Answer:
x=2
x=-5
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to get everything on one side to have a quadratic equation:
x^2+6x-4 -(3x+6) = x^2+3x-10
All factors of 10 are 1*10 and 2*5.
5-2 = 3 and 5*-2 = -10
Factoring x^2+3x-10 gives us (x-2)(x+5)
x=2
x=-5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
![(\frac{5}{2})^{x}+(\frac{5}{2})^{(x+3)}=(\frac{5}{2})^{x}+(\frac{5}{2})^{x}*(\frac{5}{2})^{3}\\\\=(\frac{5}{2})^{x}*[1+(\frac{5}{2})^{3}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%28%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B2%7D%29%5E%7Bx%7D%2B%28%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B2%7D%29%5E%7B%28x%2B3%29%7D%3D%28%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B2%7D%29%5E%7Bx%7D%2B%28%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B2%7D%29%5E%7Bx%7D%2A%28%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B2%7D%29%5E%7B3%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D%28%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B2%7D%29%5E%7Bx%7D%2A%5B1%2B%28%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B2%7D%29%5E%7B3%7D%5D)
Therefore,
Answer:
2 or 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Since I do not quite understand what you mean by X X, I could think of two answers. If you are doing 5 times X=20, then X = 4, but if you are trying to do 5 times x times x, then x=2.
8/5 = 20/x
8x = 20(5)
8x = 100
x = 12.5

The value of <em>d</em> is 7.5.
The key to solving equations is doing the inverse, or opposite, function/process.
For example, you subtract when d + 1 = 2:
d + 1 = 2
(d + 1) -1 = (2) - 1
d = 1
In the same way, you add values when you have a negative:
5.5 = -2 + d = d - 2
5.5 = d - 2
(5.5) + 2 = (d - 2) + 2
7.5 = d
Now if instead of adding 2, you subtract 2, the problem becomes:
5.5 = d - 2
(5.5) - 2 = (d - 2) - 2
3.5 = d - 4
This doesn't solve your problem, it just makes the value needed to be canceled out larger.
Thus d = 7.5 and you will add because the value is negative.
