HEELPPP how do I solve this equation please do it step by step

x = -24/7  or x = -3 3/7

Step-by-step explanation:

In this equation, the first thing we will do is to get rid of the denominators -- they complicate everything. So, we can multiply the entire equation by 10, since 10 is the lowest common multiple of 5 and 2, which are the denominators.

Then, the equation will look like this:

2(4x-2) + 5(1) = 5(3x+7) - 10(1)

Notice that the denominators will no longer exist.

Now, distribute on both sides of the equation.

The equation will look like this now:

8x - 4 + 5 = 15x + 35 - 10

Then, we must combine like terms. We want to isolate the variable x on one side of the equation. Let's isolate it on the right side. So, subtract 8x from both sides. The equation will look like this now: - 4 + 5 = 7x + 35 - 10

Now that x is on one side, let's move all the other terms to the left side. Subtract 25 from both sides (35 - 10 = 25 on the right side, get rid of it by subtracting 25). The equation now looks like this: - 4 + 5 - 25 = 7x

Finally, combine all on the left side.

Final equation: -24 = 7x

Now, we know 7x = -24. We want to solve for the value of x. So, divide both sides by 7.

x = -24/7  or x = -3 3/7

geometric series converge the common ratio r has magnitude less than one.

which is equivalent to

for the example we need

|2-x| < 1

-1 < 2-x   and 2-x < 1

x < 3 and x > 1

we can write that

answer: 1 < x < 3

1a. common ratio r=250/25=10 > 1     diverges

1b.   r=50/100=1/2 converges

when these converge they converge to

where a is the first term.

answer: 200

1c. r=-1   so it's not the case that |r| < 1.     diverges

2a. x is the common ratio so we converge when |x|< 1

2b.   r=-10x / -2 = 5x.

we converge when

|5x| < 1

|x| < 1/5

2c.   r=3-2x

-1 < 3-2x and 3-2x < 1

-4 < -2x and 2 < 2x

x < 2 and 1 < x

1 < x < 2

2d. [/tex] r=-48x^3/12 = 4x^3[/tex]

|4x^3| < 1

|x^3| < \frac 1 4

|x| < 4^{-1/3}
