Answer:

Subtract 2 from both sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember to do the opposite of PEMDAS. PEMDAS is the order of operation, and stands for:

Parenthesis

Exponents (& Roots)

Multiplication

Division

Addition

Subtraction

> Also, note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other side of the equation.

First step is to subtract 2 from both sides of the equation:

3x + 2 (-2) = 29 (-2)

3x = 29 - 2

3x = 27

The second step is to divide 3 from both sides of the equation:

(3x)/3 = (27)/3

x = 27/3

x = 9

Answer:

The first step is subtracting the two on both sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

You arent exactly following PEMDAS in this equation, but you are still in a way. Before going on to x you need to go on to the numbers first. 3x would be equal to 27.

In 1990 the average family income was about $ 39 , 000 , and in 2010 it was about $ 70 , 768 . Let x = 0 represent 1990, x = 1 r

iren2701 [21]

Answer:

 $f(x) = 1588.4x + 39000$ 

$f(15) = 62826$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

In 1990; Income= $39000

In 2010; Income= $70768

Solving (a): An equation in form of f(x) = ax + b

First, we need to determine the slope, a

$a = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

Taking y as income and x as year index.

When x = 0; y = 39000

When x = 20; y = 70768

Substitute these values in the above formula

$a = \frac{70768 - 39000}{20 - 0}$

$a = \frac{31768}{20}$

$a = 1588.4$

Next, is to determine the formula using:

$y - y_1 = a(x - x_1)$

Considering :When x = 0; y = 39000, we have

 $y - 39000 = 1588.4(x - 0)$ 

 $y - 39000 = 1588.4x$ 

Make y the subject of formula

 $y = 1588.4x + 39000$ 

Express y as a function of x

 $f(x) = 1588.4x + 39000$ 

Solving (b): Income in 2005

In 2005, x = 15

So:

$f(x) = 1588.4x + 39000$ becomes

$f(15) = 1588.4 * 15 + 39000$

$f(15) = 62826$

Find the value of x and y

velikii [3]

Answer:

2x + 20 = 3x-10

2x -3x = -20-10

-x = -30

x= 30

Checking part:

2x+20 = 2(30) +20 = 60+20 = 80

3x-10 = 3(30) - 10 = 90-10 = 80

Hence, the final answer is x = 30.
