Burka [1]1 year ago

6 0

When the value of x is 3, evaluate;

$8(x+2)$

Substitute for the value of x into the parenthesis;

$\begin{gathered} 8(x+2)=8(3+2) \\ 8(x+2)=8(5) \\ 8(x+2)=40 \end{gathered}$

ANSWER:

The expression equals 40 (when x = 3)

What is the solution to 4(x-1)-2(3x+5)=-3x-1

Margarita [4]

To solve this problem, we need to get the variable x alone on one side of the equation. To begin, we are going to use the distributive property twice on the left side of the equation to expand the multiplication and get rid of the parentheses.

4(x-1) - 2(3x + 5) = -3x -1

4x - 4 -6x - 10 = -3x - 1

Next, we should combine like terms on the left side of the equation. This means we should add/subtract the variable terms and the constant terms in order to simplify this equation further.

-2x - 14 = -3x - 1

Then, we have to add 3x to both sides of the equation to get the variable terms all on the left side of the equation.

x - 14 = -1

After that, we should add 14 to both sides of the equation to get the variable x alone one the left side of the equation.

x = 13

Therefore, the answer is 13.

Hope this helps!

(x – 4)(x+6)<br> Need help simplify

Ksivusya [100]

The answer would be 2x^2+2x-24

using foil, you would multiply together x & x, x & 6, -4 & x, and -4 & 6, then add them together.

Jason wants to plant 66 carrot seeds and 44 onion bulbs. He would like to plant them so

dexar [7]

The greatest number of plants he can have in each row is 22

He would have 3 rows of carrots

He would have 2 rows of onions

<h3>Greatest Common Factor</h3>

From the question, we are to determine the greatest number of plants he can have in each row

From the given information,

Jason wants to plant 66 carrot seeds and 44 onion bulbs

The greatest number of plants he can have in each row is the greatest common factor of 66 and 44

Factors of 66: 1, 2, 3, 6, 11, 22, 33, and 66

Factors of 44: 1, 2, 4, 11, 22 and 44

The greatest common factor of 66 and 44 is 22

Thus,

The greatest number of plants he can have in each row is 22

He would have 66/22 rows of carrots

66/22 = 3

Thus,

He would have 3 rows of carrots

He would have 44/22 rows of onions

44/22 = 2

Hence, he would have 2 rows of onions

I NEED HELP...finding the slope-intercept form equation

Simora [160]

Answer: y=-13/12x-7

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope-intercept form, we first need to find the slope. To find the slope, you use the formula $m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$ . We use the two given points to find the slope.

$m=\frac{32-6}{-36-(-12)} =\frac{26}{-24} =-\frac{13}{12}$

Now that we have our slope, we can start filling out the slope-intercept form equation.

y=mx+b

y=-13/12x+b

Since we don't know the y-intercept, we can use one of the given points and solve for b.

6=(-13/12)(-12)+b [multiply (-13/12) and -12]

6=13+b [subtract both sides by 13]

b=-7

With the y-intercept, we can complete our equation.

y=-13/12x-7

Sonya planted a flower garden of tulips, daisies and lilies. She planted 2 times as many tulips as daises and 3 tomes as many da

RideAnS [48]

70 flowers were planted in all.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Tulips = t

Daises = d

Lilies = l

Total tulips planted = 42

She planted 2 times as many tulips as daises.

t=2d

Putting t=42

$42=2d\\2d=42$

Dividing both sides by 2

$\frac{2d}{2}=\frac{42}{2}\\d=21$

And 3 times as many daisies as lilies.

d=3l

Putting d=21

$21=3l\\3l=21$

Dividing both sides by 3

$\frac{3l}{3}=\frac{21}{3}\\l=7$

Total flowers planted = Tulips + Daisies + Lilies

Total flowers planted = 42 + 21 + 7 = 70

70 flowers were planted in all.
