Answer: x = -8

Step-by-step explanation: To solve for x in this equation, our first task is to simplify the left side by distributing the 12 through both terms inside the parentheses.

When we do that, we get 12 times x which is

12x and 12 times 10 which is 120.

So we have 12x + 120 = 24.

Our next task is to isolate the x term by subtracting 120 from both sides of the equation. On the left, 120 - 120 cancels and we're left with 12x. On the right, 24 - 120 simplifies to -96 so we have 12x = -96.

To get x by itself, we divide both sides by 12 and x = -8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

f(x) = 3x + 5

g(x) = x²

(f - g)(x) is f(x) - g(x)

Step 2: Find (f - g)(x)

Substitute: (f - g)(x) = 3x + 5 - x²
Rewrite: (f - g)(x) = -x² + 3x + 5

Answer: $110

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: At Simba Travel Agency, the price of a climbing trip to Mount Kilimanjaro includes an initial fee plus a constant fee per meter.

F(d)models the fee (in dollars) for climbing d meters.

$F(d)=110+0.12d$

To find the initial amount, substitute d=0 int the above function, we get

$F(0)=110+0.12(0)=110$

Hence, the initial fee= $110.

Answer:

$5^{12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets say there's a number 'x' and there's an expression $(x^a)^b$ where 'a' & 'b' are also numbers , the simplified form of the expression is $x^{a \times b}$ .

So ,

$(5^4)^3 = 5^{4 \times 3} = 5^{12}$
