Answer:
6x^2 - 3x
Step-by-step explanation:
3x (2x-1)
multiply 3x by 2x -> 6x^2
multiply 3x by -1 -> -3x
Her sister invited 22 guests. What you have to do to solve this problem is subtract 41-19. We have to do this because Rayliegh invited 19 more people than her sister, but invited a total of 41 people herself. So, to figure out how many people her sister invited we have to know that Rayliegh invited 19 more people and we have to subtract that from the total number she invited to get how many people her sister invited: 22 guests. Can you make me brainliest?
Answer:
92 attendees had activity cards
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of students with activity cards. Then 130-x is the number without, and the total revenue is ...
7x +10(130 -x) = 1024
7x +1300 -10x = 1024 . . . . eliminate parentheses
-3x = -276 . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms; subtract 1300
x = 92 . . . . . . divide by 3
92 students with activity cards attended the dance.

<em>Comment on the solution</em>
Often, you will see such a problem solved using two equations. For example, they might be ...
Let 'a' represent the number with an activity card; 'w' the number without. Then ...
- a+w = 130 . . . . the total number of students
- 7a +10w = 1024 . . . . the revenue from ticket sales
The problem statement asks for the value of 'a', so you want to eliminate w from these equations. You can do that using substitution. Using the first equation to write an expression for w, you have ...
w = 130-a
and making the substitution into the second equation gives ...
7a +10(130 -a) = 1024
This should look a lot like the equation we used above. There, we skipped the extra variable and went straight to the single equation we needed to solve.
Treat the 'more than or equal to' sign as a '=' then work it out like an ordinary algebraic equation.
2(4x-3) = -3(3x)+5x
8x-6 = -9x+5x
-6 = -9x+5x-8x
-6 = -12x
-6/-12 = x
1/2 = x
Then swap the '=' back for the other sign. This works for all of the '<' type signs
