Hey!

Let's start writing this problem.
-2x+7=13x-5
Subtract 7 from both sides.
-2x+7-7=13x-5-7
-2x=13x-12
Subtract 13x from both sides.
-2x-13x=13x-12-13x
-15x=-12
Divide both sides by -15.
\frac{-15x}{-15}=\frac{-12}{-15}
x=\frac{4}{5}

Let me know if you have any questions regarding this problem!
Thanks!

<span>-2x+7=13x-5
13x + 2x = 7 + 5
15x = 12
    x = 12/15

URGENT PLEASE HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST TO CORRECT ANSWER ABC factory brought a pile of coal. If the factory burns 1500 kilogram
wolverine [178]

Solving a system of equations, we will see that there are 6000 kg of coal on the pile.

<h3>How many kilograms of coal are in the pile of coal?</h3>

Let's say that there are N kilograms of coal, and it is planned to burn it totally in D days, these are our variables.

We know that:

  • If the factory burns 1500 kilograms per day, it will finish burning the coal one day ahead of planned.
  • If it burns 1000 kilograms per day, it will take an additional day than planned.

Then we can write the system of equations:

(1500)*(D - 1) = N

(1000)*(D + 1) = N

Because N is already isolated in both sides, we can write this as:

(1500)*(D - 1) = N = (1000)*(D + 1)

Then we can solve for D:

(1500)*(D - 1) =  (1000)*(D + 1)

1500*D - 1500 = 1000*D + 1000

500*D = 2500

D = 2500/500 = 5

Now that we know the value of D, we can find N by replacing it in one of the two equations:

(1500)*(D - 1) = N

(1500)*(5 - 1) = N

(1500)*4= N = 6000

This means that there are 6000 kilograms of coal on the pile.

Option C: -3 is the average rate of change between x=-1 and x=1

Explanation:

The formula to determine the average rate of change is given by

Average rate of change = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We need to find the average rate of change between x=-1 and x=1

Thus, from the table, we have,

x_1=-1 , y_1=5

x_2=1 , y_2=-1

Thus, substituting these values in the formula, we get,

Average rate of change = \frac{-1-5}{1+1}

                                        =\frac{-6}{2}

                                        =-3

Thus, the average rate of change between x=-1 and x=1 is -3.

Hence, Option C is the correct answer.
