Answer:
The number is -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Write an equation
2x+4=-10
add 4 on both sides
2x=-6
divide 2 on both sides to isolate variable
x=-3
Answer:
h(3) = - 140
Step-by-step explanation:
Generate the terms in the sequence by substituting n = 2 and 3 into h(n)
h(2) = h(2 - 1) × 2 = h(1) × 2 = - 35 × 2 = - 70
h(3) = h(3 - 1) × 2 = h(2) × 2 = - 70 × 2 = - 140
We can distribute
2(5)+2(-x)=10-2x
we get
8+10-2x=?
18-2x=?
whatever that ? is, we don't know
multiply both sides by -1
2x-18=-?
add 18 to both sides
2x=18-?
divide bth sides by 2
x=9-(?/2)
whatever the left side it, just divide it by 2 and subtract it from 9
