Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(-3+x)=-4

Use distributive property (Multiply -2 by -3 which gives you 6vand multiply -2 by x which gives you -2x )

6-2x=-4

Bring the 6 over to the other side

-2x=-4-6

-2x=-10

Divide both sides by -2 to get x by itself

x=5

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(-3+ x) = -4

Distribute

-2 * -3 + (-2) *x = -4

6 -2x = -4

Subtract 6 from each side

6 -2x-6 = -4-6

-2x = -10

Divide each side by -2

-2x/-2 = -10/-2

x = 5

Find the value of the following expression
Misha Larkins [42]

Looks like the expression is

(2⁸ • 5⁻⁵ • 19⁰) • (5⁻² / 2³)⁴ • 2²⁸

First, any positive number raised to 0 is 1:

(2⁸ • 5⁻⁵ • 1) • (5⁻² / 2³)⁴ • 2²⁸

(2⁸ • 5⁻⁵) • (5⁻² / 2³)⁴ • 2²⁸

Exponents in a denominator can be rewritten as negative exponents in the numerator:

(2⁸ • 5⁻⁵) • (5⁻² • 2⁻³)⁴ • 2²⁸

Distribute the 4th power across the product 5⁻² • 2⁻³ :

(5⁻² • 2⁻³)⁴ = 5⁻⁸ • 2⁻¹²

so we have

(2⁸ • 5⁻⁵) • (5⁻⁸ • 2⁻¹²) • 2²⁸

Multiplication is associative, so we can ignore the parentheses. Combine factors with equal bases and simplify the exponents:

2⁸ • 5⁻⁵ • 5⁻⁸ • 2⁻¹² • 2²⁸

2⁸⁻¹²⁺²⁸ • 5⁻⁵⁻⁸

2²⁴ • 5⁻¹³

Rewrite the negative exponent as a positive one:

2²⁴ / 5¹³

Please I need help with this question asap.

Answer:

The table is:

x        y

1         1

2        5

3        9

The graph B shows the relationship y=4x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to fill the table using the rule:

To find y multiply x by 4 and then subtract 3.

Writing rule in mathematical form:

y=4x-3

Now for completing the table we need to put x=1,2 and 3 and find values of y

For x=1//y=4x-3\\ y=4(1)-3\\ y=4-3\\ y=1\\

For \ x=2\\y=4x-3\\ y=4(2)-3\\ y=8-3\\ y=5

For \ x=3\\y=4x-3\\ y=4(3)-3\\ y=12-3\\ y=9

So, the table is:

x        y

1         1

2        5

3        9

The graph B shows the relationship y=4x-3
