2x-4(x+1)=-13
1) we solve this equation:
2x-4(x+1)=-12
2x-4x-4=-12
-2x=-12+4
-2x=-8
x=-8/-2
x=4
2) we evalute x²-1
x²-1=4²-1=16-1=15
Answer: 15
Hey there!
To start, the mean of the answer is also known as the average value of a set of numbers. This is calculated by dividing the sum of the set by the total amount of numbers.
In this case the sum of all the numbers is 13 + 6 + 8 + 6 + 15 which is equal to 48.
Now, divide 48 by the total number of numbers in the set: 48/5 = 9.6
Your final answer should be 9.6, or you can leave it in fraction form as 48/5.
Hope this helps!
