g(x) = 0.4x - 1.8

Since the output, or g(x), is 4.6, substitute that number in for g(x).

4.6 = 0.4x - 1.8

Add 1.8 to both sides of the equation.

4.6 + 1.8 = 0.4x - 1.8 + 1.8

6.4 = 0.4x

Now, divide 6.4 by 0.4.

The answer is x = 16. The output is also x.

When solving for x, what is x squared plus 15 equals -8x

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

x = - 5, x = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 15 = - 8x ( add 8x to both sides )

x² + 8x + 15 = 0 ← in standard form

Consider the factors of the constant term (+ 15) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 8)

The factors are 5 and 3, since

5 × 3 = 15 and 5 + 3= 8, thus

(x + 5)(x + 3) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 5 = 0 ⇒ x = - 5

x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3

We want to solve
$3e^{2x}+5=27$

Subtract 5 from each side.
$3e^{2x}=22$
Divide each side by 3.
$e^{2x}=7.3333$
Take natural logs of each side.
$2x=ln(7.3333)=1.9924$
Divide each side by 2.
x = 0.9962

Answer: x = 0.996 (nearest thousanth)
