3( x - 1 ) = 2 x + 5

Expand 3(x-1) :

3*x - 3 x 1

3 x - 3 = 2 x + 5

Add 3 both sides :

3 x - 3 + 3 = 2 x + 5 + 3

3 x = 2 x + 8

3x - 2 x = 8

x = 8

hope this helps!

What is the following sum? Assume x greater-than-or-equal-to 0 and y greater-than-or-equal-to 0

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

$\sqrt{x^2y^3}+2\sqrt{x^3y^4}+xy\sqrt{y}=2xy^2\sqrt{x}+2xy\sqrt{y}$

Hence, ption B is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

$\sqrt{x^2y^3}+2\sqrt{x^3y^4}+xy\sqrt{y}$

solving the expression

$\sqrt{x^2y^3}+2\sqrt{x^3y^4}+xy\sqrt{y}$

$\sqrt{x^2y^3}=xy\sqrt{y}$

$2\sqrt{x^3y^4}=2xy^2\sqrt{x}$

so the expression becomes

$\:\sqrt{x^2y^3}+2\sqrt{x^3y^4}+xy\sqrt{y}=xy\sqrt{y}+2xy^2\sqrt{x}+xy\sqrt{y}$

Group like terms

$=2xy^2\sqrt{x}+xy\sqrt{y}+xy\sqrt{y}$

Add similar elements

$=2xy^2\sqrt{x}+2xy\sqrt{y}$

Therefore, we conclude that:

$\sqrt{x^2y^3}+2\sqrt{x^3y^4}+xy\sqrt{y}=2xy^2\sqrt{x}+2xy\sqrt{y}$

Hence, option B is true.
