x = 2(x+2) + 3(x-1) = 3x + 7
2x + 4 + 3x -3 = 3x + 7
2x + 3x - 3x = 7 - 4 + 3
2x = 6
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
To do Order of Operations, we need to go with the order of the formula, PEMDAS.
P= Parenthesis
E= Exponents
M= Multiply (Whatever Comes First in Equation: M and D)
D= Divide
A= Addition (Whatever Comes First in Equation: A and S)
S= Subtraction
---------------------------------------------
So, we need to start with parenthesis, there aren't any, so we move on to Exponents.
There are no Exponents either, so we start with division, then multiplication.
(We always have to go left to right).
So,
-9 - 6 + <u>8 / -4</u> x -2
-9 - 6 + <u>-2 x -2</u>
-9 - 6 + 4
Our problem is:
-9 - 6 + 4
We do subtraction, then addition. (Left to Right)
<u>-9 - 6 </u>+ 4
<u>-15 + 4</u>
-11.
Therefore, the answer is -11.
(Corrected)
50
there’s no way x is 360 or 140
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 1.8x is a linear function and does not model the growth of bacteria. Perhaps you meant f(x) = 1.8^x, which is an exponential function whose initial value is 1. Please ensure that you have copied down this problem exactly as it was presented.
