Answer:
The third expression: (2x)^3
Step-by-step explanation:
Plug in 3 for x in each expression
2x^3
2(3)^3
Use PEMDAS
2 (3 × 3 × 3)
2 (9 × 3)
2 (27)
54
2x^3 + 5
(The last expression told us 2x^3 = 54 so feel free to use this information to make life easier)
54 + 5
59
(2x)^3
(2 × 3)^3
Use PEMDAS
6^3
6 × 6 × 6
36 × 6
216
(x - 1)^3
(3 - 1)^3
Use PEMDAS
2^3
2 × 2 × 2
4 × 2
8
216 is the greatest value so the third expression is the answer
X = 4.
You have to distribute by multiplying -4 by the numbers between -3x and -2.
12x + 8 =60
Subtract the 8 from 60 to simplify the equation.
12x = 48
Divide 12 by 48 and get 4.
x=4
Terminating because the decimal ends rather than going on forever which would be repeating
Answer:
- 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
turn 2/5 to have the same denominator as 10
2 ( 2 ) = 4
5 ( 2 ) = 10
4/10 - 9/10
= -5/10
simplify
-5/10 = -1/2
hope this helps
