Answer:

x = 15/8           -> Pls. when you post math questions out there, always tell what you need, otherwise, it becomes a guessing game. Are you trying to Factor/Simplify/Roots/Polynomials, etc? This doesn't pertain to this problem it's just a general statement.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

(2 x)/3 - x/5 = x - 1

Put each term in (2 x)/3 - x/5 over the common denominator 15: (2 x)/3 - x/5 = (10 x)/15 - (3 x)/15:

(10 x)/15 - (3 x)/15 = x - 1

(10 x)/15 - (3 x)/15 = (10 x - 3 x)/15:

(10 x - 3 x)/15 = x - 1

10 x - 3 x = 7 x:

(7 x)/15 = x - 1

Multiply both sides by 15:

(15×7 x)/15 = 15 (x - 1)

(15×7 x)/15 = 15/15×7 x = 7 x:

7 x = 15 (x - 1)

Expand out terms of the right hand side:

7 x = 15 x - 15

Subtract 15 x from both sides:

7 x - 15 x = (15 x - 15 x) - 15

7 x - 15 x = -8 x:

-8 x = (15 x - 15 x) - 15

15 x - 15 x = 0:

-8 x = -15

Divide both sides of -8 x = -15 by -8:

(-8 x)/(-8) = (-15)/(-8)

(-8)/(-8) = 1:

x = (-15)/(-8)

Multiply numerator and denominator of (-15)/(-8) by -1:

Answer: x = 15/8

(WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST) Which of the following exponential functions goes through the points (1, 6) and (2, 12)?
olganol [36]

Answer:

\boxed{a. \: f(x) = 3(2)x} \: is \: correct

Step-by-step explanation:

if \: the  \: points \: are \:  (1, 6) \:  and  \: (2, 12) \to \\ then \to \\ m =  \frac{12 - 6}{2 - 1}  =  \frac{6}{1}  \\  \boxed{m = 6} \\ y - 6 = m(x  - 1) \\ y = 6x - 6 + 6 \\ y = 6x = (3)(2)x \\ but \: y = f(x) \to \: hence \to \\ \boxed{ f(x) = 3(2)x}

In the graph of An inequality, the area above a solid line through the point (-5,2) and (3,2) is shaded. Which inequality does t
allochka39001 [22]

The inequality shown by this graph is  y ≥ 2.

<h3>Describe inequality.</h3>

the relationship between two non-equal expressions using a symbol like "not equal to," ≠ "greater than >," or "less than <  "

The inequality sign : ≥ or ≤ to use is: or because the line is solid and not dotted.

Given that the points have y-coordinate values of 2, (-5, 2), and (3, 2), respectively, and that the line crosses the y-axis at this point, the proper inequality is:

y ≥ 2

Therefore, y ≥  2 is the inequality.
