The answer to your math question is x=5
The picture will now be 7.5 inches high by 18 inches wide.
Plug in 3 for x. 5(3) (-2(3) x 2) = 15(-6 x 2) = 15(-12) = -180.
Steps to solving equations:
Simplify/combine the like terms
Isolate the variable (Get the variable on one side
Solve for the variable
-2y - 7 + 5y = 13 - 2y Simplify/Combine terms
3y -7 = 13 - 2y Isolate variable by adding 2y to both sides
5y - 7 = 13 Add 7 to both sides to get y alone on one side
5y = 20 Divide by 5 on both sides to solve for y
y = 4
You can check your answer by replacing y with 4 in the original equation.
(f-g) (x) means to subtract g(x) from f(x)
F(x) = 2x^2 +3
g(x) = x^2
This becomes:
2x^2 + 3 - x^2 = x^2 +3
