Answer:

  • 2(x +3) = 30
  • 12

Step-by-step explanation:

When x represents the number, "the sum of 3 and a number" is (x+3). Twice that sum is 2(x+3). "Is 30" means this expression is equal to 30:

  2(x +3) = 30 . . . . an equation for the given conditions

__

We can solve this equation by dividing by 2:

  x + 3 = 15

  x = 12 . . . . . . subtract 3

The number is 12.

Function question<br><br>read the graph then solve
viktelen [127]

Answer:

  1. g(5x) = 0
  2. x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

Do what your instructions say: read the graph and solve.

1. In order to find x, you look for the point where g(x) is 4. That point is found where x = -2. (See the first attachment.)

Then 5x = 5·(-2) = -10. To answer the question, you need to find the value of g(-10). Look where the graph crosses the vertical line at x=-10. It is at y=0, so ...

... g(5x) = g(-10) = 0

2. You already found the answer to this when looking for the answer to the first question. g(x) = 0 when x = -10. (See the second attachment.)

Solve the equation for x. <br><br> 2(5x + 3) = 26
Aleksandr [31]

Answer: x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

2(5x+3)=26

Distribute the 2

10x+6=26

Subtract 6 from both sides

10x=20

Divide both sides by 10

x=2
