s2008m [1.1K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

  • 1. 7(y + 3) = 5y+8: <u>one solution</u>

  • 2. 10 + 6x= 2(5+3x): <u>infinite solutions</u>

  • 3. 3x + 5 - x=2x + 7: <u>no solutions</u>

  • 4. 4x - 4 = 2x + 8: <u>one solution.</u>

Explanation:

<u>1. 7(y+3)=5y+8</u>

<u></u>

a)  Distributive property of multiplication over addtion:

  • 7y + 21 = 5y + 8

b) Subtraction property of equalities:

  • 7y - 5y = 8 - 21

c) Combine like terms:

  • 2y = - 13

d) Division property of division:

  • y = - 13/2

e) Conclusion: the equation has one solution.

<u>2. 10 + 6x = 2(5+3x)</u>

a) Distributive property of multiplication over addition:

  • 10 + 6x = 10 + 6x

b) Subtraction property of equality:

  • 6x - 6x = 10 - 10

c) Simplify (combine like terms)

  • 0 = 0

That is an identity, i.e. that is always true, no matter the value of x.

d) Conclusion: the equation has infinite solutions.

<u>3. 3x + 5 - x = 2x + 7</u>

a) Combine like terms:

  • 2x + 5 = 2x + 7

b) Subtraction property of equalities:

  • 2x - 2x = 7 - 5

c) Combine like terms (simplify)

  • 0 = 2

That is always false, no matter the values of x.

d) Conclusion: the equation does not have any solutions.

<u>4. 4x - 4 = 2x + 8</u>

<u></u>

a) Subtraction property of equality

  • 4x - 2x - 4 = 2x - 2x + 8

b) Combine like terms

  • 2x - 4 = 8

c) Addtiion property of equalities:

  • 2x = 8 + 4

d) Combine like terms (simplify)

  • 2x = 12

e) Division property of equalities:

  • x = 6

f) Conclusion: the equation has one solution

Haynes High School chartered buses for 60 students to go on a field trip. Valley High School chartered buses for 80 students.
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer: $20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'x' be the cost of a ticket at Haynes

Let 'y' be the cost of a ticket at Valley

Since the total cost from both schools are the same, we can write it as:

60x=80y

Since the cost of tickets at Valley was $5 less than Haynes, we can write it as:

y=x-5

Now we have two equations, we can use to substitute into the other expression:

60x=80y

60x=80(x-5) we substitute y in this equation with the other equation

60x=80x-400

-20x =-400

x = 20

Therefore the cost of the ticket at Haynes is $20 and the cost of the ticket at Valley is $15.

What is the average rate of change of the function f(x) = 5x ^ 2 + 20x between x = 0 and x = 0.5
Vitek1552 [10]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  22.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change on the interval [a, b] is the ratio ...

  (f(b) -f(x))/(b -a)

For your function and interval, it is ...

  (f(0.5) -f(0))/(0.5 -0)

Since f(0) = 0, this reduces to ...

  average rate of change = 2·f(0.5) = 2(5(0.5)² +20(0.5)) = 2(5/4 +10)

  average rate of change = 22.5
