Solve the following equation
3x + 5 = 17

Geometry pre

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to get the 3x by itself on the left. To do this, we subtract 5 from both sides. 3x + 5 - 5 = 17 - 5; 3x = 12. Now, to find x, we divide both sides by 3 to get 3x/3=12/3; x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Move constant to R.H.S and change it's sign

⇒

Subtract 5 from 17

⇒

Divide both sides of the equation by 3

⇒

Calculate

a) 7x=7

step-by-step explanation:

(1, –1), (16, –4), (36, –6)

step-by-step explanation:

given that the function is

this can also be written as

we have to graph this function and check which list of points lie on the graph

see attachment for graph:

we find that the points lying are (1,-1) (16,-4) and (36,-6)

since square root is there we find that x can only be posiitve but y can be since square root both positive and negative.
