Answer:

<h2>\boxed{\bold{x \ = \ 2}}</h2>

Explanation:

3(x + 6) = 24

  • <em>Simplify both sides of the equation</em>

3(x + 6) = 24

(3)(x) + (3)(6) = 24 (Distribute)

3x + 18 = 24

  • <em>Subtract 18 from both sides</em>

3x + 18 − 18 = 24 − 18

3x = 6

  • <em>Divide both sides by 3</em>

3x / 3 = 6 / 3

  • \bold{x \ = \ 2}

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Remeber this rule: <u><em>PEMDAS</em></u>

Even though parantheses comes first, we must take away 3 By dividing (since 3 is currently multiplying with x+6). Picture it like a ‘tail,’ and you must take the tail away first. so it would look like this:

3 ÷ 3 (x+6) = 24÷3

3 ÷ 3 cancels out, and 24 ÷ 3 equals 8, so now your equation becomes:

x + 6 = 8

now, we subtract 6 (since it is adding with x)

x + 6 - 6 = 8 - 6

positive 6 and negative 6 (aka 6-6) cancel out, and 8 - 6 = 2, so x = 2

hAVE A WONDERFUL DAY!!!

if this helped you, please heart and rate :)

3n *power 2 +10n+7 how to factories and pls tell with solution
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

(n + 1)(3n + 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

3n² + 10n + 7

Consider the factors of the product of the n² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the n- term.

product = 3 × 7 = 21 and sum = + 10

The factors are + 3 and + 7

Use these factors to split the n- term

3n² + 3n + 7n + 7 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

3n(n + 1) + 7(n + 1) ← factor out (n + 1) from each term

= (n + 1)(3n + 7) ← in factored form
