You have used the Distributive Property to transform numerical expressions such as (5)(3) + (2)(3) to (5 + 2)(3). How would you

transform 5x + 2x into a single term? Substitute five different values into the expressions 5x + 2x and 7x - 1. What do you notice about the values of the expressions? Is there any value that would make the two expressions equal? Why or why not?

5x + 2x.....combine like terms..... = 7x

5x + 2x....subbing in 1                               7x - 1....subbing in 1
5(1) + 2(1) = 5 + 2 = 7                               7(1) - 1 = 7 - 1 = 6

5x + 2x...subbing in 2                                 7x - 1...subbing in 2
5(2) + 2(2) = 10 + 4 = 14                            7(2) - 1 = 14 - 1 = 13

5x + 2x...subbing in 3                                 7x - 1...subbing in 3
5(3) + 2(3) = 15 + 6 = 21                            7(3) - 1 = 21 - 1 = 20

5x + 2x...subbing in 4                                 7x - 1....subbing in 4
5(4) + 2(4) = 20 + 8 = 28                            7(4) - 1 = 28 - 1 = 27

5x + 2x...subbing in 5                                 7x - 1...subbing in 5
5(5) + 2(5) = 25 + 10 = 35                          7(5) - 1 = 35 - 1 = 34


5x + 2x result values are 1 more then 7x - 1 result values
there are no values that will make the 2 expressions equal....
because 5x + 2x = 7x......and the other one is 7x - 1......so the 7x - 1 values will always be 1 number less...because ur subtracting one

Find the x-coordinates where f ' (x)=0 for f(x)=2x+sin(4x) in the interval [0, pi]
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

The x-coordinate is \dfrac{\pi}{6}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a function f(x) as:

f(x)=2x+\sin (4x)

Now on differentiating both side with respect to x we get that:

f'(x)=2+4 \cos (4x)

When f'(x)=0

this means that 2+4\cos (4x)=0\\\\4\cos (4x)=-2\\\\\cos(4x)=\dfrac{-1}{2}

Hence, cosine function takes the negative value in second and third quadrant but we have to only find the value in the interval [0,\pi].

also we know that \cos (\dfrac{2\pi}{3})=\dfrac{-1}{2}----(1) (which lie in the second quadrant)

so on comparing our equation with equation (1) we obtain:

4x=\dfrac{2\pi}{3}\\\\x=\dfrac{\pi}{6}

Hence, the x-coordinates where f'(x)=0 for f(x)=2x+\sin(4x) is \dfrac{\pi}{6}.

Solve log x - 2 = 3<br> A. 1<br> B. 100,000<br> C. 10,000<br> D. 10
ahrayia [7]

Answer: 100,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

logx - 2 = 3

add 2 to both sides

log x = 5

Therefore :

x = 10^{5}

x = 100,000

Subtract and reduce to lowest terms: 4 1/7 - 2 4/7
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Both terms have the same denominator, 7.  So combining them is relatively easy.  Rewrite 2 4/7 as 18/7 and then subtract 18/7 from 1/7:

1/7 - 18/7 = -17/7

Choose Answer 4:  None of these are correct.
