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}

PLEASE help. The problem is to find the indicated sum.​
alukav5142 [94]
The indicated sum is 350. The answer is 350 because the E or sigma is making you do (6j+2) ten times. Every time you do 6j+2 you start with j as 1 and add a 1 to j for every time you add. For example, [6(1)+2]+[6(2)+2]+[6(3)+2]...[6(10)+2].

Hope this helps.

construct a polynomial function with the stated properties. third degree with zeros of -2,-1, and 3 and passes through the point
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

f(x) =  - (x + 2)(x + 1)(x - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let f(x) be the 3rd degree polynomial function.

The roots of this function are:

x=-2, x=-1 and x=3.

The factored form is:

f(x) = a(x + 2)(x + 1)(x - 3)

This equation passes through (2,12)

This implies that;

a(2 + 2)(2+ 1)(2 - 3) = 12 \\  - 12a = 12 \\ a =  - 1

The polynomial function is

f(x) =  - (x + 2)(x + 1)(x - 3)
