Answer:
x=-5 or x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
when multiplying anything by 0, the answer will be zero
In this case, one of the two factors has to be equal to 0
start by splitting into
(x+5) = 0
solve the equation
subtract 5 from both sides
x = -5
now, repeat for the other binomial
x-3 = 0
add 3 to both sides
x=3
Answer:
c., d., f
Step-by-step explanation:
"elana walked 12 miles"
That is 12.
"then she walked 1/4 that distance"
That is 1/4 of 12 miles, so it is 1/4 * 12
She walked altogether
12 + 1/4 * 12 = 12 + 3 = 15
She walked altogether 15 miles.
a.12+1/4 = 12.25 which is not 15
b.12×1/4 = 3 which is not 15
c.12+1/4×12 = 12 + 3 = 15 which is correct
d.12(1+ 1/4) = 12(1.25) = 15 which is correct
e.12×3/4 = 9 which is not 15
f.12×5/4 = 15 which is correct
Answer: c., d., f
Answer:
10 classes
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equations in the question
Dance World: y = 15x
Toe Tappers: y = 25 + 12.5x
Where,
x = number of classes
Equate the total cost at both dance studios
15x = 25 + 12.5x
Collect like terms
15x - 12.5x = 25
2.5x = 25
Divide both sides by 2.5
2.5x / 2.5 = 25 / 2.5
x = 10 classes
x = number of classes = 10
