Answer:
5(3x - 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
5(3x - 4)
use the distributive property
15x - 20
so its correct
Hi,
Essentially, we are saying that Alyssa gets 5 parts of the whole thing (140,000), Bart gets 3 parts of the whole and Meghan gets 2 parts of the whole. The sum total of their parts = the whole. So now we need to find out how much one part is. Thus,"one part" should be the variable. Substitute p for "one part", so Alyssa gets 5p, Bart gets 3p, and Meghan gets 2p. Since the sum of the parts = the whole, your problem sets up as: 5p + 3p + 2p = 140,000 --> 10p = 140,000 --> 10p/10 = 140,000/10 --> x = 14,000.
Alyssa gets 5p or (5 x 14,000)
Bart gets 3p or (3 x 14,000)
Meghan gets 2p or (2 x 14,000)
If the whole was a loss, it would be a negative, and instead of getting money, they would lose money.
I'm not sure that I am 100% right but I'll give it a shot.
50+75= 125*0.35=43.75
$43.75
X intercept: (- 1/7, 0)
Y intercept: (0, 1/4)
Answer:
16.5x == 465.3
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the rate , take the number of miles and divide by the gallons
rate = 465.3 / 16.5
Let the rate be x
x = 465.3 / 16.5
Multiply each side by 16.5
16.5x = 465.3
