Answer:

-x

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

5x + 2 = 3x

Reorder the terms:

2 + 5x = 3x

Solving

2 + 5x = 3x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.

2 + 5x + -3x = 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 5x + -3x = 2x

2 + 2x = 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0

2 + 2x = 0

Add '-2' to each side of the equation.

2 + -2 + 2x = 0 + -2

Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0

0 + 2x = 0 + -2

2x = 0 + -2

Combine like terms: 0 + -2 = -2

2x = -2

Divide each side by '2'.

x = -1

Simplifying

x = -1

= -x

I hope this helped, please mark Brainliest, thank you!! =)

Consider the polynomial function g(x)=x³-3x²+6x+8. Divide g by x+1.
irina [24]

Answer:

Quotient ( x² -4x +10)

Reminder -2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to consider the polynomial function g(x) = x³ - 3x² + 6x + 8

Now, we have to divide g(x) by (x+1)

Let us arrange the terms of g(x) to get (x+1) as common.

x³ - 3x² + 6x + 8

= x³ +x² -4x² -4x +10x +10 -2

= x² (x +1) -4x (x +1) +10 (x +1) -2

= (x +1)( x² -4x +10) -2

Hence, if we divide g(x) by (x +1) then the quotient will be ( x² -4x +10) and the reminder will be -2. (Answer)

Which triangles are congruent by AAS?
netineya [11]
For two triangles to be congruent by AAS:
1- Two angles in the first triangle must be equal to two angles in the second triangle
2- A non included side in the first triangle is equal to a non included side in the second triangle

Now, let's check our options. We will find that:
For the two triangles UTV and ABC:
angle T = angle A
angle V = angle C
TU (non-included between angles T & V) = AB (non-included between angles A & C)

Therefore, we can conclude that:
Triangles ABC and UTV are congruent by AAS

DerKrebs [107]
The factors are just numbers that can be multiplied to receive the number that is given.

The factors of 24 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24.

1 × 24 = 24
2 × 12 = 24
3 × 8 = 24

Two ducklings wander away from the nest while their mother is away. The first duckling's displacement (distance and direction) f
aksik [14]

the second duckling is wandering by 2.6 units distance than the first duckling .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , Two ducklings wander away from the nest while their mother is away. The first duckling's displacement (distance and direction) from the nest is (12,5) The second duckling's displacement is (13,-8) . We need to find How much farther did the second duckling wander than the first duckling. Let's find out:

Let a = (12,5) and b =(13,-8)

The distance each duckling wandered is the magnitude of its displacement vector. Therefore, the expression Distance second duck wandered is given by :

⇒ D  = |b|-|a|

⇒ D  = \sqrt{13^2+(-8)^2} -\sqrt{12^2+5^2}

⇒ D  = \sqrt{233} -\sqrt{169}

⇒ D  =15.26 -13

⇒ D  =2.6

Therefore , the second duckling is wandering by 2.6 units distance than the first duckling .
