Answer:
x= -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
To find:
The value of x.
Solution:
We have,
To find the value of x, we need to isolate x on one side.
Subtract 2b from both sides.
Divide both sides by -3. On multiplying or dividing an inequality by a negative number, we need to change the sign of inequality.
The required inequality for x is .
Therefore, the correct option is A.
Answer:
The story tells of a plain-looking little bird (the Ugly Duckling) born in a barnyard. His brothers and sisters as well as the other birds and animals on the farm tease him for being plain and ugly, so he runs off to live with a flock of wild ducks and geese until hunters shoot down the flock. Alone again, the Ugly Duckling finds a home with an old woman, but her cat and hen also tease him, so he doesn't stay there long.
In his wanderings, the Ugly Duckling comes across a flock of migrating swans, and he wishes to join them but can't because he's too young and can't fly well enough. When winter sets in, a farmer rescues the Ugly Duckling, but the farmer's children and other animals frighten him with their noise and teasing, so again, he flees. He spends a cold and lonely winter hiding in a cave until springtime, when the flock of swans comes to the lake near his hiding place.
When the Ugly Duckling approaches the swans, he's delighted to find that they accept him and treat him like one of them. When he looks at his reflection in the lake, he realizes, to his astonishment, that he's matured into a beautiful swan himself. When the swans fly off from the lake, he spreads his wings and joins them, finally having found a family who accepts him.
Let S be the sum,
S = 2 + 4 + 6 + ... + 2 (n - 2) + 2 (n - 1) + 2n
Reverse the order of terms:
S = 2n + 2 (n - 1) + 2 (n - 2) + ... + 6 + 4 + 2
Add up terms in the same positions, so that twice the sum is
2S = (2n + 2) + (2n + 2) + (2n + 2) + ... + (2n + 2)
or
2S = n (2n + 2)
Divide both sides by 2 to solve for S :
S = n (n + 1)
Solve is the certain answer, not "check the equation" silly. Now, I must solve some more problems on Brainly :)
