We have an equation with parentheses. To make our lives easier, first get rid of the parentheses. We do this by using the distributive property.
It is used like this: a(b + c) = ab + ac.
Use the distributive property on the left-hand side.
3(x - 1) = 6
3x - 3 = 6
Now we have an equation that is easier.
The x variable is being multiplied by 3 and added to -3.
Reverse all of these operations with their inverse operation.
3x - 3 = 6
3x = 9 <--- I got rid of the -3 term by using the inverse of subtraction. Addition.
And I did the same for both sides to keep the equation true.
x = 3 <--- The inverse of multiplication is division.
So, I divided both sides by 3.
So, x is equal to 3.
The mean is 21. The median is 15. The mode is 15. The range is 16.
Answer:
n = 0, n =2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
(n + 1) + 3(n - 1) = 2(n - 1)(n + 1) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides
n + 1 + 3n - 3 = 2(n² - 1), that is
4n - 2 = 2n² - 2 ( subtract 4n - 2 from both sides )
0 = 2n² - 4n ← factor out 2n from each term )
0 = 2n(n - 2)
Equate each factor to zero and solve for n
2n = 0 ⇒ n = 0
n - 2 = 0 ⇒ n = 2
The answer is b
i think , im not sure
Answer:
X = > 12 because 15 - 3 = 12 and if X was more than 12 it would be wrong.
