Answer:
x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
4(2x + 1) - 3 = - 3(x - 4) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides
8x + 4 - 3 = - 3x + 12
8x + 1 = - 3x + 12 ( add 3x to both sides )
11x + 1 = 12 ( subtract 1 from both sides )
11x = 11 ( divide both sides by 11 )
x = 1
Rule: second differences are 2.
Selection C is appropriate.
_____
First differences are the sequence of differences of the given numbers:
.. 3 -8 = -5
.. 0 -3 = -3
.. -1 -0 = -1
.. 0 -(-1) = 1
Second differences are the sequence of differences of these:
.. -3 -(-5) = 2
.. -1 -(-3) = 2
.. 1 -(-1) = 2
All of these are 2, so the sequence can be described by a *second* order polynomial (because *second* differences are a non-zero constant).
The slope of a horizontal line is 0.
It doesn't raise any higher so it can have a slope
