Answer:
Option D.) x + 2x − 3 = 26
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ------> the length of Nate's car
y ------> the length of Maya's car
we know that
x+y=26 -----> equation A
y=2x-3 ----> equation B
substitute equation B in equation A and solve for x
x+(2x-3)=26
3x=26+3
x=29/3 in
Find the value of y
y=2(29/3)-3
y=(58/3)-3
y= 49/3 in
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You do this by figuring out the amounts of pure fruit juice in all.
Explanation:
Mixture:
17 gal 30% contains:
17
⋅
30
100
=
5.10
gal pure juice
From Brand B:
8 gal 48% contains:
8
⋅
48
100
=
3.84
gal pure juice
So
5.10
−
3.84
=
1.26
gal came from 9 gal of brand A
So the percentage of A is:
1.26
9
⋅
100
=
14
%
pure juice.

answer is 2+ 1/4x + 1 the simplest form is x= -3/4 or -0.75
Step-by-step explanation:
to compare them, we should all bring to the same denominator.
the lcm (lowest common multiplier) is the that denominator.
let's use the approach of the prime factors :
3 : 3
5 : 5
32 : 2×2×2×2×2
24 : 2×2×2×3
the lcm is the combination of the longest "streaks" of the prime factors.
so,
2×2×2×2×2 × 3 × 5 = 32×15 = 480
2/-3 = -2/3 = -320/480 (as 3×160 = 480)
-4/5 = -4×96 / 5×96 = -384/480 (as 5×96 = 480)
21/-32 = -21/32 = -315/480 (as 32×15 = 480)
-15/24 = -15×20 / 24×20 = -300/480 (24×20 = 480)
as
-384/480 < -320/480 < -315/480 < -300/480
we can say
-4/5 < -2/3 < -21/32 < -15/24
