Simplify 3 (x+2)- x + 8

First you must distribute the 3 to the numbers inside the parentheses, which would be x and 2...

(3 * x) + (3 * 2) - x + 8

3x + 6 - x + 8

Now you must combine like terms. This means that first numbers with no variables go together. Then the numbers with the same variables must be combined...

no variable combination:

3x + 6 -x + 8

6 + 8 = 14

3x - x + 14

same variable combination:

3x - x + 14

3x - x = 2x

2x + 14

Hope this helped!

63degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

there are multiple ways to do this

for one, angle a = angle e (corresponding angles)

angle f + angle e = 180 degrees (angles on a straight line)

angle f = 180 degrees - angle e where angle e = angle a = 117degrees

so angle f = 63 degrees.

Which table shows the function y = -2x + 4? A) x y 0 4 1 2 2 0 B) x y 1 25 2 26 3 27 C) x y 0 -4 1 -2 2 0 D) x y -1 6 -2 8 -3 12
Svet_ta [14]
The answer is A.

From looking at the A graph, you must plug in the x variable into<span> y = -2x + 4.

y = -2(0) + 4 = 4
y = -2(1) + 4 = 2
y = -2(2) + 4 = 0</span>

Given x less than y, compare the following expressions and determine which is greater: 2x-y;2y-x. Explain your answer
sweet [91]

Let's form the difference of the two expressions and see what we can learn.

(2y -x) -(2x -y) = 2y -x -2x +y = 3y -3x = 3(y -x)

Since y > x, this is positive, so 2y -x is greater than 2x -y.
