translate, call the number, n

Eight more than (8+) twice a number increased by 3 (2(n+3)) is equal to (=) 79 (79)


8+2(n+3)=79

minus 8 both sides

2(n+3)=71

divide both sides by 2

n+3=35.5

minus 3 both sides

n=32.5

the number is 32.5

This problem can be interpreted different ways.

Here's how I interpret it:

Eight more than twice a number, increased by 3, is equal to 79. Find the number

Let n = the number

"Eight more": + 8

"Eight more than twice a number": 2n + 8

"Eight more than twice a number increased by 3": 2n + 8 + 3

"Eight more than twice a number increased by 3 is equal to 79.":

2n + 8 + 3 = 79

Now we solve the equation for n.

2n + 8 + 3 = 79

2n + 11 = 79

2n = 68

n = 34

The number is 34.

In an arithmetic series a1= -14 and a5=30 find the sum of the first 5 terms
Oxana [17]

The sum of the 5 terms in the arithmetic series is 40.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1;  First we need to determine the three values between a1= -14 and a5=30. The difference between the first and fifth value = 30 - (-14) = 30 + 14 = 44.

Since there are 4 values after a1 we divide the difference by the number of terms, the difference between each term = 44 / 4 = 11. So the difference between each term is 11.

Step 2; To find out the terms we just add the difference to the previous number.

a1 = -14.

a2 = -14 + 11 = -3.

a3 = -3 + 11 = 8.

a4 = 8 + 11 = 19.

a5 = 19 + 11 = 30.

So a1 + a2 + a3 + a4 + a5 = -14 -3 + 8 + 19 + 30 = 40.

We are asked in the problem to determine the value of x in the equation <span>4x² + 2x = 7 using completing the square method. in this case,

</span><span>4x² + 2x = 7 
x2 + 0.5 = 1.75
(x + 0.25)^2 - 0.0625 = 1.75
</span>(x + 0.25)^2 = 1.8125
<span>x+0.25=1.3462
</span>x1 =1.0963
