3(x + 4)

Distributive property

= 3(x) +  3(4)

= 2x + 12

x + 2(x+6)

Distributive property

= x + 2(x) + 2(6)

= x + 2x + 12

Combine like terms

= 3x + 12

So

3(x + 4)  = x + 2(x+6) = 3x + 12

Answer: 3x + 12

We know that:
(x^{m}) ^{n}=  x^{mn}
f(x)= 50*(1.05) ^{12x} = 50 * ( 1.05^{12})^{x}  = \\ =50*(1.7959) ^{x}
Answer: A ) f ( x ) = 50(1.05)^x

Hey there!!

How do we find the equation of a line ?

Ans : We take the slope and the y - intercept and get them together.

How do you find slopes?

Ans - In order to find slop, we will need to use the slop formula which is

( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

The two points shown in the above question are

( 4 , -8 ) and ( 8 , 5 )

y₂ = 5 , y₁ = -8 and x₂ = 8 , x₁ = 4

Now plug in the values:

( 5 + 8 ) / ( 8 - 5 )

13 / 3

Hence, the slope is 13/3

The basic formula : y = mx + b

Where b is the y-intercept and m is the slope.

We have found the slope, hence, the formula would become

... y = 13/3 x + b

Now take a coordinate and substitute it .

I will take ( 8 , 5 )

x = 8 and y = 5

Now plug in the values

... 5 = 13/3 × 5 + b

... 5 = 65/3 + b

Subtract 65/3 on both sides

... 5 - 65/3 = b

... -50/3 = b

Hence, the y-intercept is -50/3

Now plug in all the values to get the total equation...

The final equation : y = 13x/3 - 50/3

... y = 13x - 50 / 3

Hope my answer helps!!
