Which is a reasonable first step that can be used to solve the equation 2 (x + 6) = 3 (x - 4) + 5? A.) Combine like terms, 3 and 5, on the right side of the equation.

B.) Distribute 2 to (x + 6) and 3 to (x – 4).

C.)Distribute 2 to x on the left side of the equation and 3 to x on the right side of the equation.

D.)Apply the subtraction property of equality to move the 6 from the left side of the equation to the right side.

B

Step-by-step explanation:

180 square centimeters

step-by-step explanation:

g(x) = 3*(8(3^(x−2))+2)

g(x) = 24 (3^(x-2) )+6

the factor is 2

step-by-step explanation:

let f(x)=8(3^(x−2)+2)

to stretch a graph by 3, it would be 3f(x)

g(x) =3f(x)

g(x) = 3*(8(3^(x−2))+2)

g(x) = 24 (3^(x-2) )+6

x     −2     0     2     4     6

f(x) 1/64 1/16   1/4     1     4

1/64 * z * z = 1/16

i multiplies by z twice because it its 2 steps from -2 to 0

1/64 z^2 = 1/16

multiply by 64 to clear the fraction on the left side

1/4 * 64 z^2 =1/16 *64

z^2 = 4

take the square root of each side

sqrt(z^2) = ±sqrt(4)

z = ±2  

we are multiplying by 2 each time.
