Answer:
a=6
Step-by-step explanation:
distribute:
3a-15-6=-15
combine like terms:
3a-21=-15
add 21 to each side:
3a=6
divide by 3:
a=2
Answer:
Choice 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
f(g(x))
Replace g(x) with x^2+8 since g(x)=x^2+8.
f(g(x))
f(x^2+8)
Replace old input,x, in f with new input, (x^2+8).
f(g(x))
f(x^2+8)
2(x^2+8)+5
Distribute:
f(g(x))
f(x^2+8)
2(x^2+8)+5
2x^2+16+5
Combine like terms:
f(g(x))
f(x^2+8)
2(x^2+8)+5
2x^2+16+5
2x^2+21
Answer:
7/8 and 5/6 are not equivalent
Step-by-step explanation:
Fractions are equivalent when you put them into your calculator and it gives the same number.
7 ÷ 8 = 0.875
5 ÷ 6 = 0.8333...
Since 0.875 ≠ 0.8333, 7/8 and 5/6 are not equivalent.
If you test for the other pairs, they will have the same decimal.
1/9 = 2/18 = 0.111...
3/16 = 9/48 = 0.1875
6/15 = 4/10 = 0.4
