Question

1. Complete the table below to solve the equation

Answer 1

1. Complete the table below to solve the equation 2.5x − 10.5 = 64(0.5x).
x
f(x) = 2.5x − 10.5
g(x) = 64(0.5x)
2
 f(x)=
 g(x)=
3
 f(x)=
 g(x)=
4
 f(x)=
 g(x)=
5
 f(x)=
 g(x)=
6
 f(x)=
 g(x)=

Answer 2

lol idk what comes after 2.5x − 10.5

Answer 3

You are given 2 different functions, f(x) and g(x). But you don't show what you're supposed to do with them. Add? Subtract? Multiply? Divide?

Please go back and ensure that you've copied down all parts of this question.

Answer 4

this is what it said im sorry there was nothing else

Answer 5

i actually just don't understand anything about this :( but thank you for trying

Answer 6

I think you are suppose to use the values of x from 1 to 6 in each function and then see where the result is the same. At that point f(x) = g(x)

Answer 7

Thanks for the tip, triciaal.
Rambler: Please multiply out the right side of the given equation.

Answer 8

so i multiply what ? the 64 times (0.5)

Answer 9

64(0.5x) yes

Answer 10

2.5x − 10.5 = 32x ?

Answer 11

so then i find what x is?

Answer 12

Yes. What do you think the next step is?

Answer 13

x=4?

Answer 14

Please show ALL steps that you go through.

Answer 15

i dont think its the right way but i just subrtact 10.5 and then 2.5 get the number than divide by 32?

Answer 16

to get 4

Answer 17

2.5(4) − 10.5 = 32(4)???

Answer 18

This much is correct: 2.5x − 10.5 = 32x

You need to "combine like terms." What does that mean?

Answer 19

take the 2.5 and put it under the 10.5 and subtract?

Answer 20

or can i not becuase 10 doesnt have an x

Answer 21

No, because 2.5x and 10.5 are not like terms.
Try again.

Answer 22

but i thought you couldn't combine on opposites of the = sign?

Answer 23

29.5x - 10.5 ?

Answer 24

Sign has nothing to do with it here. What's important is that you have "like terms".

1 boy and 1 girl do not equal 2 boys. Why? boy and girl are NOT like terms.

Try again.

Answer 25

so i take the 2.5 and subtract that from 32 because they are alike?

Answer 26

and get 29.5x

Answer 27

Yes. More accurately, subtract 2.5x from both sides of the equation.

Answer 28

so that cancels out 2.5 on the left side

Answer 29

Now write the equation again, in its latest form.

Answer 30

29.5x - 10.5 ?

Answer 31

Where's the = sign? Must keep it. Result must be an equation.

Answer 32

29.5x - 10.5 = x

Answer 33

29.5-10.5 =19 so to keep that true would x be 1?

Answer 34

You should have and get 29.5x on the right side. What does that leave on the left side? To answer your question: there should be no x by itself on the right side.

Try again.

Answer 35

2.5x − 10.5 = 32x

Answer 36

? what
