Answer:

x=-10

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x+3)=x-4

2*x+2*3=x-4

2x+6=x-4

2x-x=-4-6

x=-10

Answer:

$x = - 10$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve:

$2(x+3)=x−4$

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

$2(x+3)=x−4 \\ (2)(x)+(2)(3)=x+−4(Distribute) \\ 2x+6=x+−4 \\ 2x+6=x−4$

Step 2: Subtract x from both sides.

$2x+6−x=x−4−x \\ x+6=−4$

Step 3: Subtract 6 from both sides.

$x+6−6=−4−6 \\ x=−10$

A particular number was divided by 6 qnd then 5 was taken away from the quotient. Finally, the difference was mutiplird by 2. Gi

Nitella [24]

N is the number
divided by 6 then n/6
5 was taken away so (n/6)-5
the result is multiplied by 2 so 2((n/6)-5)
result is -12

-12=2((n/6)-5)
divide both sides by 2
-6=(n/6)-5
add 5
-1=n/6
times 6
-6=n
da number was -6

Pick the set of numbers which contain ALL perfect squares:

Ede4ka [16]

Well, a way to do this problem would be to find the set of numbers that all of rational square roots. A list of perfect squares would be 1^2=1, 2^2=4, 3^2=9, 4^2=16, 5^2=25, 6^2=36, 7^2=49, 8^2=64, 9^2=81, 10^2=100.

Determine the area enclosed by y=2x+3, the x-axis and the ordinates x=3 and x=4

jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

$\displaystyle \int\limits^4_3 {2x + 3} \, dx = 10$

General Formulas and Concepts:
Calculus

Integration

Integrals

Integration Rule [Reverse Power Rule]: $\displaystyle \int {x^n} \, dx = \frac{x^{n + 1}}{n + 1} + C$

Integration Rule [Fundamental Theorem of Calculus 1]: $\displaystyle \int\limits^b_a {f(x)} \, dx = F(b) - F(a)$

Integration Property [Multiplied Constant]: $\displaystyle \int {cf(x)} \, dx = c \int {f(x)} \, dx$

Integration Property [Addition/Subtraction]: $\displaystyle \int {[f(x) \pm g(x)]} \, dx = \int {f(x)} \, dx \pm \int {g(x)} \, dx$

Area of a Region Formula: $\displaystyle A = \int\limits^b_a {[f(x) - g(x)]} \, dx$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify.

y = 2x + 3

x-interval [3, 4]

x-axis

See attachment for graph.

Step 2: Find Area

Substitute in variables [Area of a Region Formula]: $\displaystyle A = \int\limits^4_3 {2x + 3} \, dx$
[Integral] Rewrite [Integration Property - Addition/Subtraction]: $\displaystyle A = \int\limits^4_3 {2x} \, dx + \int\limits^4_3 {3} \, dx$
[Integrals] Rewrite [Integration Property - Multiplied Constant]: $\displaystyle A = 2 \int\limits^4_3 {x} \, dx + 3 \int\limits^4_3 {} \, dx$
[Integrals] Integrate [Integration Rule - Reverse Power Rule]: $\displaystyle A = 2 \bigg( \frac{x^2}{2} \bigg) \bigg| \limits^4_3 + 3(x) \bigg| \limits^4_3$
[Integrals] Integrate [Integration Rule - FTC 1]: $\displaystyle A = 2 \bigg( \frac{7}{2} \bigg) + 3(1)$
Simplify: $\displaystyle A = 10$
