Answer:

x = 9.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{4x-6}{4}$ = $\frac{2x+5}{3}$ ( cross- multiply )

3(4x - 6) = 4(2x + 5) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

12x - 18 = 8x + 20 ( subtract 8x from both sides )

4x - 18 = 20 ( add 18 to both sides )

4x = 38 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = $\frac{38}{4}$ = 9.5

Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to eliminate, the numbers must eliminate. If the second equation is multiplied by 3, then the 3 and the -3 can be eliminated. Since it is multiple choice, we can plug in x = 12 and y = 10 to see if they are correct. 12 + 30 = 42 and 24 - 10 = 14, so D is correct.

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

$2e)15-4x=10x+45$

Solve:

$15-4x=10x+45\\-4x-10x=45-15\\-14x=30\\ \boxed {x=-\dfrac{15}{7}}$ $3(x+1)=21$

Check:

$15-4 \left(-\dfrac{15}{7} \right)=10\left(-\dfrac{15}{7} \right)+45$

$15+\dfrac{60}{7} \right)=-\dfrac{150}{7} +45$

$\dfrac{210}{7} =30$

$30=30$

$3a) 3(x+1)=21$

Solve:

$3(x+1)=21\\3x+3=21\\3x=18\\x=6$

$3b) 2+3(x+1)=6x$

$2+3x+3=6x\\5=3x\\$

$x=\dfrac{5}{3}$

$3c) -2(2x-3)=-2$

Solve:

$-2(2x-3)=-2\\-4x+6=-2\\-4x=-8\\x=2$

The owner of a new restaurant wants to have seating for more than 75 people. There is currently a

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

$4m+3>75$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of people to be seated should be greater than 75.

Let $n$ be the number of people. So,

$n > 75$

Now, there is a single private chef's table that can seat 3 people.

Tables bought by the owner = $m$

Number of people seated in 1 table = 4

So, number of persons that can be seated in $m$ tables = $4\times m=4m$

Now, total number of persons that can be seated in these two types of tables is the sum of 3 and $4m$

Therefore, $n = 4m+3$

But, $n>75$

Hence, the inequality to show the situation is:

$4m+3>75$
