Answer:
x = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
3(2x-4) = 5x-1
6x + (-12) = 5x + (-1)
add -12 to both sides, subtract 5x from both sides. Simplify.
x=11
Answer:
I'm sorry I don't know the equation, but she walks 3 mph.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the answer is asking for speed, which needs both distance and time, so we also need both. Which is where the 9 mph is used. 9 mph means its a difference. b means biking mph, w means walking mph, sooo ----->>> b=w+9, and the difference in the 1st equation is 36, which means the first equation is 4 times larger than the b=w+9, so she walked 48 miles, as well as walked 12 miles in 4 hours. Divide then distances by 4, and you get 12 miles and 3 miles in one hour. Or 12 mph & 3 mph, which fits into 12=3+9. So she walks 3 miles per hour.
6 - (-2) - 3(-5) = (6 + 2) + 15 = 8 + 15 = 23
Your answer is D. the last one :)
Answer:
14a + 20
Step-by-step explanation:
8(a + 2) + 2(2 + 3a)
expand the bracket
8a + (8*2) + (2*2) + (2*3a)
8a + 16 + 4 + 6a
bring like terms together
8a + 6a + 16 + 4
14a + 20
Answer:
Emily: 13, Peter: 9, Joshua: 18
Step-by-step explanation:
Emily = x
Peter = Emily - 4 = x - 4
Joshua = 2(Peter) = 2(x - 4)
Total = 40 = Emily + Peter + Joshua = (x) + (x - 4) + 2(x - 4)
40 = 2x - 4 + 2x -8
40 = 4x - 4 - 8
40 = 4x - 12
52 = 4x
x = 13
Emily = 13
Peter = 13 - 4 = 9
Joshua = 2(13 - 4) = 2(9) = 18
13 + 9 +18 = 40
