Answer:

X=8

Step-by-step explanation:

7x - 2 = 5x + 14

Subtract 5x from both sides

2x-2=14

Add 2 to each side

2x=16

Divide by 2

x=8

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

7x - 2 = 5x + 14

7x - 2 - 5x = 5x + 14 - 5x

2x -2 = 14

2x -2 + 2 = 14 + 2

2x = 16

2x /2 = 16/2

x= 8

Hope this helps ^-^

A photo is 5 inches wide and 8 inches long is enlarged. how long is the new photo if it is (1) 10 inches; (2)15 inches;(3)8 iinc
Bess [88]
The ratio of width to height is 5 to 8. Using this ratio, you can determine the lengths.
1. 5/8=10/x
5x=80
x=16in
2. 5/8=15/x
5x=120
x=24in
3. 5/8 = 8/x
5x=64
x=12.8in

The functions f and g are defined as follows.
g100num [7]

Answer:

f(-5)=-16\\g(2)=-11

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, a relation is a function if and only if each input value have one and only one output value.

The input values are the x-values and the output values are the y-values.

Given the function f(x):

f(x)=3x-1

You need to substitute x=-5 into this function:

f(-5)=3(-5)-1

And now you must evaluate in order to find the corresponding output value.

You get:

f(-5)=-15-1\\\\f(-5)=-16

The function g(x) is:

g(x)=-2x^2-3

Then, you need to substitute x=2 in the function:

g(2)=-2(2)^2-3

And  finally you must evaluate in order to find the corresponding output value. This is:

g(2)=-2(4)-3\\\\g(2)=-8-3\\\\g(2)=-11

It is known that x1 and x2 are roots of the equation 3x^2+2x+k=0, where 2x1=−3x2. Find k.
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

k = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the roots of the equation 3x² + 2x + k are x₁ and x₂ and 2x₁ = 3x₂.

By the roots of an equation, ax² + bx + c , where its roots are  x₁ and x₂. It follows that sum of roots are x₁ + x₂ = -b/a and product of roots are x₁x₂ = c/a.

Comparing both equations, a = 3 b = 2 and c = k.

So, x₁ + x₂ = -b/a = -2/3 and x₁x₂ = c/a = k/3

x₁ + x₂ = -2/3 and x₁x₂ = k/3

3x₁ + 3x₂ = -2 (1) and 3x₁x₂ = k  (2)

Since 2x₁ = -3x₂, and -2x₁ = 3x₂substituting this into equations (1) and (2) above, we have

3x₁ + 3x₂ = -2 (1) and 3x₁x₂ = k  (2)

3x₁ + (-2x₁) = -2  and x₁(3x₂) = k

3x₁ - 2x₁ = -2  and x₁(3x₂) = k  

x₁ = -2  and x₁(-2x₁) = k  

x₁ = -2  and -2x₁² = k  

Substituting x₁ = -2 into -2x₁² = k, we have

-2x₁² = k

-2(-2)² = k

2(4) = k

8 = k

So, k = 8
