The answer is -3.

To find this, we simply have to solve the equation and leave only the blank and the parenthesis that it is with on the right side. Then we can divide by the parenthesis. The work for this is done for you below.

____(x - 3) + 2x = -(x - 5) + 4 ----> Distribute the -1 to the parenthesis.

____(x + 3) + 2x = -x + 5 + 4 ----> Simplify

____(x + 3) + 2x = -x + 9 ----> Subtract 2x from both sides

____(x + 3) = -3x + 9 ------> Divide both sides by x + 3

____ = -3.

Let the missing number be 'y'

= > y(x - 3) + 2x = - (x - 5) + 4 \\ \\ = > y(x - 3) + 2x= - x + 5 + 4 \\ \\ = > y(x - 3) = - x - 2x + 9 \\ \\ = > y(x - 3) = - 3x + 9 \\ \\ = > y = \frac{ - 3(x - 3)}{(x - 3)} \\ \\ = > y = - 3

\boxed{Missing \: number = -3}

2.the solution set of x +y =5 and x-y =3
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

Check the solution below

Step-by-step explanation:

2) Given the equation

x +y =5... 1 and

x-y =3 ... 2

Add both equations

x+x = 5+3

2x = 8

x = 8/2

x = 4

Substitute x = 4 into 1:

From 1: x+y = 5

4+y= 5

y = 5-4

y = 1

3) Given

x+3y =15 ... 1

2x+7y=19 .... 2

From 2: x = 15-3y

Substitute into 2

2(15-3y)+7y = 19

30-6y+7y = 19

30+y = 19

y = 19-30

y = -11

Substitute y=-11 into x = 15-3y

x =15-3(-11)

x = 15+33

x = 48

The solution set is (48, -11)

4) given

x/2 +y/3 =0 and x+2y=1

From 1

(3x+2y)/6 = 0

3x+2y = 0.. 3

x+2y= 1... 4

From 4: x = 1-2y

Substutute

3(1-2y) +2y = 0

3-6y+2y = 0

3 -4y = 0

4y = 3

y = 3/4

Since x = 1-2y

x = 1-2(3/4)

x = 1-3/2

x= -1/2

The solution set is (-1/2, 3/4)

5) Given

5.x=1/2 and y =x +1 then solution is

We already know the vkue of x

Get y

y= x+1

y = 1/2 + 1

y = 3/2

Hence the solution set is (1/2, 3/2)

6) Given

3x +y =5 and x -3y =5

From 3; x = 5+3y

Substitute into 1;

3(5+3y)+y = 5

15+9y+y = 5

10y = 5-15

10y =-10

y = -1

Get x;

x = 5+3y

x = 5+3(-1)

x = 5-3

x = 2

Hence two solution set is (2,-1)

What function was used to make that pattern​
Semenov [28]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The differences in the terms of f(x) are + 3, + 5, + 7

Since the differences are not constant the relationship is not linear

Note the differences in the differences are + 2, + 2,

The second differences are constant indicating a quadratic relationship

Note the relationship between x and f(x)

x = 1 → 1² = 1 ← require to add 5, that is 1 + 5 = 6 ← value of f(x)

x = 2 → 2²  = 4 ← require to add 5, that is 4 + 5 = 9 ← value of f(x)

x = 3 → 3² = 9 ← require to add 5, that is 9 + 5 = 14 ← value of f(x)

x = 4 → 4² = 16 ← require to add 5, that is 16 + 5 = 21 ← value of f(x)

Thus f(x) = x² + 5 → B
