How to solve equation with variable on both sides

Mathematics

You combine like terms. You could subtract the positive term from both sides and divide to get the variable alone

You combine the like terms by canceling out one side of the equation for the number with no variable, and the one with the variable, but they must be on different sides.

Then, you get the variable by itself, by dividing (in this equation, sometimes you will multiply, if there is a fraction)<span>

Example:<span>

<em>4x - 1 = 2x + 7</em>
     </span><u>+ 1</u>         <u>+ 1
</u>
<em>4x = 2x + 8</em>
<u>- 2x</u>  <u>- 2x
</u><span><span>
<em>2x = 8</em></span></span>
<span><span>
<em>2x </em></span></span><u>/2</u> <em>= 8</em> <u>/2
</u>
<em>x = 4</em></span>

Which answer describes the type of sequence? 16, 12, 32, 92, ... neither arithmetic nor geometric geometric arithmetic
Elanso [62]

Answer:

neither arithmetic nor geometric

Step-by-step explanation:

16, 12, 32, 92, ...

For arithmetic , there should be a common difference

16, 12, 32, 92, ...

Lets find the difference of two consecutive terms

12-16 = -4

32 - 12 = 20

92 - 32 = 60

Common difference is not same so it is not arithmetic

For Geometric , there should be a common ratio

16, 12, 32, 92, ...

Lets find the ratio of two consecutive terms

\frac{12}{16} = \frac{3}{4}

\frac{32}{16} = 2

\frac{92}{32} = \frac{23}{8}

Common ratio is not same , so it is not Geometric

So answer is neither arithmetic nor geometric
