Answer:

Hey there!

Let's solve our equation below.

-2(x+3)= -2(x+1)-4

Let's distribute the parentheses.

-2x-6=-2x-2-4

We combine like terms.

-2x-6=-2x-6

We add 6 to both sides.

-2x=-2x

We divide both sides by -2

x=x

If, when solving an equation, you get one number or variable that equals itself, there are infinitely many solutions.

We can plug anything into this equation and it will always equal to same things, since x is just equal to whatever x value you want.

Therefore, there are infinitely many solutions.

I hope this helps!

Suppose that a number written as a decimal has an infinite number of non-repeating digits after the decimal point. What is this

Answer:

irrational numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

These types of numbers are known in mathematics as irrational numbers. This is because there is no way to truly rationalize these numbers as we cannot truly rationalize the meaning of infinity. These numbers keep going endlessly and there doesn't exist an end. One example of an irrational number is the value of Pi which we know as a simplified 3.14 but in reality, the value of Pi is endless. The first thousand places of Pi can be seen below

F(x)= sqrt of 5x+7 and g(x)= the sqrt of 5x-7

ki77a [65]

F(x) = √(5x + 7)

g(x) = √(5x - 7)

(f + g)(x) = f(x) + g(x)

(f + g)(x) = √(5x + 7) + √(5x - 7)
