Answer:

$9a + 3b$

Is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

$5(3a + b) - 2(3a + b) \\ = 15a + 5b - 6a - 2b \\ = 9a + 3b$

$( - ) \times ( + ) = ( - ) \\$

That is why

$( - 2) \times b = - 2$

And

$( - 2) \times 3a = ( - 6)$

Sarah bought pencils and markers for school. She bought 3 times as many pencils as markers.

Serhud [2]

Answer:

Sarah bought 30 pencils

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let define p, as the number of pencils bought, and m, as the number of markers bought.

$0.15p+0.30m=7.50$

$p=3m$

3. Substitute p in the first equation to 3m since p=3m as defined.

$0.15(3m) + 0.30m=7.50\\0.45m+0.30m=7.50\\0.75m=7.50\\m=10$

plug m into equation p=3m to find the number of pencils bought

$p=3m=3(10)=30$

Find the domain for the rational function f of x equals quantity x plus 1 end quantity divided by quantity x minus 2 end quantit

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

(−∞, 2)∪(2, ∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

Domain is all the values that "x" can be

since finding all the values which "x" can be is too hard we will find out the values which "x" can't be- this means equating the denominator to "0" so that the function will be undetermined:

$f(x)=\frac{x+1}{x-2}$

since we need the denominator to be "0" we must use the opposite of (-2) which is "2" so we will substitute "2" in the place of "x" $f(2)=\frac{2+1}{2-2}$ - the function is now "undetermined" since nothing can be divided by 0 we need to write our answer in proper domain/range format
