What is the solution to the equation 2(x - 3) = 2x + 5

Hello there!

2(x - 3) = 2x + 5

Let's start by using the distributive property for the left side.

(2)(x) + (2)(-3) = 2x + 5

2x - 6 = 2x + 5

Then we need to add 6 to both sides

2x - 6 + 6 = 2x + 5 + 6

2x = 2x + 11

We need to transfer 2x on the left side, we gonna do that by subtracting 2x from both sides

2x - 2x = 2x + 11 - 2x

0 = 11

Thus,

There are no solutions.

I hope this helps!

Good luck with your career!

1. Expand

2x - 6 = 2x + 5

2. Cancel 2x on both sides

-6 = 5

3. Simplify

-6 + 5 = -1

Final Answer:

-1

Two kilos of taronges and three kilos of mandarins cost 11.50 euros. Three kilos of taronges and two of mandarins cost 11 euros.
Illusion [34]

Answer:

Hence the pricing for each product will be taronges with 2 euros and mandarins with 2.5 euros.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

2 kg of taronges and 3 kg mandarins cost 11.5 euros

3kg taronges and 2 kg mandarins cost 11 euros

To Find:

Price for each product

Solution:

<em>Consider </em>

<em>Taronges =x euros</em>

<em>Mandarins=y euros</em>

So by given condition,

2x+3y=11.5  ....................equation(1)

and 3x+2y=11 ..............equation (2)

So , using substitution method,

3x=11-2y

x=11-2y/3 .......equation (3)

Using above value in equation(1) we get ,

2(11-2y)/3+3y=11.5

y=(11.5*3-22)/5)

y=2.5 euros

Using above value in equation(3)  we get ,

x=(11-2y)/3

x=(11-2*2.5)/3

x=(11-5)/3

x=2 euros

Suppose Brandi buys a CD for $1000 that earns 3% APR and is compounded
Dovator [93]

Answer:

$1,061.76

Step-by-step explanation:

(refer to attached handout)

For compound interest, you are given:

A = ? (need to find)

P = $1000

r = 3% = 0.03

n = compounded monthly = 12 times per year

t = 2 years

(substituting this into the formula)

A = P [  1 + (r/n) ] ^(nt)

A = 1000 [  1 + (0.03/12) ] ^[(12)(2)]

A = 1000 [  1 + 0.0025 ] ^24

A = 1000 [  1.0025 ] ^24

A = 1,061.76

What is a derivative
S_A_V [24]
In mathematics, the derivative is a way to represent rate of change, that is - the amount by which a function is changing at one given point. For functions that act on the real numbers, it is the slope of the tangent line at a point on a graph.
