x has to equal 1. 3/10 + 1/5 = 1/2
the equation is now 1/2 + x = 1 1/2x
x = 1
1 1/2 = 1 1/2
Answer:
x = 5.5
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
31 = x + 25.5
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Subtract 25.5 on both sides: 5.5 = x
- Rewrite: x = 5.5
Answer:
The zeros of f(x) are: (x - 1), (x - 3) and (x - 8)
<em></em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given


Required
Find all zeros of the f(x)
If
then:

And
is a factor
Divide f(x) by x - 8

Expand the numerator

Rewrite as:

Factorize

Expand

Factorize


Multiply both sides by x - 8

<em>Hence, the zeros of f(x) are: (x - 1), (x - 3) and (x - 8)</em>
3x < -6
x < -6/3
x < -2
Therefore, the solution set is {x | x < -2}.
