Answer:

x = 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's unpack the equation x*2=5 from our definition of *:

x*2=3x+2(2)-1=5 (where x\in \mathbb{Z})

Now that we've got things defined in terms of familiar operations, we can simplify and solve for x:

3x+2(2)-1=5\\3x+4-1=5\\3x+3=5\\3x=2\\x=2/3

The sum of three consecutive multiples of 4 is 444. Find the multiples.<br> PLEASE ANS FAST PLS
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

144,148,152

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we will have, 4x + 4(x+1) + 4(x+2) = 444

=> x + (x+1) + (x+2) = 111 (dividing both sides by 4)

=>x + x+1 + x+2 =111

=> 3x + 3 = 111

=> 3x = 108

=> x = 36.

So, the three desired numbers 4x, 4(x+1) and 4(x+2) are,

4*36, 4*(36+1) and 4*(36+2)

That means the numbers are, 144, 148 and 152.

The degree of x in the equation is not 0 or 1, so the function is nonlinear.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

Your function graphs as a parabola, not a straight line. A function is only linear if its graph is a straight (non-vertical) line.
