Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(x-4)+1=7

First Distribute the -2.

-2x+8+1=7

Subtract the 8 and 1 from the whole equation.

-2x=-2

Divide both sides of the equation by -2.

x=1

I hope this helps!

Simplify each exponential expression using the properties of exponents and match it to the correct answer.
saveliy_v [14]

1) (2\times3^-2)^3 (5\times3^2)^2 / (3^-2)(5\times2)^2 = 2

2) (3^3) (4^0)^2 (3\times2)^-3 (2^2) = 1/2

3) (3^7\times4^7) (2\times5)^-3 (5)^2 / (12^7) (5^-1) (2^-4) = 2

4) (2.3)^-1 (2^0) / (2.3)^-1 = 1

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

Step 1 :

(2\times3^-2)^3 (5\times3^2)^2 / (3^-2)(5\times2)^2

⇒ (2^3) (3^-6) (5^2) (3^4) / (3^-2) (10^2)

⇒ (2.2^2.5^2) (3^-6.3^4) / (3^-2) (10^2)

⇒ (2)(10^2) (3^-2) / (3^-2) (10^2)

⇒ 2

Step 2 :

(3^3) (4^0)^2 (3\times2)^-3 (2^2)

Any number with power 'zero' is 1.

⇒ (3^3) (1^2) (3^-3) (2^-3) (2^2)

⇒ (2^(-3+2))

⇒ 2^-1 = 1/2

Step 3 :

(3^7\times4^7) (2\times5)^-3 (5)^2 / (12^7) (5^-1) (2^-4)

⇒ (12^7) (2^-3) (5^-3) (5^2) / (12^7) (5^-1) (2^-4)

⇒ (12^7) (2^-3) (5^-3) (5^2) / (12^7) (5^-1) (2^-4)

⇒ (2^-3) (5^(-3+2)) / (5^-1) (2^-4)

⇒ (2^-3) (5^-1) / (5^-1) (2^-4)

⇒ 1 / (2^-1)

⇒ 2

Step 4 :

(2.3)^-1 (2^0) / (2.3)^-1

⇒ (2^0)

⇒ Any number with power 'zero' is 1

⇒ 1

Solve −4(x + 10) − 6 = −3(x − 2). (1 point)
AURORKA [14]

Hey there!!

Given equation :

... -4 ( x + 10 ) - 6 = -3 ( x - 2 )

Using the distributive property :

... -4x - 40 - 6 = -3x + 6

Combining like terms :

... -4x - 46 = -3x + 6

Adding 46 on both sides :

... -4x = -3x + 52

Adding 3x on both sides :

... -x = 52

... x = -52

Hope helps!

Sammie read at the rate of 25 pages per hour. Alex read at the rate of 1/2 of a pages per minute. Who was reading faster? By how
exis [7]

Answer:

Alex is reading faster by 5 more pages per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Alex's rate of reading is 1/2 pages per minute, or 1 page every 2 minutes. To convert his rate to pages per hour, we can divide 60 (minutes in an hour) by 2 (minutes it takes Alex to read a page) which is equal to 30 (pages read in an hour). Therefore, Alex is reading at 30 pages an hour and reading 5 more pages an hour than Sammie.
