<h2>Solving Equations</h2>
To solve linear equations, we must perform inverse operations on both sides of the equal sign to <em>cancel values out</em>.
- If something is being added to x, subtract it from both sides.
- If something is being subtracted from x, add it on both sides.
- Same with multiplication and division. If x is being divided, multiply. If x is being multiplied, divide.
We perform inverse operations to<em> combine like terms</em>. This means to get x to one side and everything else on the other.
<h2>Solving the Questions</h2><h3>Question 1</h3>

Because 7 is being added to x, subtract it from both sides:

Because x is being multiplied by 5, divide both sides by 5:

Therefore.
.
<h3>Question 2</h3>

Here, we can group all the x values on the left side of the equation. Subtract 5x from both sides:

To isolate x, subtract 4 from both sides:

Divide both sides by 2:

Therefore,
.
<span>The next number should be 4. If you look at every other number, even and odd alternate. 2 is even, 7 is odd, etc. Since 9 is odd, the next number should be even. To figure out what number specifically, you will want to break up the numbers into three columns. 2 3 __
7 12 17
8 9 10 From here, you can see that the pattern will be adding 1 for the top row, 5 for the middle row, and 1 for the bottom row. Since the unknown number is on the top right of the first row, you will add 1 to 3, and the answer is 4.</span>
C. f(x) = – 2 cos 6x + 1
Start by determining the amplitude. Since we've deduced the amplitude is 2, the equation can include either a positive or negative 2 (since amplitude measures absolute value).
Next is the period. The equation for period P is P = (2pi)/b. If P is pi/3, then
pi/3 = (2pi)/b. Thus your b value should be 6.
Finally, the midline would be given by + 1 since adding a unit shifts the function upwards. This means that instead of the highest y value being 2 and the lowest -2, instead you'd have values of 3 and -1.
(3 – 1)/2 = 1 (midpoint theory).
Answer:
the quotient of four times x plus six and two minus two times x plus fourteen
Step-by-step explanation:
Hope this helps!
Let x be the number of 5 points question.
Let y be the number of 2 points question.
Total number of questions is 38
x + y = 38
Total points is 100
5x + 2y = 100
x + y = 38 ------------- (1)
5x + 2y = 100 ---------(2)
From (1):
x + y = 38
x = 38 - y -------------- sub into (2)
5(38 - y) + 2y = 100
190 - 5y + 2y = 100
3y = 90
y = 30 ------------------ sub into (1)
x + 30 = 38
x = 38 - 30
x = 8
There are 8 5-point questions and 30 2-point questions
