Answer:

x=16/3

Step-by-step explanation:

5x−2(x+1)=14

Distribute

5x -2x -2 =14

Combine like terms

3x -2 =14

Add 2 to each side

3x-2+2 =14+2

3x=16

Divide each side by 3

3x/3 = 16/3

x=16/3

Answer:

x = 16/3

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 2(x + 1) = 14

~Simplify

5x - 2x - 2 = 14

~Combine like terms

3x - 2 = 14

~Add 2 to both sides

3x = 16

~Divide 3 to both sides

x = 16/3

Best of Luck!

A pool pass costs $30 for the first month and $15 each additional month. Construct an explicit rule in function notation to mode
noname [10]

Answer:

F(n)=15(n+1)    [ where n is number of months]

F(12)=195

Step-by-step explanation:

Pool pass cost for first month =$30

Pool pass cost after first month = $15 for each month

The total amount charged by the pool can be expressed as a  function F(n) where n represents the number of months.

F(n)=15(n-1)+30

This can be simplified by using distribution.

F(n)=(15n-15)+30

F(n)=15n-15+30

F(n)=15n+15

Take 15 as greatest common factor.

∴ F(n)=15(n+1)

For n=12

F(12)=15(12+1)

F(12)=15(13)

F(12)=195

∴ Amount charged by pool for 12 months = $195

Three consecutive integers have a sum of 56. what are the three integers
denis23 [38]

Answer:

impossible

Step-by-step explanation:

X + X + 1 + X + 2 = 56. To solve for X, you first add the integers together and the X variables together. Then you subtract 3 from each side, followed by dividing by 3 on each side. ...

3X + 3 = 56. 3X + 3 - 3 = 56 - 3.

3X = 53. 3X/3 = 53/3.

X = 17 2/3. Since 17 2/3 is not an integer, there is no true answer to this problem.
