-2x - 13 = -3x - 5​

Step 1: Combine like terms

x's go with x's (-2x and -3x). To do this add 2x to both sides

(-2x + 2x) - 13 = (-3x + 2x) - 5​

(0) - 13 = (-x) - 5​

- 13 = -x - 5​

normal numbers go with normal numbers ( -13 and -5). To do this add 5 to both sides

(- 13 + 5) = -x + (- 5 +​ 5)

-8 = -x + (0)

-8 = -x

Step 2: Isolate x by dividing -1 to both sides (this will take the negative sign away from the x)

\frac{-8}{-1} =\frac{-x}{-1}

8 = x

x= 8

Hope this helped!

Answer:

\sf f(-3) = 23

<u>given:</u>

\sf f(x) = 3x^2 -4

to find the output, replace x with the given integer.

solve:

\sf f(-3) = 3(-3)^2 -4

\sf f(-3) = 3(9) -4

\sf f(-3) = 27 -4

\sf f(-3) = 23

Need help ASAP thank you
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

First put it into slope intercept form

20 = 2x - 8

Move the variable to the left hand side and change its symbol

-2x + 20 = -8

Move the constant to the right hand side and change its symbol

-2x = -8 - 20

Calculate the difference

-2x = -28

Divide both sides of the equation by -2

x = 14

Solution

X = 14

Factor the algebraic expression below in terms of a single trigonometric function. sin 2x + sin x - 2
Pie

Answer:

The factored form is (sin x +2)(sin x-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the trigonometric function \sin^2 x +\sinx-2

We can factor this by AC method. In AC method we multiply the term a and c and then write the middle term b in such a way that the sum/difference is equal to the product 'ac'

Using the method, we can write sinx as 2sinx -sinx

\sin^2 x +2\sinx-\sin x-2

Now, we group the first two terms and the last two terms

(\sin^2 x +2\sinx)+(-\sin x-2)

Now, we take GCF from each group

\sin x(\sin x +2)-1(\sin x+2)

Factor out (sinx+2)

(\sin x +2)(\sin x-1)

Therefore, the factored form is (sin x +2)(sin x-1)
