So what you need to do in an equation like this is first to distribute meaning the number directly outside the parentheses needs to be multiplied by the numbers inside the parentheses:
3x + 6 = 5 then: subtract each side by six
3x = -1 now: divide each side by 3 to get x by itself
x = -1/3

When Brad was born, his Grandma put, $1,500 in a new account for him. Since then, the balance of the account, has grown by 6.5%
marin [14]

Answer:

$969.04

Step-by-step explanation:

now at age of 18 Brad has 1500 * 1,065^18

at age of 21 he will have 1500 * 1,065^21

if he waits the difference will be 1500 * 1,065^21 - 1500 * 1,065^18 = $969.04

Choose the table that represents g(x) = −2⋅f(x) when f(x) = x + 4
fomenos

Answer:

  x g(x)

  1 −10

  2 −12

  3 −14

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the values and do the arithmetic.

Table values for x are 1, 2, 3. We only need to find g(1) to determine which table is the correct choice.

  f(1) = 1 +4 = 5 . . . . . . . . . put 1 where x is and do the arithmetic

 g(1) = -2·f(1) = -2·5 = -10 . . . . . matches the 3rd choice

First order equations include linear equations. In the coordinate system, the linear equations are defined for lines. A linear equation in one variable is one in which there is a homogeneous variable of degree 1 (i.e., only one variable). Multiple variables may be present in a linear equation. Linear equations in two variables, for example, are used when a linear equation contains two variables. Examples of linear equations include 2x - 3 = 0, 2y = 8, m + 1 = 0, x/2 = 3, and 3x - y + z = 3.

Total books borrowed = 8+4 = 12

No. of non - fiction books = 7

No. of fiction books = 12 -7

                                    = 5
