The Answer is A. the two lines have the same slope They are increasing or decreasing at the SAME amount so they will NEVER intersect
We can model this situation.
Raina received a total of 83 calls
First evening she received 7 more than the third so let x = third and since we know she received 7 more we know to add 7 to the third so (x + 7)
Second evening she received 2 times as many as the third so 2 time third, which x is the third so (2 times x) or we could say 2x
Third evening = x
So now lets solve for x and then we can find how many she received each evening.
Our Model: (x + 7) + 2x + x = 83
(x + 7) + 2x + x = 83
x + 7 + 2x + x = 83
x + 2x + x + 7 = 83
4x + 7 = 83
4x + 7 - 7 = 83 -7
4x = 76
4x / 4 = 76 / 4
x = 19
First evening:
19 + 7 = 26 calls
Second evening
2 times 19 = 38
Third evening
19
Check our answer:
26 + 38 + 19 = 83
Answer:
x = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
This is an equilateral triangle as all 3 angles are marked as equal.
Hence the 3 sides are equal
Equate any 2 and solve for x
4x - 30 = 3x - 5 ( subtract 3x from both sides )
x - 30 = - 5 ( add 30 to both sides )
x = 25
As a check on the sides
4x - 30 = (4 × 25) - 30 = 100 - 30 = 70
3x - 5 = (3 × 25 ) - 5 = 75 - 5 = 70
2x + 20 = (2 × 25 ) + 20 = 50 + 20 = 70
confirming that x = 25
