Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing that I noticed was that all of the terms had a common factor of 
. You can therefore factor that out first:
Now, you have a quadratic equation inside the parentheses. Factoring, you find that the roots are -0.2 and 3, meaning that you can further factor this expression to be:

<span>1) 3x-2=x+10
</span><span>Now, lets solve this step-by-step.
</span><span>
3x - 2 = x + 10
-x -x
</span><span>
</span><span>3x - x = 2x 2x - 2 = 10
</span><span>
</span><span>2x - 2 = 10
</span>2x - 2+2 = 10+2 The inverse operation helps isolate the variable.
<span>
2x = 12
2x/2 = 12/2
x = 12/2
x = 6</span><span>
Answer: x = 6
2) x + 4 = 19 - 2x </span>
We can solve this much faster
x + 4 = 19 - 2x
+2x
x+2x = 3x
3x + 4 = 19
-4 -4
19-4 = 15
3x= 15
3x/3 = 15/3
x= 5
Answer: x = 5
3) <span>8x - 20 = x + 15
Much faster now!!
8x - 20 = x + 15
-x
8x-x = 7x
7x - 20 = 15
+20 +20
15+20 = 35
7x = 35
7x/7 = 35/7
x = 35/7
x = 5
Answer: x= 5</span>
A short way of writing really large numbers or really small numbers
Ex:
360,000,000 is written in scientific nation as.. 3.6 x 10^8
Answer:
An expansion is characterized by increasing employment, economic growth, and upward pressure on prices.
2.54(x) = cm in inches
2.54(12) = 30.48
12 inches = 30.48 cm
