Answer:
x = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
5(x-2)+3x-4 = -38
=> 5x-10+3x-4 = -38
=> 5x+3x-10-4 = -38
=> 8x-14 = -38
=> 8x = -38+14
=> 8x = -24
=> x = -24/8
=> x = -3
Answer:
a) The variable, M represents the amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has
b) The set equation is 11 + 2 = 3 × M - 2
c) 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The given parameters are;
The number of fishes in Ms. Cruz's tank = 11 fishes
The number of fishes Ms, Cruz has after buying two more fishes = 3 × The amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has - 2 fishes
a) Let the variable, M represent the amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has
b) The set up equation is as follows;
11 + 2 = 3 × M - 2
c) From the equation, 11 + 2 = 3 × M - 2, we have;
13 = 3·M - 2
3·M = 13 + 2 = 15
3·M = 15
M = 15/3 = 5
M = 5
The number of fishes Ms. Montesinos has is 17 fishes
Answer:
Option A, 9b + 10s is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
The complete question is
At cycle and sport customers can rent bikes, electric scooters, kayaks, canoes, or paddleboards by the hour. Ari is renting a bi ke, and meg is renting an electric scooter. Which expression represents the total cost for Ari to rent a bike for b hours and Meg to rent a scooter for s hours (Please answer ASAP) A. 9b + 10s B. 9 + 10 C. (9+b) + (10 + s) D. 9 + 10 x b + s
Solution
The price of renting a bike for one hour is $9
The price of renting a scooter for one hour is $10
Given -
Ari rents a bike for b hours and Meg rents a scooter for s hours
Total cost of renting a bike is 9 * b
Total cost of renting a scooter is 10* s
The total cost of renting both the bike and scooter is
9b + 10s
Hence, option A is correct
Answer:
The length would be 32 and the width would be 10
Step-by-step explanation:
For the purpose of this, we'll set the width as x. We can then define the length as x + 22 since we know it is 22 ft longer than the width. Now we can use those along with the perimeter formula to solve for the width.
P = 2l + 2w
84 = 2(x + 22) + 2(x)
84 = 2x + 44 + 2x
84 = 4x + 44
40 = 4x
10 = x
Now since we know that the width is 10ft, we can add 22ft to it to get the length, which would be 32ft.
