Which equation has a solution of -2?

Mathematics
1 answer:
kykrilka [37]4 years ago
8 0

Solution:

I'm not sure if there is law for it or not, but you can replace each x to -2 if both sides are equal then the equation is true.

7x - 4 = 6x + 5\\7(-2) - 4 = 6(-2) + 5\\-14-4=-12+5\\-18\neq -7

A. is incorrect.

4x + 3 = 8x - 5\\4(-2) + 3 = 8(-2) - 5\\-8+3=-16-5\\-5\neq -21

B. is incorrect.

6x + 4 = 3x + 10\\6(-2) + 4 = 3(-2) + 10\\-12+4=-6+10\\-8\neq 4

C. is incorrect.

-5x - 3 = -7(x +1)\\-5(-2) - 3 = -7((-2) +1)\\10-3 =-7(-1)\\7=7

D. is correct.

Answer:

D. -5x-3=-7(x+1)

If f(x) = 1 – x, which value is equivalent to |f(i)|?l
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

Square root ( 2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to determine which value is equivalent to | f ( i ) | if the function is: f ( x ) = 1 - x. We know that for the complex number: z = a + b i , the absolute value is: | z | = sqrt( a^2 + b^2 ). In this case: | f ( i )| = | 1 - i |. So: a = 1, b = - 1. | f ( i ) | = sqrt ( 1^2 + ( - 1 )^2) = sqrt ( 1 + 1 ) = sqrt ( 2 ).
