Answer 1

@Lopez______RvB

Answer 2

well x = 1/3

Answer 3

are there choices

Answer 4

nope :C

Answer 5

that was all i knew actually :P

Answer 6

Answer 8

o wait um i did a mistake!

Answer 9

its 8x=2^x+2!!!

Answer 10

8x = 2x + 2

In order to bring this equation to graphable form,

we need to move all the terms to the left side.

In our example,

- 2 terms , , will be moved to the left side.

Notice that a term changes sign when it 'moves'

from one side of the equation to the other.

Answer 11

wait but i messed up cause i didnt realize it look at it again :P

Answer 12

8x=2^x+2!!!

Answer 13

that was totally my fault!

Answer 14

We need to get rid of expression parentheses.

If there is a negative sign in front of it,

each term within the expression changes sign.

Otherwise, the expression remains unchanged.

In our example, there are no negative expressions

Answer 15

but um lopez i gave you the wrong equation

Answer 16

In order to solve this non-linear equation,

we need to move all the terms to the left side.

In our example,

- 2 terms 2x^x, 2, will be moved to the left side.

Notice that a term changes sign when it 'moves'

from one side of the equation to the other
