Rewriting 0.4(x - 2) = 3.4 -0.2x in problem 3-120 gave you at least one new, equivalent equation that was much easier to solve. Two equations are equivalent if all of their solutions are the same. There are several ways to change one equation into a different, equivalent equation. Common ways include: adding or subtracting the same number from both sides, or multiplying or dividing both sides by the same (non-zero) number.

Rewrite an equivalent equation for each equation below. Be sure your equivalent equation has no fractions or decimals. Then solve the new equation and check your answer in the original equation.

a. -7.5.2 - 4.82 0.3 = 2.5c? + 10.02 - 1022

b. 2000(23 - 24) + 5000 = 18,000

goog may be able to you find that answer

answer: none of these answers are correct only the second half is

step-by-step explanation:

no oblique asymptote

step-by-step explanation:

to find the oblique asymptote of f(x)

here numerator has degree 1 and denomintor degree 2

degree of numerator < degree of denominator

hence there is no oblique asymptote

when the degree of the denominator > that of the numerator, we saw that the value in the denominator got so much bigger, so quickly,   giving us a horizontal asymptote of the x-axis. or we can write

f(x) = a polynomial of x + a proper fraction.

in this case only we have oblique asymptotes but not when numerator has less degree.

using pemdas, (order of operations) you'll see the answer is 24.
