Answer:
8x + 12
Step-by-step explanation:
3(x + 4) + 5x
3x + 12 + 5x
8x + 12
Answer:
15) x=62
14) 19
Step-by-step explanation:
1) name the variables:
- amount in account 1 "a"
- amount in account 2 "b"
2) trtanslate the statements into equations:
<span>- the
difference between account 1 and account 2 is $100.
=> a - b = 100
- if she uses 3/8 of
account 1 and 7/8 of account 2, Dawn will have a down payment of $2,000.
=> (3/8)a + (7/8)b = 2000
3) solve the system of equations
(1) a - b = 100
(2) (3/8)a + (7/8b) = 2000
Steps:
- multiply equation (1) by 7 and equaton (2) by 8
=>
(1) 7a - 7b = 700
(2) 3a + 7b = 16,000
- add the two equations
=>
7a + 3a - 7b + 7b = 700 + 16,000
- combine like terms:
10a = 16,700
- divide by 10:
a = 16,700 / 10 = 1670
- use equation (1) to find b:
a - b = 100 => b = a - 100 = 1670 - 100 = 1570
Answer: Dawn has $ 1670 in account 1 and
$ 1570 in account 2.

Ans: Option A
Explanation:
Let's solve it smartly!
Given expression:

--- (A)
Factors: (x+p)(x+q)
Condition: c<0
Now let us expand (x+p)(x+q):
=>

--- (B)
By comparing (B) with (A), we can say that:
pq = c --- (C)
Now, as the condition says, c<0, it means either p or q is negative. Both cannot be positive or both cannot be negative.
1) If p>0, q>0, it means c>0 since (+p)(+q) = (+c)(according to equation (C)). Condition is not met.
Hence, option B and D are wrong.
2) If p<0, q<0 it means c>=0 since (-p)(-q) = (+c)(according to equation (C)). Condition is not met.
Hence option C is out as well.
We are left with Option A:p<0, q>0 it means c<0 since (-p)(+q) = (-c)(according to equation (C)).
Condition is MET!
Hence,
Ans: Option A: p= -3, q= 7
