Graph 2, Option 4 would be your answer because:
If you substitute 1 into the equation (x), you would get about 212
If you substitute 2, you would get approximately 225
If you substitute 10, you would get approximately 364.
Looking at the graph, your answer would be going up and to the right, the population is getting bigger while the years are increasing as well.
If we substitute 15 into x in the equation, we would get approximately 492.
I converted the four months into a fraction, and got 1/3. There's 12 months in a year, and divided by 4, I got 3.
The answer you are looking for is x=-2.
Solution/Explanation:
Writing out the equation
3[-x+(2x+1)]=x-1
Simplifying inside of the brackets first
Combining like terms, since -x+2x=x
3(x+1)=x-1
*You can remove the parenthesis, if preferred.
Using the Distributive Property on the left side of the equation
3x+3=x-1
Now, subtracting the "x" variable from both sides
3x+3-x=x-x-1
"x-x" cancels out to 0.
3x+3-x=-1
Combining like terms and simplifying
3x-x+3=-1
2x+3=-1
Subtracting 3 from both sides of the equation
2x+3-3=-1-3
"3-3" cancels out to zero.
2x+0=-1-3
2x=-1-3
Simplifying the right side of the equation
2x=-4
Finally, dividing both sides by 2
2x/2=-4/2
Simplifying the final part of the problem
Since 2x/2=x and -4/2=-2
x=-2
So, therefore, the final answer is x=-2.
Hope that this has helped you. Good day to you.
(3x+2)-(2x-2)
3x+2-2x-2
3x-2x=x
2-2+0
X
5.057 because 3.89 times 1.3 = 5.057
