Hey there
9a+3+2a+10
You have to collect like terms
To simplify you have to add 9a and 2a. Then 3 and 10
9a+2a= 11a
10+3= 13
The answer is 11a+13
hope this helps <span />
Answer:
B. (-2,-4)
Explanation
Given equations:
y = 3x + 2
y = -2x - 8
Solving both equations will yield the values of x and y;
Solution:
y = 3x + 2 ----- (i)
y = -2x - 8 ------ (ii)
Using substitution method, input equation i, into ii
3x + 2 = -2x - 8
Collect like terms and solve;
3x + 2x = -8 -2
5x = -10
x = -2
Then put x = -2 into i, to find y
y = (-2 x 3) + 2
y = -6 + 2 = -4
So, the solution of the equation is B. (-2,-4)
Answer:
It took Pedro <em>3.81 hours</em> to reach the lake.
Step-by-step explanation:
Time taken by Mike to hike a lake = 4.5 hours
Average rate of Mike while hiking the lake = 
Formula for distance can be seen as:
Distance traveled by Mike = 
Rate of Pedro while hiking the same distance = 
Given that, Pedro also travels the same distance.
And we have to find the Time.
It took Pedro <em>3.81 hours</em> to reach the lake.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation solved by Morgan, Dakota and Taylor expressed as 7x+5x+1=73, to get the value of x, the valid steps are as shown;
7x+5x+1=73
take the sum of 7x and 5x
12x+ 1 = 73
subtract 1 from both sides
12x+1-1 = 73-1
12x = 72
Divide both sides by 12
12x/12 = 72/12
x = 6
Based on the calculation above, the students with invalid first step is Dakota.
<em>Dakota added 5x with 1 to get 6x which is an invalid step because 1 is not attached to a variable x. A function cannot be added to a constant hence making his first step invalid.</em>
