Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
first, we would set up an equation. let 3x-4 represent "four less than a number tripled". "a number" would be represented by x. let x+10 represent "the same number increased by 10".
set 3x-4 and x+10 equal to each other:
3x-4=x+10
next, we would solve this equation for x. first we would get the x together on one side of the equation. we would do this by subtracting x from both sides to remove it from the right side of the equation:
2x-4=10
then, we would get the 2x by itself. we would do this by adding 4 to both sides:
2x=14
finally, we would divide each side of the equation by 2 to find x:
x=7.
The number is 7.
The slope intercept form y=2x^2-x-13. Hope this helps :)
Okay. Basically, a is greater than or equal to 9.
First, you do distribute the 2.
8a+2-10a(< or =)20
Subtract two on both sides.
8a-10a(< or =)18
Then subtract 10a from 8a
-2a(< or =)18
Divide by two on both sides
and switch around the greater than sign since you divided by a <span>-2
</span>a(> or =)-9
<span>And if you check, -9 works, -8 works, and -10 doesn't work.</span>
