both sides.

      -6          -6

6x = 3x - 21 ; next we just subtract 3x from both sides.

-3x   -3x

3x = -21

Finally, we divide 3 from both sides to separate the three from the x.

x = -7

Hope this helps!! <3 :)

Hi there! :)

Answer:

x = -7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting with:

3(2x + 2) = 3x - 15

Begin by distributing '3' with the terms inside of the parenthesis:

3(2x) + 3(2) = 3x - 15

Simplify:

6x + 6 = 3x - 15

Isolate the variable by subtracting '3x' from both sides:

6x - 3x + 6 = 3x - 3x - 15

3x + 6 = -15

Subtract 6 from both sides:

3x + 6 - 6 = -15 - 6

3x = -21

Divide both sides by 3:

3x/3 = -21/3

x = -7.

Answer:

YES

Step-by-step explanation:

Why is the classmate correct?

The reason why the classmate is correct is that everything can turn 360 degrees. This means that a square, has to turn 360 degrees, and it does that by doing 90x4. This means that it has 90-degree angles, which turn 4 times. And that makes 360. That's how this is also correct. Because this classmate turned a figure 270 degrees clockwise, and also, 360-270=90, which means that turning that figure 90 degrees counter-clockwise will make it in that same position.

To check whether this is right or not, take an object, probably like a book. Then turn it 90 degrees to counter-clockwise, and note down the position, that the front of the book is now facing left, and the back of the book is now facing right. Then, turn it back to normal position, (back of the book facing you), then, turn it 3 times 90 degrees towards Clockwise, in that way, you can see, that the book turns in the same way it did when you did 90 degrees counter-clockwise!

Thanks!

Complete the sentence below. A function f is​ _____ on an open interval I​ if, for any choice of x1 and x2 in​ I, with x1less th
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Increasing if f' >0 and decreasing if f'<0

Step-by-step explanation:

Difference quotient got by getting

\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h} will be greater than 0 if function is increasing otherwise negative

Here h is a small positive value.

In other words, we find that whenever first derivative of a function f(x) is positive the function is increasing.

Here given that for x1, x2 where x1<x2, we have

if f(x1) <f(x2) then the function is decreasing.

Or if x1<x2 and if f(x1) >f(x2) for all x1, and x2 in I the open interval we say f(x) is decreasing in I.
