Answer:  x = 2/5 in fraction form

In decimal form, the answer is x = 0.4

====================================================

Work Shown:

2/3 = two thirds

2/3 + (1/3)x = 2x  is the equation you're given

Multiply every term by 3 so that we clear out the fractions

3*(2/3) + 3*(1/3)x = 3*2x

2 + x = 6x

From here, we solve for x

2 + x = 6x

2+x-x = 6x-x .... subtract x from both sides

2 = 5x

5x = 2

5x/5 = 2/5 ... divide both sides by 5

x = 2/5

x = 0.4

3.) Find the domain and range for each of the following functions.
Delvig [45]
Domain is x’s and range is y’s.

For a, the domain is -2<=x<1
For a, the range is 1<=y<2

For b, the domain is 1<=x<=2
For b, the range is -2<=y<=2

(The <= is the ones with a line under, meaning equal to, if that makes sense. So write with a line under rather than equal sign)
Hope this helps!

Find three consecutive odd integers so that the sum of twice the first, the second
netineya [11]

Answer: 23, 25, 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 3 consecutive odd numbers be x, x+2 and x+4.

So

2x+(x+2)+3(x+4)=152

2x + x + 2 + 3x + 12 = 152

6x+14=152

6x = 152 - 14

x=138/6

x=23

So, the numbers are 23, 25 and 27.
