Not a triangle because the two smaller numbers do not add up to a bigger number than 15
The answer is 3 + 2k
This is because multiplying by 1/5 is like dividing each term by 5
10k + 15 = 5 • (2k + 3)
Answer:
Student B is correct
Student A failed to distribute -4 and -6 when opening the brackets in the first step
Step-by-step explanation:
The solution Student A gave was:
2x - 4(3x + 6) = -6(2x + 1) - 4
2x - 12x + 6 = -12x + 1 - 4
-10x + 6 = -12x - 3
2x = -9
x = -4 _1 2 ( -4 1/2)
The solution Student B gave was:
2x - 4(3x + 6) = -6(2x + 1) - 4
2x - 12x - 24 = -12x - 6 - 4
-10x - 24 = -12x - 10
2x = 14
x = 7
Student B is correct.
Explanation of the error:
Student A failed to distribute -4 and -6 when opening the brackets in the first step.
That is,
2x - 4(3x + 6) = -6(2x + 1) - 4
To open this bracket, we will distribute, -4 and -6 so that we get
2x (-4 × 3x) + (-4 × +6) = (-6×2x) + (-6 × +1) - 4
Then we will get
2x -12x -24 = -12x -6 -4
Adding the like terms
-10x - 24 = -12x - 10
Collecting like terms
-10x + 12x = -10 + 24
∴ 2x = 14
x = 14 / 2
Hence,
x = 7
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y - 4 = -2/3(x - 3)
y - 4 = -2/3x + 2
y = -2/3x + 6
Answer:
No.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's find out if 1 bag of soil is enough to fill 1 container.
<u>Given:</u>
2/5 of a bag fills 1/3s of a containter.
With the given, multiplying 2/5 by 2.5 represents one. Multiply 1/3 by 2.5 aswell.
<u>Products:</u>
1, and 2.5/3 or 5/6
1 bag can fill 5/6 of a container.
Therefore, 1 bag can't fill 1 container.
