X= a number

(2x+4)/3 + (x+2)= 20
Multiply everything by 3 to eliminate the fraction
(3/1)((2x+4)/3) + (3)(x+2)= (3)(20)
2x+4+3x+6= 60
5x+10=60
Subtract 10 from both sides
5x=50
divide both sides by 5
x=10

Check:
Substitute answer in original equation
(2x+4)/3 + (x+2)= 20
(2(10)+4)/3+(10+2)= 20
(20+4)/3+12= 20
24/3+12= 20
8+12= 20
20=20

Hope this helps! :)

What is the solution set of {x | x < 2} {x | x ≥ 2}? all numbers less than -5 and greater than 5 the empty set the numbers be
juin [17]

Answer:

The solution set is the empty set.

Step-by-step explanation:

{x | x < 2} is the set of all numbers less than 2. This means x can take values such as 1.99, 0, -2000 and so on. That is, all values less than 2.

{x | x ≥ 2} is the set of all numbers equal to or greater than 2. This means x can take values such as 2, 2.1, 5000, and so on. That is, 2 or any value greater than 2.

Since there is no sign between the two sets, the question is asking for the intersection between these two sets. That is, what elements are common to these two sets? As we can see, the two sets don't have any common element. Hence, their intersection is the empty set.

(Note that the union of these two sets would be the set of all real numbers as that includes all elements from either set).

Lim n→∞[(n + n² + n³ + .... nⁿ)/(1ⁿ + 2ⁿ + 3ⁿ +....nⁿ)]​
Schach [20]

Step-by-step explanation:

\large\underline{\sf{Solution-}}

Given expression is

\rm :\longmapsto\:\displaystyle\lim_{n \to \infty}  \frac{n +  {n}^{2}  +  {n}^{3}  +  -  -  +  {n}^{n} }{ {1}^{n} +  {2}^{n} +  {3}^{n}  +  -  -  +  {n}^{n} }

To, evaluate this limit, let we simplify numerator and denominator individually.

So, Consider Numerator

\rm :\longmapsto\:n +  {n}^{2} +  {n}^{3}  +  -  -  -  +  {n}^{n}

Clearly, if forms a Geometric progression with first term n and common ratio n respectively.

So, using Sum of n terms of GP, we get

\rm \:  =  \: \dfrac{n( {n}^{n}  - 1)}{n - 1}

\rm \:  =  \: \dfrac{ {n}^{n}  - 1}{1 -  \dfrac{1}{n} }

Now, Consider Denominator, we have

\rm :\longmapsto\: {1}^{n} +  {2}^{n} +  {3}^{n}  +  -  -  -  +  {n}^{n}

can be rewritten as

\rm :\longmapsto\: {1}^{n} +  {2}^{n} +  {3}^{n}  +  -  -  -  +  {(n - 1)}^{n} +   {n}^{n}

\rm \:  =  \:  {n}^{n}\bigg[1 +\bigg[{\dfrac{n - 1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + \bigg[{\dfrac{n - 2}{n}\bigg]}^{n} +  -  -  -  + \bigg[{\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} \bigg]

\rm \:  =  \:  {n}^{n}\bigg[1 +\bigg[1 - {\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + \bigg[1 - {\dfrac{2}{n}\bigg]}^{n} +  -  -  -  + \bigg[{\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} \bigg]

Now, Consider

\rm :\longmapsto\:\displaystyle\lim_{n \to \infty}  \frac{n +  {n}^{2}  +  {n}^{3}  +  -  -  +  {n}^{n} }{ {1}^{n} +  {2}^{n} +  {3}^{n}  +  -  -  +  {n}^{n} }

So, on substituting the values evaluated above, we get

\rm \:  =  \: \displaystyle\lim_{n \to \infty}  \frac{\dfrac{ {n}^{n}  - 1}{1 -  \dfrac{1}{n} }}{{n}^{n}\bigg[1 +\bigg[1 - {\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + \bigg[1 - {\dfrac{2}{n}\bigg]}^{n} +  -  -  -  + \bigg[{\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} \bigg]}

\rm \:  =  \: \displaystyle\lim_{n \to \infty}  \frac{ {n}^{n}  - 1}{{n}^{n}\bigg[1 +\bigg[1 - {\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + \bigg[1 - {\dfrac{2}{n}\bigg]}^{n} +  -  -  -  + \bigg[{\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} \bigg]}

\rm \:  =  \: \displaystyle\lim_{n \to \infty}  \frac{ {n}^{n}\bigg[1 - \dfrac{1}{ {n}^{n} } \bigg]}{{n}^{n}\bigg[1 +\bigg[1 - {\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + \bigg[1 - {\dfrac{2}{n}\bigg]}^{n} +  -  -  -  + \bigg[{\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} \bigg]}

\rm \:  =  \: \displaystyle\lim_{n \to \infty}  \frac{\bigg[1 - \dfrac{1}{ {n}^{n} } \bigg]}{\bigg[1 +\bigg[1 - {\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + \bigg[1 - {\dfrac{2}{n}\bigg]}^{n} +  -  -  -  + \bigg[{\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} \bigg]}

\rm \:  =  \: \displaystyle\lim_{n \to \infty}  \frac{1}{\bigg[1 +\bigg[1 - {\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + \bigg[1 - {\dfrac{2}{n}\bigg]}^{n} +  -  -  -  + \bigg[{\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} \bigg]}

Now, we know that,

\red{\rm :\longmapsto\:\boxed{\tt{ \displaystyle\lim_{x \to \infty} \bigg[1 + \dfrac{k}{x} \bigg]^{x}  =  {e}^{k}}}}

So, using this, we get

\rm \:  =  \: \dfrac{1}{1 +  {e}^{ - 1}  + {e}^{ - 2} +  -  -  -  -  \infty }

Now, in denominator, its an infinite GP series with common ratio 1/e ( < 1 ) and first term 1, so using sum to infinite GP series, we have

\rm \:  =  \: \dfrac{1}{\dfrac{1}{1 - \dfrac{1}{e} } }

\rm \:  =  \: \dfrac{1}{\dfrac{1}{ \dfrac{e - 1}{e} } }

\rm \:  =  \: \dfrac{1}{\dfrac{e}{e - 1} }

\rm \:  =  \: \dfrac{e - 1}{e}

\rm \:  =  \: 1 - \dfrac{1}{e}

Hence,

\boxed{\tt{ \displaystyle\lim_{n \to \infty}  \frac{n +  {n}^{2}  +  {n}^{3}  +  -  -  +  {n}^{n} }{ {1}^{n} +  {2}^{n} +  {3}^{n}  +  -  -  +  {n}^{n} } =  \frac{e - 1}{e} = 1 -  \frac{1}{e}}}
