Answer:
-3(-3x + 4) = 9x - 12
Step-by-step explanation:
-3( Ax + 4) = 9x - 12
-3Ax -12 = 9x - 12
Equating coefficients of x terms on both sides :
-3A = 9
A = -3
Therefore, -3(-3x + 4) = 9x - 12
Answer:
You could just replace all the given possible values of k in the inequality and see which ones are solutions, but let's solve this in a more interesting way:
First, remember how the absolute value works:
IxI = x if x ≥ 0
IxI = -x if x ≤ 0
Then if we have something like:
IxI < B
We can rewrite this as
-B < x < B
Now let's answer the question, here we have the inequality:
I-k -2I < 18
Then we can rewrite this as:
-18 < (-k - 2) < 18
Now let's isolate k:
first, we can add 2 in the 3 parts of the inequality:
-18 + 2 < -k - 2 + 2 < 18 + 2
-16 < -k < 20
Now we can multiply all sides by -1, remember that this also changes the direction of the signs, then:
-1*-16 > -1*-k > -1*20
16 > k > -20
Then k can be any value between these two limits.
So the correct options (from the given ones) are:
k = -16
k = -8
k = 0
Answer:
First score is 90
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A represent the first score
Let B represent the second score
Let C represent the third score
A+B+C=217 equation 1
If the first score A is 30 points more than the second,B
A=B-30 equation 2
Lastly,sum of A&B is 16 more than 2C
A+B=2C+16 equation 3
From equation 1
A+B=217-C equation 4
substitute for A+B in equation 3
217-C=2C+16
217-16=2C+C
201=3C
C=67
substituting C in equation 4
A+B=217-67
A+B=150
if the first score more than the first,then the first 90 while second 60 since A+B=150
