Answer:

option B ( 4x + 8 )

Step-by-step explanation:

4(x + 2) represents the area of the rectangle

We have to solve the expression by distributive property

distributive law is represented by [ a(x+y) = ax + ay ]

4(x+2) = 4 (x) + 4 × 2

= 4x + 8

Therefore, option B ( 4x + 8 ) will be the answer.

Wally chin, the owner of an exxon mobil station, bought a used ford pickup truck, paying $1,900 as a down payment. He still owes

My name is Ann [436]

Down payment of the ford pickup truck = $1,900.

It is said that down payment amount $1,900 owes 75% of the selling price.

Therefore, 100-75 = 25% is the downpayment of total Selling price.

Let is assume selling price is $x.

According to problem,

25% of the selling price equals down payment amount $1,900.

Let us convert above statement into an equation.

25% of x is 1,900.

That is 25% x = 1,900.

25% could be written as 25/100 or 0.25.

So, the above equation would become

0.25x = 1,900.

Dividing both sides by 0.25, we get

0.75x/0.25 = 1,900/0.25

x=7600

So, the selling price would be $7600.

Tell whether a triangle can have sides with the

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

$3x+2 \ne x^2 \ne 2x$ for $x = 4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Shape: Triangle

Dimension: 3x + 2, x^2 and 2x

$x = 4$

Required

Determine if it has equal sides

To do this, we simply substitute 4 for x in the given dimensions

3x + 2

$3x + 2 = 3 * 4 + 2$

$3x + 2 = 12 + 2$

$3x + 2 = 14$

x^2

$x^2 = 4^2$

$x^2 = 16$

2x

$2x = 2 * 4$

$2x = 8$

$3x+2 \ne x^2 \ne 2x$ for $x = 4$

Graph and write solution: 2x + 1 = y -4x + 6y = -10

PIT_PIT [208]

The graph is shown in figure below

The Solution Set is (-2,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to graph the equations and writ the solution.

For graphing we need to find the values of x and y.

For that, we need to solve the given equations:

$2x + 1 = y\\-4x + 6y = -10$

Let:

$2x + 1 = y\,\,\,eq(1)\\-4x + 6y = -10\,\,\,eq(2)$

We can solve this by using Substitution Method.

Putting value of y of eq(1) into eq(2) and finding value of x:

$2x + 1 = y\,\,\,eq(1)\\-4x+6(2x+1)=-10\\-4x+12x+6=-10\\8x+6=-10\\8x=-10-6\\8x=-16\\x=-16/8\\x=-2$

So, value of x = -2

Now put value of x in eq(1) to find value of y:

$2x + 1 = y\\2(-2)+1=y\\-4+1=y\\y=-3$

So, value of y = -3

Plotting on graph: x=-2 and y = -3

The graph is shown in figure below

The Solution Set is (-2,-3)
