The answer is x =14/5

2x+5-x=3 (2×-3)

distribute the 3.
2x + 5 -x = 6x -9

Combine like terms on the left.
x +5 = 6x -9

Subtract the 6x term from both sides.
-5x + 5 = -9

Subtract the 5 to both sides.
-5x = -14

Divide both sides by -5.
x = 14/5

Write the series using summation notation.<br><br> 4 + 8 + 12 + 16 + 20+ . . . + 80
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

\sum ^{20} _{n \to \11} 4n

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to write the series using the summation notation, first we need to find the nth term of the sequence formed. The sequence generated by the series is an arithmetic sequence as shown;

4, 8, 12, 16, 20...80

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is expressed as Tn = a +(n-1)d

a is the first term = 4

d is the common difference = 21-8 = 8-4 = 4

n is the number of terms

On substituting, Tn = 4+(n-1)4

Tn = 4+4n-4

Tn = 4n

The nth term of the series is 4n.

Since the last term is 80, L = 4n

80 = 4n

n = 80/4

n = 20

This shows that the total number of terms in the sequence is 20

According to the series given 4 + 8 + 12 + 16 + 20+ . . . + 80 , we are to take the sum of the first 20terms of the sequence. Using summation notation;

4 + 8 + 12 + 16 + 20+ . . . + 80  = \sum ^{20} _{n \to \11} 4n

7x -7/2 y = -49
7/2 y = 7x + 49
y = 2x + 14
y - intercept = 14
x - intercept : 2x + 14 = 0 so x = -7

answer is C.
x - intercept : -7
y - intercept : 14

A group of 52 people attend a ball game. There were three times as many men as women in the group. Write and solve a system of e
kkurt [141]

Answer:

lets call the children, c, and call adult, a,

c+a= 52       eq 1: a=52-c

c=3a            eq 2

take a's value from eq 1 and plug it into eq 2

c=3(52-c)

c=156-3c

4c=156

c=39 the number of children that attended the ball game.

Estefani‘s house is at point E (3,-2) and Jasmin’s house is at point J (-5,3). Jasmin’s house is the Mid-point of Estefani’s hou
iren [92.7K]

The formula for midpoint is

(\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2}, \frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2})

Look at the image below to see the line segment of Estefani's (A), Jasmin's (M), and Preston's (B) houses. Keep in mind that the segment shown below is not accurate in regards to how the line segment formed by Estefani's, Jasmin's, and Preston's houses. It is simply there so you can picture the segment better.

In this case:

x_{1} =3\\x_{2} =unknown\\y_{1} =-2\\y_{2} =unknown

^^^Plug in these number into the formula given above...

(\frac{3+x}{2}, \frac{-2 + y}{2})

To find what x is (a coordinate of Preston's house) you must take the x-value part of the midpoint equation (\frac{3+x}{2}) and set it equal to the x-value of the midpoint (-5). Then you must solve for x:

\frac{3+x}{2} = -5

3 + x = -5 * 2

3 + x = -10

x = -10 - 3

x = -13

To find what y is (a coordinate of Preston's house) you must take the  y-value part of the midpoint equation(\frac{-2 + y}{2}) and set it equal to the y-value of the midpoint (3). Then you must solve for y:

\frac{-2 + y}{2} = 3

-2 + y = 3 * 2

-2 + y = 6

y = 6 + 2

y = 8

The coordinate of Preston's house is:

(-13, 8)

Hope this helped!
