Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
-3x - 6 = 8x + 16
8x - 3x = 16 - 6 (subtract like terms)
5x = 10 (divide by 5)
x = 2
I actually posted this a while ago and it got answerd by a smart person so here's what I understood
the error is that it assumes that √(x²)=x
because if x is negative, it becomes positive
that's how the 2nd line is wrong
the 2nd line is the first wrong step
it goes from 4-9/2+9/2
so it goes from 4-4.5+4.5
notice the part under the parenthsees
√((4-4.5)²)
if we evaluate 4-4.5, we get -0.5
but by squaring it we get 0.5
-0.5+4.5=4, yes
but when we square it we get
0.5+4.5=5, that is how it works
Answer:
LCD = 270
Equivalent Fractions with the LCD
1/6 = 45/270
13/27 = 130/270
4/5 = 216/270
3/10 = 81/270
2/5 = 108/270
Answer:
<u><em>Answer is below</em></u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>10=3x-8</em></u>
<u><em>always remember to flip the equation</em></u>
<u><em>3x-8=10</em></u>
<u><em>Add 8 to both sides</em></u>
<u><em>3x-8(+8)=10(+8)</em></u>
<u><em>3x=18</em></u>
<u><em>Divide both sides by 3</em></u>
<u><em>3x/3=18/3</em></u>
<u><em>x=6</em></u>
If we write y=f(x)=(x-h)²+k, then y-k=(x-h)². This is vertex form where the vertex is (h,k)=(3,3) so h and k are both 3. We can see this if we put x=3 in the shifted function. This is a minimum point for the function because for every other x f(x) is greater then 3. The minimum point is the vertex.
