Answer:

option D is correct

The value of x is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function: f(x) = 2(x+10)

if f(x) = 24 then solve for x;

Distributive property of multiplication states that when a number is multiplied by the sum of two numbers, then the first number can be distributed to both of those numbers and multiplied by each of them separately.

i,e  a\cdot(b+c) = a\cdot b+ a\cdot c

f(x) = 2(x+10)

Applying distributive property we have;

f(x) = 2\cdot x + 2\cdot 10 = 2x+20

Now, substitute the value of f(x) = 24 to solve for x;

24 = 2x+20

Subtraction property of equality states that you subtract the same number to both sides of an equation.

Subtract 20 to both sides of an equation, we get

24-20 = 2x+20-20

Simplify:

4 = 2x

Division property of equality states that you divide the same number to both sides of an equation.

Divide both sides by 2 we get

\frac{4}{2} = \frac{2x}{2}

Simplify:

x =2

therefore, the value of x is 2.

Answer:

1.) 6

2.) -1

3.) 36

4.) 1/3

5.) 90

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) -12/a

-12/a -> -12/2

=6

2.) a+ (-b)

a+(-b) -> 2+(-3)

=-1

3.) 3a (12-2b)

3a(12-2b) -> 3(2) (12-2x3)

6(12-6)

6(6)

=36

4.) 2a-c/b

2a-c/b -> 2(2)-5/3

4-5/3

=1/3

5.) 3abc

3abc-> 3x2x3x5

=90
