Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3a + b

a = 1.4 - 2x

b = -0.2x + 1.7

3 ( 1.4 - 2x ) +  -0.2x + 1.7

= 4.2 - 6x - 0.2x + 1.7

= 4.2 + 1.7 - 6x - 0.2x ( by rearranging the like terms )

= <u><em>5.9 - 6.2 x</em></u>

hope this helps

plz mark as brainliest!!!!!!!!

What does 3 times 1/3 also what does 12 times 1/3 also what is 9 times 1/9
vladimir2022 [97]
When you set up 3 * (1/3), you're both multiplying and dividing by a 3. these two cancel out, and you're left with one. 3 *(1/3) is simply 1.

12 * (1/3), when you set it up, doesn't cancel out the same. multiply straight across the top (12 * 1), then divide by the bottom (3). 12/3 = 4, so 12*(1/3) is 4.

9 * (1/9) gives you the same result as the first one. the multiplied 9 and the divided 9 cancel out, and you're left with 1.

marusya05 [52]

let's say is 16% of "x", meaning "x" is the 100%.

we know "x" is 100% and 16% of it is 10, so

\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} x&100\\ 16&10 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{x}{16}=\cfrac{100}{10}\implies \cfrac{x}{16}=10\implies x = 160
