Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

First translate the image into an equation using the key. Once you do that, your equation should look like this:

(x + x + x) + (-1 + -1 + -1 + -1 + -1) = (-x + -x) + (1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1)

________________________________

3x - 5 = -2x + 5

(given)

________________________________

3x - 5 = -2x + 5

+5. +5

(addition property of equality)

*cancel out -5 on the left hand side, and isolate it from x by adding +5 on each side*

__________________________

3x = -2x + 10

+2x +2x

(addition property of equality)

*cancel out the negative 2x, and isolate it from the constant term on the right hand side by adding 2x on both sides*

________________________________

5x = 10

÷5. ÷5

(division property of equality)

*divide by 5(GCF) on both sides to isolate

x by itself*

________________________________

x = 2

________________________________

If you want to test this solution, substitute this back into the equation.

x = 2 → 3x - 5 = -2x + 5. 3(2) - 5 = -2(2) + 5 = 6 - 5 = -4 + 5 = 1 = 1

I honestly believe that not everyone uses their phones during meetings or classes unless they are bored or simply searching for more information on the topic. These days cell phone devices are used by teachers and those conducting meetings. I've even seen preacher's pull up the Bible from their phones. So if fewer than 44 people use them that's actually good.

Which expression is equivalent to 144 Superscript three-halves? 216 1,728 RootIndex 3 StartRoot 12 EndRoot RootIndex 3 StartRoot

Question:

Which expression is equivalent to 144^(3/2)

Answer:

1728

Step-by-step explanation:

The options are not well presented. However, this is the solution to the question.

Given:

144^(3/2)

Required:

Find Equivalent.

We start my making use of the following law of logarithm.

A^(m/n) = (A^m)^1/n

So,

144^(3/2) = (144³)^½

Another law of indices is that

A^½ = √A

So,

144^(3/2) = (144³)^½ = √(144³)

144³ can be expanded as 144 * 144 * 144.

This gives

144^(3/2) = √(144 * 144 * 144)

The square root can then be splitted to

144^(3/2) = √144 * √144 * √144

144^(3/2) = 12 * 12 * 12

144^(3/2) = 1728.

Hence, the equivalent of 144^(3/2) is 1728
