Answer:

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

(3x-6)=18

Add 6 to each side

(3x-6+6)=18+6

3x= 24

Divide by 3

3x/3 = 24/3

x = 8

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

What we do to one side of the equation we have to do to the other side.

3x - 6 = 18

Add 6 to both sides

3x = 24

Divide both sides by 3

x = 8

The answer is 8

Hope this helps!

The graph of f(x) = 2x + 1 is shown below. Explain how to find the average rate of change between x = 0 and x = 2.

maksim [4K]

The last description actually clarifies the given equation. The equation should be written as: f(x) = 2ˣ +1. The x should be in the exponent's place.

The average rate of change, in other words, is the slope of the curve at certain points. In equation, the slope is equal to Δy/Δx. It means that the slope is the change in the y coordinates over the change in the x coordinate. So, we know the denominator to be: 2-0 = 2. To determine the numerator, we substitute x=0 and x=2 to the original equation to obtain their respective y-coordinate pairs.

f(0)= 2⁰+1 = 2
f(2) = 2² + 1 = 5

So, the slope is equal to:

Average rate of change = (5 - 2)/(2 - 0)
Average rate of change = 3/2 or 1.5

The simplified expression of $$4 x \cdot \frac{1}{x^{-5}} \cdot x^{-3}$ is $4x^3$ .

Solution:

Given expression is $4 x \cdot \frac{1}{x^{-5}} \cdot x^{-3}$ .

To simplify the given expression.

$$\Rightarrow4 x \cdot \frac{1}{x^{-5}} \cdot x^{-3}$

Using exponent rule: $\frac{1}{a^{-m}}=a^m$

$$\Rightarrow4x \cdot x^{5}.x^{-3}$

Using another exponent rule: $a^m \cdot a^n=a^{m+n}$

$$\Rightarrow4x \cdot x^{5-3}$

$$\Rightarrow4x \cdot x^{2}$

Using exponent rule: $a^m \cdot a^n=a^{m+n}$

$$\Rightarrow4x^{1+2}$

$$\Rightarrow4x^3$

Hence the simplified expression of $$4 x \cdot \frac{1}{x^{-5}} \cdot x^{-3}$ is $4x^3$ .

Two or more complete sentences, explain how to use ordered pairs of points in f(x) and g(x) to determine if f(x) and g(x) are in

kati45 [8]

If f(x) is an inverse of g(x),

when
f(x)=y
g(y)=x

aka
f(g(x))=x
g(f(x))=x

basically, the values should be swiched

example
f(x)=
(1,2)
(2,3)
(4,5)
then g(x)=
(2,1)
(3,2)
(5,4)

7x-11=5(x-2)+2x-1= ?

yan [13]

0 = 0

Simplifying
7x + -11 = 5(x + -2) + 2x + -1

Reorder the terms:
-11 + 7x = 5(x + -2) + 2x + -1

Reorder the terms:
-11 + 7x = 5(-2 + x) + 2x + -1
-11 + 7x = (-2 * 5 + x * 5) + 2x + -1
-11 + 7x = (-10 + 5x) + 2x + -1

Reorder the terms:
-11 + 7x = -10 + -1 + 5x + 2x

Combine like terms: -10 + -1 = -11
-11 + 7x = -11 + 5x + 2x

Combine like terms: 5x + 2x = 7x
-11 + 7x = -11 + 7x

Add '11' to each side of the equation.
-11 + 11 + 7x = -11 + 11 + 7x

Combine like terms: -11 + 11 = 0
0 + 7x = -11 + 11 + 7x
7x = -11 + 11 + 7x

Combine like terms: -11 + 11 = 0
7x = 0 + 7x
7x = 7x

Add '-7x' to each side of the equation.
7x + -7x = 7x + -7x

Combine like terms: 7x + -7x = 0
0 = 7x + -7x

Combine like terms: 7x + -7x = 0
0 = 0

Solving
0 = 0
