Answer:

-5(3x + 6) = -3(4x - 2)

Distribute -5 through the parenthesis

-15x - 30 = -3(4x - 2)

distribute -3 through the other parenthesis

-15x - 30 = -3( -12x + 6 )

move the variable the left hand side, change sign

-15x + 12 - 30 = 6

move constant to the right hand side

-15x + 12 = 6 + 30

collect like terms

-3x = 6 + 30

add the numbers

-3x = 36

divide both sides by -3

-3/-3 = 36/-3

x = -12

Answer:

-5(3x + 6) = -3(4x - 2)

-15x-30=-12x+6

-30-6=-12x+15x

3x=-36

x=-36/3=-12

F(x)=3.7-2x
Luda [366]

Answer:

C) h(x)=-1.3-1.75x

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=3.7-2x  

g(x) = 0.25x-5

f(x) + g(x) =3.7-2x   + 0.25x-5

Combine like terms

              = -1.75x - 1.3

I need help with this problem!!

C because it has the x variables in the numerator. This is wrong because the x axis represents horizontal movement and slope is rise over run, not run over rise

What is the right-hand limit of as x approaches f(x) = x/x-5 as x approaches 5?
Ber [7]

Answer:

+\infty

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression for the right hand limit of f(x) is:

f = \frac{x+\epsilon}{x + \epsilon - 5}

The expression can be simplified with some algebraic handling:

f = \frac{1}{\frac{x+\epsilon-5}{x+\epsilon} }

f = \frac{1}{1-\frac{5}{x+\epsilon} }

Let be x = 5, as \epsilon is approaching zero, f is positive and becomes bigger, diverging to +\infty.
