Answer: a) 10x-6x and c) 12x+2x-10x

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets start by simplifying all the expressions

a) 10x-6x=4x

b)7x+3x=10x

c)12x+2x-10x=14x-10x=4x

d)x-x+2x=2x

As you can see a and c both simplify to 4x meaning that is our answer.

<h3>Answer:</h3>

Options A and C

<h3>Solution:</h3>

In order to simplify these expressions, we should combine like terms:
10x-6x=4x
7x+3x=10x
12x+2x-10x=14x-10x=4x (so expressions A & C are equivalent)
x-x+2x=0x+2x=2x

Hope it helps.

For the first 80 miles of her road trip, Lina travels 10 miles/hour slower than she did for the remaining 50 miles of her trip.

Contact [7]

The expressions represent the total time of her trip in hours is $\rm \dfrac{80}{s} + \dfrac{50}{s+10}$ .

Given that,

For the first 80 miles of her road trip, Lina travels 10 miles/hour slower than she did for the remaining 50 miles of her trip.

It represents Lina's speed during the first part of her trip.

We have to determine,

Which expressions represent the total time of her trip in hours?

According to the question,

Let the speed traveled during the first part of the trip be "s".

The formula for calculating the distance is expressed as:

$\rm Distance = Speed \times Time$

For the first part of the journey:

Distance = 80 miles

Time = $\rm t_1$

And Speed = s

Substitute all the values in the formula,

$\rm Distance = Speed \times Time\\\\80 = s \times t_1\\\\ t_1= \dfrac{80}{s}$

For the second part of the trip;

Distance traveled = 50 miles

Speed = s + 10 (10miles/hour faster than the first part of the trip)

time = $\rm t_2$

Substitute all the values in the formula,

$\rm Distance = Speed \times Time\\\\50 = (s+10) \times t_2\\\\ t_2 = \dfrac{50}{s+10}$

Therefore,

Adding both the time to represent the total time of her trip in hours,

$\rm = t_1 +t_2 \\\\ = \dfrac{80}{s} + \dfrac{50}{s+10}$

Hence, The required expressions represent the total time of her trip in hours is $\rm \dfrac{80}{s} + \dfrac{50}{s+10}$ .

Mark and peter went to an arcade where the machines took tokens. Marilk played 9 games of ping pong and 5 games of pinball, usin

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

9x + 5y = 29 ........... (1) and

3x + y = 7 ........... (2)

Each game of ping pong requires 1 number of token and each game of pinball requires 4 number of tokens.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, each game of ping pong requires x number of tokens and each game of pinball requires y number of tokens.

So, from the given conditions we can write

9x + 5y = 29 ........... (1) and

3x + y = 7 ........... (2)

Now, solving equations (1) and (2) we get,

9x + 5(7 - 3x) = 29

⇒ 35 - 6x = 29

⇒ 6x = 6

⇒ x = 1 token.

Now, putting x = 1 in equation (2) we get,

3 + y = 7

⇒ y = 4 tokens.

So, each game of ping pong requires 1 number of token and each game of pinball requires 4 number of tokens. (Answer)
