How maby solutions does this have 8 + 2 (x - 6 ) = -2 +2x - 2​

Answer:

This has infinite solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Key skills needed are: One variable equations, Algebra, Adding/Subtracting Like Terms </u>

1) We first start with the equation: 8 + 2 (x - 6 ) = -2 +2x - 2​

2) We first need to use distribution property for the parentheses.

We need to distribute the 2 to the x and the -6.

3) This would be 8 + 2x - 12 = -2 +2x - 2

4) The next thing to do is combine like terms.

Like terms are terms with the same variable, or no variable at all. <em>8 and 6 would be like terms</em>, and <em>2x and 4x would be like terms</em>. 2x^2 and 4x would not be like terms as one has x^2 and the other has only x.

3) Now you know what like terms are, you can implement this into the problem --> Combine the 8 and 12 on the left side  + Combine the -2 and -2 on the right side ----> 2x-4 = 2x-4

4) Since both sides have the <u>same exact thing (both sides have 2x-4)</u> this equation has infinite solutions.

<em>Hope you understood and have a nice day!! :D</em>

400=x times width

wait
SQUARE painting
legnth=width
width=x

400=x times x
400=x^2
sqrt both sides

Find the 13th term of the arithmetic sequence whose common difference is d=7 and whose first term is a1=-3
timama [110]

Answer:

81

Step-by-step explanation:

the formula for an arithmetic sequence:

aₙ = a₁ + (n-1)d

where aₙ = the nth term

a₁ = the 1st term = -3

n = the term number = 13

d = the common difference = 7

Plugging in those values into the formula to find a₁₃:

a₁₃ = -3 + (13-1)7

= -3 + (12)7

= -3 + 84

= 81
