What is the answer to the question, 5(x+2) = 11?

Solution given:

5(x+2) = 11

dividing both side by 5

5(x+2)/5=11/5

x+2=11/5

subtracting both side by 2

x+2-2=11/5-2

x=11/5-2

x={11-2*5}/5[taking l.c m

x={11-10}/5

x=1/5

x=1/5is a required answer.

x=1\5

Step-by-step explanation:

5×x=5x

5×2=10

5x+10=11

5x=11-10

5x=1divide both sides by 5

answer= x=1\5

step-by-step explanation:

since the sequence is geometric there is a common ratio r between consecutive terms, that is

r = 4 ÷ - 2 = - 2

r = - 8 ÷ 4 = - 2

r = 16 ÷ 8 = - 2

the next term - 13 must be incorrect as it should be - 32 for the sequence to be geometric.

the first 4 terms are therefore geometric with common ratio r = - 2

1/4 because there is 4 grades.
