Equation: 4x + 7 = 3(2x - 5)
Step-by-step solution:
• Expand brackets
-> 4x + 7 = 6x - 15
• Move x variable to a side and the numbers to another
-> 4x - 6x = -15 - 7
• Solve
-> -2x = -22
• Multiply both sides by (-1)
-> -(-2x) = -(-22)
-> 2x = 22
• Divide both sides by 2
-> x = 22/2
-> x = 11
• Justification
-> Put x = 11 in original equation
-> 4(11) + 7 = 3( 2(11) - 5)
-> 44 + 7 = 3(22 - 5)
-> 51 = 3(17)
-> 51 = 51
-> 51 - 51 = 0
-> 0 = 0
Since both sides are equal to each other, the answer to the equation is correct.
I don't know Sam's equation so I'm not gonna answer that.
Answer:
false
Step-by-step explanation:
A linear equation has x to the first power
or of the form x plus a constant
This has x to the fifth power so it is not linear
It would be f(t)= 25^t+1
If you plugged in '2' as 't',
25^2+1= 15, 625 which uses the second day of the bacteria.
