Step-by-step explanation:
2 + x + 2x = 14
3x + 2 = 14 (combine like terms)
3x = 12 (subtract 2 from both sides)
Hence the answer is 3x = 12. (B)
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
the ideal way to put the equation would be x= 6 x 8 but since that is not an option B is the answer. the keyword is "each" that allows you to know that you will be multiplying those to numbers.
so the only one that allows you to multiply 6 and 8 is B when you multiply 6 to the other side.
In this exercise we have to use the knowledge of geometric progression to find three specific numbers, in this way we can say that these numbers correspond to;
Then using the formula of the geometric progression we find that:
now, the differences between the terms must be the same:
and now, when we increase the third term by 9,so we have:

Now we use that identity in the first equation :
The general solution for a quadratic equation is
We have that:
so, put the numbers in the formula we find:
