Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So basically what you want to do is start with the distributive property.

-0.5(x+0.3) = 1.6x+0.9(x+4.8) would then equal -0.5x-0.15 = 1.6x+0.9x+4.32.

Then, add the matching terms on the right side (the x values) 1.6x+0.9x =2.5x

Your equation should the look like -0.5x-0.15 = 2.5x+4.32.

Next, add -0.5x to 2.5x giving you 3x

The equation will look like -0.15 = 3x+4.32

After that subtract 4.32 from -0.15 leaving you with -4.47=3x

Divide 3x from both sides

Your answer should be x= -1.49.

I hope this was helpful and not super confusing! Also if anything is incorrect let me know! :)

¿es cierto que si se suman los resultados de la tabla del con los de la tabla del 5 se obtienen los resultados del 7 ¿porque

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

Efectivamente, si se suman los resultados de la tabla del 2 con los de la tabla del 5 se obtienen los resultados de la tabla del 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Esto es así porque 7 puede formarse a través de diversas sumas (7+0, 6+1, 5+2 o 4+3). Por ende, en el caso de las tablas de multiplicaciones, decir, por ejemplo, 7 x 3, es igual a decir 5 x 3 + 2 x3, dado que 5 + 2 es igual a 7.

Entonces, siguiendo el ejemplo, dado que 7 x 3 es igual a 21, la suma de 5 x 3 igual a 15 y 2 x 3 igual a 6 es 21 (15 + 6), con lo cual la afirmación es correcta.

Any awnsers will give brainless

For the first, simply plug in the value of x given (x = 2) into the equation: $\left\frac{3}{4}x^2 + 5\right.|_{x=2} = \frac{3}{4}\left ( 2^2 \right )+5 = 8.$

So, 8 would be your answer.

For the second, the sum of x and 2 would be expressed as x + 2. Twice this sum would be written as 2(x+2). Finally, 8 less than twice that sum would be written as 2(x+2) - 8, which would be your expression.

For the last question, the coefficient refers to the number directly in front of the variable, x. So you need only to check what the x would simplify to in each equation and look for the expression where x has no coefficient (i.e., its coefficient is 1). For Hunter, the coefficient would be 15 (5 × 3x = 15x); for Michael, the coefficient would be 11 (6x + 5x = 11x); for Nate, the coefficient would be 1 (x = 1x); and for Spencer, the coefficient would be 2 (2x = 2x). Thus, Nate's expression has a coefficient of 1 when simplified.
