The equation 3x+4=5x-4 has the solution set {4}. explain why the equation (3x+4)+4=5x-4)+4 also has the solution set {4}

1 answer:

5 0

Notice that the terms in parentheses on both sides of the equation are added to 4.

(3x + 4) + 4 = (5x - 4) + 4

So we can set the equation as.

3x + 4 = 5x - 4

Subtract 3x on both sides of equation.

4 = 2x - 4

Add 4 on both sides of equation.

8 = 2x

Divide both sides of equation by 2.

4 = x

4 is the only value that satisfies the statement.

Write a rule for each pattern. Then use your rule to find the next two terms in the pattern. The numbers are: 1, 3, 6, 10, 15, 2

Triangular Number Sequence

This is the Triangular Number Sequence:

1, 3, 6, 10, 15, 21, 28, 36, 45, ...

This sequence comes from a pattern of dots that form a triangle:

By adding another row of dots and counting all the dots we can
find the next number of the sequence.

A Rule

We can make a "Rule" so we can calculate any triangular number.

First, rearrange the dots (and give each pattern a number n), like this:

Then double the number of dots, and form them into a rectangle:

The rectangles are n high and n+1 wideand xn is how many dots in the triangle (the value of the Triangular Number n)

And we get (remembering we doubled the dots):

2xn = n(n+1)xn = n(n+1)/2

Rule: xn = n(n+1)/2

Example: the 5th Triangular Number is

x5 = 5(5+1)/2 = 15

Example: the 60th is

x60 = 60(60+1)/2 = 1830

Wasn't it much easier to use the formula than to add up all those dots?
