Answer:37
Step-by-step explanation:
first you put them in order from least to greatest
which would be 15,22,37,49,72
then the middle number would be your answer hope this helps!

Answer:
The extraneous solution is 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let us calculate the value of 'x' without squaring both side of the expression. This is illustrated below:
-5 = 3x - 7
Collect like terms
-5 + 7 = 3x
2 = 3x
Divide both side by 3
x = 2/3.
Now, let us calculate the value of 'x' by squaring both side of the expression. This is illustrated below:
(-5)^2 = (3x - 7)^2
25 = (3x - 7)(3x - 7)
25 = 9x^2 - 21x - 21x + 49
9x^2 - 42x + 49 - 25 = 0
9x^2 - 42x + 24 = 0
Solving by factorisation:
Multiply the first term i.e 9x^2 and 3rd term i.e 24 together. The result is 216x^2.
Next, we shall obtain two factors of 216x^2 such that when we add them together, it will give the 2nd term i.e -42x in the equation. These factors are: -6x and -36x
Now we can write the above equation as:
9x^2 - 42x + 24 = 0
9x^2 - 6x - 36x + 24 = 0
3x(3x - 2) - 12(3x - 2) = 0
(3x - 12)(3x - 2) = 0
3x - 12 = 0 or 3x - 2 = 0
3x = 12 or 3x = 2
x = 12/3 or x = 2/3
x = 4 or 2/3.
We can see that when we solve the question without squaring both side, the value of x is 2/3. But when we solve by squaring both side, the value of x are 4 and 2/3.
Therefore, the extraneous solution to the question is 4.
The answer for number 3 is 96.7 if you want the work shown I would recommend you to download the app Socratic and for number six you multiply.75x14 then also multiply.35x7 then add add up the answers which will be 12.95 then you subtract that from 15 the answer is $2.05
Disagree with Lin: There are no solutions because 12x+2x is equal to 14x, if 14x=14x on both sides, the x variable can be cancelled out since they have the same slope
