1) The expressions are not equivalent. When you expand and multiply 2(x + 3) it becomes 2x + 6. This is not equal to 3x + 5
2) They are equivalent. Again, expand and multiply the second expression. 2(3n + 4) becomes 6n + 8. This makes both sides equal.
3) They are equivalent. In the parentheses, you are adding 3 y's and a 2. This gives you 3y + 2. Now add the additional 3y that follows the closed parentheses. You'll have 6y + 2. Now both sides are equivalent.
Graph this compound inequality 2.5 is equal to or less than x is equal to or less than 4.5
2.5 <= x < = 4.5
We graph this inequality using number line.
Here x lies between 2.5 and 4.5
While graphing, we start with closed circle at 2.5 because we have equal symbol .
Then shade till 4.5. Use closed circle at 4.5.
The graph is attached below.
<span>The slope of a line tells us how something changes over time. If we find the slope we can find the </span>rate of change<span> over that period </span>of change means.
A great website that could help you understand this is http://www.algebra-class.com/rate-of-change.html. But I can help you with this.
It could be solved by analyzing the questions and finding important words that stand out to you. 20=16+4 , 50=10+40. this is the way you find it
