Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 3 = -5 (Given)

2x - 3 + 3 = -5 + 3 (Addition Property of Equality)

2x = -2 (Simplify)

\frac{2}{2} = \frac{-2}{2} (Division Property of Equality)

x = -1 (Simplify)

A number is doubled and then 1 is added to it. The answer is divided by 5 and then increased by 16. The final result is 18.
ipn [44]
<h2>A.</h2>

So let's break down this sentence (Let n = unknown number):

  • "A number is doubled and then 1 is added to it"; Remember that double means multiplied by 2. With this sentence, we can determine that "2n + 1" is a part of the equation.
  • "The answer is divided by 5, and then increased by 16"; The "answer" they refer to is "2n + 1" from the prior sentence. Since this is divided by 5 and <em>then</em> added by 16, we can determine that \frac{2n+1}{5}+16 is a part of our equation.
  • "The final result is 18"; This means that the prior part of the equation is equal (=) to 18. <u>With this info, our full equation is \frac{2n+1}{5}+16=18</u>
<h2>B.</h2>

Now, let's solve our prior equation found in A. To solve for the unknown number, n, we need to isolate the variable onto 1 side of the equation. Firstly subtract both sides by 16 to cancel out the + 16 on the left side:

\frac{2n+1}{5}=2

Next, multiply both sides by 5 to cancel out the division on the left side:

2n+1=10

Next, subtract both sides by 1 to cancel out the + 1:

2n=9

Lastly, divide both sides by 2 to cancel out the multiplication:

n=\frac{9}{2}\ \textsf{OR}\ 4.5

<u>In short, the number is 9/2 or 4.5.</u>

\boxed{ \rm{ \pink{ \displaystyle \: QUESTION....}}}
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

\pink{ \rm{SOLUTION:-}}

\pink{ \rm{Here,}}

\boxed{162} can be a perfect square if the factor \boxed{2} is a paired.

Hence,\boxed{162×2},will be a perfect square.

: \implies{324 =  {3}^{2}  \times  {3}^{2} \times  {2}^{2}  }

Hence,the square root is 3×3×2,i.e. 18

{\rm{162 \: must \: be \: multiplied \: by \: 2 \: to \: make \: it \: a \: perfect \: square.}}

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

ascending order:11,12,13,15,15,16,16,20,21,23,29,30,30

number of terms =13

median=[(n+1)/2] th term

=[(13+1)/2] th term

=[14/2] th tem

=7th term

=16

Carlos and Sophie, factored the trinomial –4x2 − 10x + 6. Sophie factored it as –2(2x − 1)(x + 3) and Carlos factored it as (x +
nydimaria [60]
Sophie factored it completely while Carlos did not.

Complete factoring is achieved when all factors other than monomial factors are prime factors. Carlos' (4x + 2) can still be factored into 2(x+1).
