Answer: Original expression: 2x - 11 + 4x + 7 + 3(x-4)
Simplified: 9x - 16
Step-by-step explanation:
2x - 11 + 4x + 7 + 3(x-4) becomes 2x - 11 + 4x + 7 + 3x -12
Group like terms, then combine to simplify:
2x + 4x + 3x -11 + 7 - 12
2x + 4x + 3x = 9x
-11 -12 + 7 = =23+7= -16
Simplified expression: 9x - 16
Please correct me if im wrong but i think the answer is option 2
Answer:
which area is shaded the circle or the extra space
Step-by-step explanation:
8 boys, x girls, 4 pencils each, total number of pencils 52.
The equation can be 4(8+x) = 52
So lets solve:
4(8+x)=52
Divide 4 on both sides:
8 + x=52 / 4
8 + x = 13
Subtract on both sides:
x = 13 - 8
x = 5
There are 5 girls in the class.
Now lets solve to double check:
4(8+5)=52
4(13)=52
52 = 52
Yes!
This means that there are 5 girls in the class.
I hope this helps! :)
