Answer:

x = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

2(4x+2) = 4x - 12(x-1)

Expand brackets.

8x + 4 = 4x - 12x + 12

Subtract 4 on both sides.

8x = 4x - 12x + 12 - 4

Subtract 4x and add 12x on both sides.

8x - 4x + 12x = 12 - 4

Combine like terms.

16x = 8

Divide both sides by 16.

x = 8/16 = 1/2

Answer:

x = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

2(4x+2) = 4x - 12(x-1)

Distribute

8x +4 = 4x - 12x +12

Combine like terms

8x + 4 = -8x +12

Add 8x to each side

8x+4+8x = -8x+12 +8x

16x+4 = 12

Subtract 4 from each side

16x +4-4 = 12-4

16x = 8

Divide by 16

16x/16 =8/16

x = 1/2

Use synthetic division to solve (x3 + 1) ÷ (x – 1). What is the quotient?
mamaluj [8]
Steps:

Use the divisor and find x :
x - 1 = 0  **add 1
x= 1
Now we will use the 1 in dividing:

take the coefficients from in front of all terms
   ** make sure you include 0's for x^2 and x since you have to have all terms

set it up with a 1 in a box:

1|  1   0   0  1   **bring the first number down
____________
     1                    **multiply the boxed number by the first number and add it                                 to the second number

1|  1   0   0  1   
____+1_____       **repeat with the rest of the terms
     1   1   

1|  1   0    0    1
  ___+1_+1_+1   
     1   1    1    2                              
**when you're done, use the new numbers to write an equation starting with a term with a degree one less than the previous equation.
**since there is a remainder, rewrite it divided by the original divisor

final answer:
x^2 + x + 1 + (2/ x -1)

Whitch of the following options have the same value of 15 % of 20​
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

15% of 20 is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

because 15/100 can be reduced if you divide by 5 which will be 3/20. After you multiply 3/20 by 20/1. So 20*3 is 60 divided by 20 because 20*1 equals 20 you get 3.
