Answer:
x = -1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
1-3x = x+3
Add 3x to each side
1-3x+3x = x+3x+3
1 = 4x+3
Subtract 3 from each side
1-3 = 4x+3-3
-2 = 4x
Divide each side by 4
-2/4 = 4x/4
-1/2 =x
Answer:
The next number selected should be between 2 and 3 .
Step-by-step explanation:
x. x f(x) g(x)
0 10 17
1 11 19
2 14 21
3 19 23
4 26 25
3.5 22.25 24
<u>2.5 16.25 22</u>
1.5 12.25 20
0.5 10.25 18
We see the pattern that it is increasing with only a unit. The last given data is mid of the last two values that is 3 and 4.
So the next value would be the mid of the next last two values that is 2 and 3 and will be 2.5
Now it is moving in the reverse direction in the same pattern with a difference of a unit.
