Consider the following statement There are real numbers and such that Va+ V + b in the box below, as an ordered, comma that satisfy the property. Show that you can do this by entering appropriate values for a and To prove the statement, it suffices to find values of a and separated list of two numbers (,) -

a=0, b=16, of the pair (0,16)

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to prove the following: There are real numbers a and b such that

So, to prove this, it is enough to find a pair (a,b) of real numbers for which the equation holds true. There are infinite of such pairs, but one example is (0,16). Indeed:

In fact, (0,m) or (n,0) ara valid pairs, for nonnegative numbers m,n. Even more is true; these are the only pairs which satisfy the equation.

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4x+2=2x+12

step 1: subtract 2x from both sides.

4x+2−2x=2x+12−2x

2x+2=12

step 2: subtract 2 from both sides.

2x+2−2=12−2

2x=10

step 3: divide both sides by 2.

2x

2

=
