      3(x + 2) = 5x - 2
  3(x) + 3(2) = 5x - 2
        3x + 6 = 5x - 2
     <u>- 3x         - 3x      </u>
                6 = 2x - 2
           <u>  + 2        + 2</u>
                <u>8</u> = <u>2x</u>
                2     2
                4 = x

Answer:

#1.  x = -1

Answer = 8

#2. x = 1/5

Answer = 344/25

#3. x = 14

Answer =  13328

Step-by-step explanation:

#1. a. plug in -1

f(-1)= (5(-1)^3) - (2(-1)^2 - (-1) + 14

b. Solve the exponents.

(5(-1)^3)

(5x-1)

(-5) - (2(-1)^2) - (-1) + 14

(2(-1)^2)

(2x1)

(-5) - (2) - (-1) +14

c. simplify.

(-5) - (2) + 1 + 14

-7 + 15

8

#2.

f(1/5)= (5(1/5)^3) - (2(1/5)^2 - (1/5) + 14

(5(1/5)^3)

(5 x 1/125)

(1/25) - (2(1/5)^2)

(2 x 1/25)

(2/25)

(1/25) - (2/25) - (1/5) +14

(-1/25) - (1/5) +14

Note: (1/5) turns into (5/25) so it can be subtracted.

-6/25 + 14

Note: 14 turns into 350/25 so it can be added.

350/25 - 6/25 = 344/25

#3.

f(14)= (5(14)^3) - (2(14)^2 - (14) + 14

Note: Normally you do the exponents first but I'm just going to casually take out the two 14s at the end cause they cancel each other out.

f(14)= (5(14)^3) - (2(14)^2)

( 5 (14^3))

(5 x  2744)

(13720) - (2(14^2))

(2 (14^2))

(2x196)

392

(13720) - 392

13328

Good Luck!

ladessa [460]

Hello,

Write an expression to describe a rule for the sequence. Then find the 100th term in the sequence. 4,9,14,19,24,29...

Rule: +5

This question was relatively simple because all you had to do was divide the total in the answer choices by 100 and to see if you would get by 5

Since it starts at 4 and that dosen't evenly match with 100 the answer is A. 4+5n;504

What are 2 different equivalent fractions for LaTeX: \frac{2}{6}2 6 ? *In your answer, use a "/" as a fraction bar symbol. For e
Orlov [11]

Answer:

<em> 4/12 and 6/18</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the fraction 2/6

We are to write  2 different equivalent fractions that are the same as 2/6

To do this, we will multiply the numerator and denominator of the fraction by same constant. Multiply the numerator and denominator by 2 will give;

2/6 * 2/2

= (2*2)/(6*2)

= 4/12

Also multiplying by a value of 3

= 2/6 * 3/3

= (2*3)/(6*3)

= 6/18

<em>Hence the 2 different equivalent fractions are 4/12 and 6/18</em>
