Find the sum of (x + 5) and (2x + 3)

1 answer:

7 0

What you can do is subtract 1x from each side
Then you subtract 3 from each side
Then it tells you x=2
Always put what you think x is back into the problem and see if it works out

Example on how you do it:
(x+5)=(2x+3)
5=(x+3)
2=x

G=x-c/x. for x<br><br>how do yoy make this an equation for x? help

zzz [600]

1.
$\displaystyle \text{if }\quad G=x- \frac{C}{x} \\\\$

$x \neq 0$

Multiply both sides by x:

$\displaystyle Gx=x\bigg(x- \frac{C}{x}\bigg )\\\\Gx=x^2-C$

Subtract from both sides Gx:
$Gx-Gx=x^2-C-Gx\\x^2-Gx-C=0$

Then solve this equation:

$\displaystyle x^2-Gx-C=0\\\\x_{1,2}= \frac{G\pm \sqrt{G^2+4C} }{2}$

2.
$\displaystyle\text{if}\quad G= \frac{x-C}{x}$

$x \neq 0$

Multiply both sides by x:

$Gx=x-C$

Subtract from both sides Gx:

$x-C-Gx=0$

Then solve this equation:

$\displaystyle x-Gx-C=0\\x(1-G)=C\\x= \frac{C}{1-G}$

What is the next fraction in this sequence? Simplify your answer. 3/4, 1/4, 1/12, 1/36

antiseptic1488 [7]

Hey their,

3/4
1/4
1/12
1/36
0/60

The pattern is -1/x every 2 +x/8

How i got this was 36/12=3
3*12=36
so 60-36=24
24x3/2+24=60
then 60/5=12

Hopethis helped

If a certain number of Grade IV students share 28 or 39 skill books in Mathematics,there are remainders of 4 and 3 books. What i

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

12 students

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Below numbers are divisible by the number of students:</u>

28 - 4 = 24
39 - 3 = 36

24 = 2*2*2*3
36 = 2*2*3*3
GCF(24,36) = 2*2*3 = 12

The largest possible number of students is 12
