Answer:

<h3>x = -2</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

3[-x + (2 x + 1)] = x -1\\\\\mathrm{Expand\:}3\left(-x+\left(2x+1\right)\right):\quad 3x+3\\3x+3=x-1\\

Collect like terms

3x -x =-1-3

Add similar elements

2x = -4\\\\\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}2\\\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{-4}{2}\\\\Simplify\\\\x = -2

Parking lot has 121 spots. Ratio of senior to junior is 7 to 4. How many spots go to each grade level?
Andrej [43]
I am going to build a chart this is best when using ratios 

              seniors    junior  total
                 7              4       
                 *?             *?     *?
    Totals                          121   

The way we fill out this chart is that we add the rows and multiply the columns. 

So we add 7 + 4 and fill it in our chart we get 11 

            seniors    junior  total
                 7              4       11
                 *?             *?     *?
    Totals                          121   

now to find the *? need to divide 121/11 to get *?

121/11 = 11

so now our chart looks like this 
            seniors    junior  total
                 7              4       11
                 11            11     11
    Totals                          121   

Now we multiply each column 

so
7 * 11  = 77
 4*11 = 44

now our chart look like this 

            seniors    junior  total
                 7              4       11
                 11            11     11
    Totals     77           44      121   

so seniors get 77 spaces 
and juniors get 44 spaces.

Which function forms a geometric sequence when x = 1, 2, 3, ...?
jeka94
The geometric sequence is found in the relationship between consecutive terms that is constant.
 In this problem, as I understand it, none of the functions forms a geometric sequence.
 The functions that form a geometric sequence have the form
 f (x) = h (a) ^ n where "a" is the constant relation between the successive terms.
 If you wrote the function "f (x) = - 2 (3/4) x", you wanted to write instead:
 f (x) = - 2 (3/4) ^ x
 So that would be the function that forms a geometric sequence, where the relation between the consecutive terms is 3/4.
 You can test it by dividing f (x) / f (x-1)
 Then you will see that the result of that division will be 3/4.
