3x+5(4x-6)-8=3x-14

Step-by-step explanation:

Cancel out the terms on both sides of the equation. (3x)

5(4x-6)-8=-14

Distribute 5 through the parentheses.

20x-30-8=-14

Calculate the difference.

20x-38=-14

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign.

20x=-14+28

Calculate the sum.

20x=24

Divide both sides of the equation by 20.

x=6/5, 1.2, or 1 1/5

Answer:

x=6/5, 1.2, or 1 1/5

Hope this helps! :)

Find the generating function for the sequence 1,-2,4,-8, 16, ...
kirill [66]

Answer:

  a(x)=\dfrac{1}{1+2x}

Step-by-step explanation:

The generating function a(x) produces a power series ...

  a(x)=a_0+a_1x+a_2x^2+a_3x^3+\dots

where the coefficients are the elements of the given sequence.

We observe that the given sequence has the recurrence relation ...

  a_0=1;a_n=-2a_{n-1} \quad\text{for n $>$ 0}

This can be rearranged to ...

  a_n+2a_{n-1}=0

We can formulate this in terms of a(x) as follows, then solve for a(x).

\sum\limits^{\infty}_{n=1} {a_{n}x^n} =a(x)-a_0 \quad\text{and}\\\\\sum\limits^{\infty}_{n=1} {2a_{n-1}x^n} =(2x)a(x) \quad\text{so}\\\\\sum\limits^{\infty}_{n=1} {(a_n+2a_{n-1})x^n}=0=a(x)-a_0+2xa(x)\\\\a(x)=\dfrac{a_0}{1+2x}=\dfrac{1}{1+2x}

The generating function is ...

  a(x) = 1/(1+2x)

100 POINTS plz help Chuck drops a rock from a height of 70 m. How long will it take the rock to hit the ground?
lord [1]

Answer:

3.8

Step-by-step explanation:

We are going to plug in the values of the equation, so h(t)=-4.9^2+v0t+h0 will

now be h(t)=-4.9^2+0+70

Now we will find the a b and c of the equation,  a=-4.9 b=0 c=70

Now we must find the discriminant of the equation,  which the equation for that is D=b^2+(-4)(a)(c)

So D=1,372

Now we use the quadratic formula (see picture below for finished product)
