Answer:

No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distributive property on the first side of the equation by multiplying 2 to all the terms in the parentheses

2x + 2 = 2x + 5

Subtract 2x from both sides

2 = 5

2 ≠ 5

This is not a true statement so there are no solutions

Answer:

No solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x+1)=2x+5

Expand the parentheses:

2x+2=2x+5

Subtract 2x from both sides:

2=5

Since this is not true, this equation has no solutions. Hope this helps!

Suppose 80% of people enjoy swimming. Suppose 70% of people enjoy running.

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

95%

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we can apply a formula that tells us that:

# (AUB) = #A + #B - #AnB

Where A would be the ones who enjoy swimming and B would be the ones who enjoy running. AnB is the intersection of both sets, that is, those who enjoy doing both things, these values we have, if we replace them we have left:

#(AUB) = 80% + 70% - 55%

#(AUB) = 95%

Which means that 95% of people enjoy either swimming or running

What is the value of the 9th term in the following geometric sequence?

earnstyle [38]

Answer: The correct option is (D) 196608.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find the value of the 9th term in the following geometric sequence :

3, 12, 48, 192, . . .

We know that

the n-th term of a geometric sequence with first term a and common ratio r is given by

$a_n=ar^{n-1}.$

For the given sequence, we have

first term, a = 3 and the common ratio, r is given by

$r=\dfrac{12}{3}=\dfrac{48}{12}=\dfrac{192}{48}=~~.~~.~~.~~=4.$

Therefore, the 9th term of the given sequence will be

$a_9=ar^{9-1}=3\times 4^8=3\times65536=196608.$

Thus, the required 9th term of the given sequence is 196608.

Option (D) is CORRECT.
