Three times a number increased by ten is equal to twenty less than six times the number. Find the number

Mathematics

4 0

Let the number be x. "Three times a number increased by 10" is mathematically translated as

3x + 10

"is equal" is mathematically translated as twenty less than six times the number" is mathematically translated as

6x - 20

The whole sentence "Three times a number increased by ten is equal to twenty less than six times the number" is translated as

3x + 10 = 6x - 20

We now solve the above linear equation to find the number x

3x - 6x = - 20 - 10

- 3x = - 30

x = 10

Check answer

Three times a number increased by ten : 3 × 10 + 10 = 40

Twenty less than six times the number : 6 × 10 - 20 = 40

Help plzz i will give you brianliest Which best describes the graph of the function f(x) = 3(1.8)^x A) The graph passes through
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with why C isn't the answer.

y = 1.8^0 . The power is zero. Anything to the zero power (anything except 0 to the 0 power) is 1. So 1.8^0 is 1 not something else. C assumes that somehow 0,1.8 turns into 1.8. It does not. The second part is also wrong but you don't need it. However here it is.

x = 0        y = 3

x = 1         y = 3 * 1.8 = 5.4

x = 2        y = 3 * 1.8^2 = 3*3.24 = 9.72

You should be able to see that if you multiply 5.4 by 3, you don't get 9.72

C just does not work.

=======

The actual answer is A. That's exactly what the graph does. If you multiply 5.4 * 1.8 you should get 9.72. Just for completeness, I've included the graph.
