Step-by-step explanation
Well you gave no answer choices so here are the steps and maybe you can just find out which one isn't here :)
18=2(4+x) first multiply 2 into 4+x
18=8+2x then subtract 8 from the other side
10=2x divide both sides by 2
x=5

Answer:
Infinite solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
<em><u>Distribute the 2 to (n - 1), and distribute the 2 to (3n - 1), like so:</u></em>
2(n - 1) + 4n = 2(3n - 1)
2n - 2 + 4n = 6n - 2
<em><u>Add like terms (2n and 4n):</u></em>
6n - 2 = 6n - 2
<em><u>Subtract 6n from both sides:</u></em>
-2 = -2
Since we ended up with the same term on both sides, we can't do anything else, meaning this equation has infinite solutions.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
n = number of terms n = 5
5/16 (2)^5-1
5/16(2)^4
5/16(16)= 5
The answer to the question is 1. 2 - 1 = 1
