2(3x+7) it is the correct answer
Answer:
17+5=17+5
No matter what order you put them it will always be the same
<u>Answer:</u>
Equation t = 5c + 6d represents total cost t of c large pizzas and d large one-topping pizzas
<u>Solution:</u>
Given that
Cost of large pizza = $5 each
Cost of large one-topping pizza = $6 each
Need to write the equation that represents total cost t of c large pizzas and d large one topping pizzas.
From given information
Cost of 1 large pizza = 5
So cost of c large pizzas = c x 5 = 5c
Cost of 1 large one-topping pizza = 6
So cost of d large one-topping pizzas =d x 6 = 6d
<em>Total cost t = cost of c large pizzas + cost of d large one-topping pizzas </em>
=> t = 5c + 6d
Hence equation t = 5c + 6d represents total cost t of c large pizzas and d large one-topping pizzas.
Start off by distributing the numbers into the parentheses:
5(-3x - 2) - (x - 3) = -4(4x + 5) + 13
-15x - 10 - (x - 3) = -16x - 20 + 13
(Note: It's super important to be careful when opening up negative parentheses! -(x-3) is not just - x - 3, it is actually -x + 3 since the negative is distributed in every number!)
-15x - 10 - x + 3 = -16x - 20 + 13
-16x - 7 = -16x - 7
-16x = -16x
0 = 0
There is an infinite number of solutions in this equation.
(When you get 0=0 when solving for a variable, that means that said variable will have infinite solutions, that is, any number plugged into the equation will work)
I think this is the answer :)
