Answer:

The answer will be listed below.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, you want x to by itself, so distribute the three to both x and negative 4 so you'll get 3x-12=2x+6.

Now, subtract 2x from both sides and add 12 to both sides and you'll get an answer of x=19. From that, you are able conclude that this equation has one solution.

If f(x)=(1/8)(8^x) what is f(3)? A. 1/512 B. 1/64 C. 512 D. 64

Hi there!

Let's solve this problem step by step!
$f(x) = \frac{1}{8} (8 {}^{x})$

To find f(3) we must substitute x = 3 into the formula.
$f(3) = \frac{1}{8} (8 {}^{3} )$

Now we use PEMDAS (Parenthesis, exponents, multiply, divide, add, subtract) to find our answer.

Work out the exponents inside the parenthesis first.
$f(3) = \frac{1}{8} \times 512$

And finally multiply.
$f(3) = \frac{1}{8} \times \frac{512}{1} = \frac{512}{8} = 64$

Hence, the answer is D. 64.
~ Hope this helps you!

Fill in the gaps in this sequence: -8, -19, -30, _ , _. (Geometric and arithmetic sequences)

gavmur [86]

-8, -19, -30, -49 , -60

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have the following sequence :

-8, -19, -30, _ , _

First term of sequence is -8 .
Second term of sequence is -19 : $-8-11 = -19$
Third term of sequence is -30 : $-19-11 = -30$
Fourth term of sequence is : $-30-11 = -49$
Fifth term of sequence is : $-49-11 = -60$

Following sequence was an AP( Arithmetic Progression ) with first term as -8 i.e. $a = -8$ and common difference $d = -11$ having general equation as : $-8 -11n$ .
