Hey there!

DISTRIBUTE

3(–2x – 3) + 4x – 3 = 8

3(–2x) + 3(–3) + 4x – 3 = 8

COMBINE LIKE TERMS

–6x – 9 + 4x – 3 = 8

–2x – 12 = 8

ADD by 12 on BOTH SIDES

–2x – 12 + 12 = 8 + 12

CANCEL out: –12 + 12 because that gives 0

KEEP: 8 + 12 because it helps us solve for x

“8+ 12 = 20”

–2x = 20

DIVIDE by –2 on BOTH SIDES

–2x/–2 = 20/–2

CANCEL out: –2/–2 because that gives 1

KEEP: 20/–2 because that gives you x

“x = 20/–2”

Answer: x = –10 ☑️

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

Answer:

Both get the same results that is,

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}140\\160\\200\end{array}\right]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

\bf M=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}\frac{1}{5}&\frac{1}{5}&\frac{2}{5}\\\frac{2}{5}&\frac{2}{5}&\frac{1}{5}\\\frac{2}{5}&\frac{2}{5}&\frac{2}{5}\end{array}\right]

and initial population,

\bf P=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}130\\300\\70\end{array}\right]

a) - After two times, we will find in each position.

P_2=[P].[M]^2=[P].[M].[M]

M^2=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}\frac{1}{5}&\frac{1}{5}&\frac{2}{5}\\\frac{2}{5}&\frac{2}{5}&\frac{1}{5}\\\frac{2}{5}&\frac{2}{5}&\frac{2}{5}\end{array}\right]\times \left[\begin{array}{ccc}\frac{1}{5}&\frac{1}{5}&\frac{2}{5}\\\frac{2}{5}&\frac{2}{5}&\frac{1}{5}\\\frac{2}{5}&\frac{2}{5}&\frac{2}{5}\end{array}\right]

     =\frac{1}{25} \left[\begin{array}{ccc}7&7&7\\8&8&8\\10&10&10\end{array}\right]

\therefore\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;P_2=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}7&7&7\\8&8&8\\10&10&10\end{array}\right] \times\left[\begin{array}{ccc}130\\300\\70\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}140\\160\\200\end{array}\right]

b) - With in migration process, 500 people are numbered. There will be after a long time,

After\;inifinite\;period=[M]^n.[P]

Then,\;we\;get\;the\;same\;result\;if\;we\;measure [M]^n=\frac{1}{25} \left[\begin{array}{ccc}7&7&7\\8&8&8\\10&10&10\end{array}\right]

                                   =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}140\\160\\200\end{array}\right]
