Four times a number increased by 3 is the same as twice the number increased by 9? I'm horrible at these

The question says:
4(x) +3 = 2(x) + 9 
so now you need to find x
first you should add -2(x) on both sides of the equation and then add -3 on both sides:
4(x) - 2(x) = 9 - 3 
2(x) = 6
now you can divide both sides by 2:
x = 6/2 
x = 3 :)))
I hope this is helpful
have a nice day

Four times a number (we are gonna make that be "x") increased by 3 would be 4x+3 it says it is the same as (means it is equal to) twice the number (2x) increased by 9 (+9) so the full equation would be 4x+3=2x+9
You have to solve for the number (x).
4x+3=2x+9
-2x -2x (Have to get the x's to one side)
2x+3=9
-3 -3 (you have to get the numbers on one side too)
2x=6
/2 /2 (to get x alone)
X=3 (the number is 3)

Write a quadratic equation in STANDARD FORM given the roots:<br> 1, 1/2
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

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

Step-by-step explanation:

The root 1 is associated with the factor (x - 1).

The root 1/2 is associated with the factor (x - 1/2), which in turn is equivalent to (2x -1)

The quadratic in question is f(x) = (x - 1)(2x - 1).  To write this in standard form, perform the indicated multiplication:

f(x) = 2x^2 - 2x - x + 1, or f(x) = 2x^2 - 3x + 1

Hello there, <br><br> can someone please help me with this question
monitta

Answer:

10 sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two same interior angles + 72 degrees = 360.

Thus, the interior angle of the polygon is \frac{360-72}{2} =144.

The formula to find the interior angle of a polygon is \frac{180(n-2)}{n}

\frac{180(n-2)}{n} =144

Multiply both sides by n:

\frac{180\left(n-2\right)}{n}n=144n

180\left(n-2\right)=144n

Expand:

180n-360=144n

Add 360 to both sides:

180n-360+360=144n+360

180n=144n+360

Subtract 144n from both sides:

180n-144n=144n+360-144n

36n=360

Divide both sides by 36:

\frac{36n}{36}=\frac{360}{36}

n=10
