Answer:

The correct option is C) -16

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided equation.

7x-2(x + 1) = 6x + 14  

Open the parentheses

7x-2x -2 = 6x + 14  

Add the like terms.

5x -2 = 6x + 14  

Subtract 5x from both the sides.

-2 = x + 14  

Subtract 14 to the both sides.

x=-16  

Hence, the correct option is C) -16

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

In each case you divide top and bottom by the GCF.

A. The GCF of 45 and 56 is 1.

so the answer is 45/56.

B. 15/16 (GCF = 1)

C. Here the GCF is 5 so the answer is (35/5) / (80/5)

= 7/16.

D. 5/6 (GCF is 4).

In the function f(x) = -720h + 10080, the "h" is the number of hours the pool has been draining.  Explain in your words how much
Nataly [62]

f(x) = -720h + 10080

10080 is the total amount of water in the pool, 720 is the amount of water you lose each hour.

"h" is the number of hours the pool has been draining, and since you know the pool has been draining for 12 hours, you can plug in 12 for "h".


f(x) = -720h + 10080

f(x) = -720(12) + 10080

f(x) = -8640 + 10080

f(x) = 1440


After 12 hours of draining, 1440 is the amount of water left in the pool. (I don't know the units [ex: gallons, etc.])

Find the area of a circle circumscribed about an equilateral triangle whose side is 18 inches long
beks73 [17]

let's recall that an equilateral triangle has all interior angles of 60°.

Check the picture below.

so as you can see, 2√3 = x = r, namely the radius of the circle.

\bf \textit{area of a circle}\\\\ A=\pi r^2\qquad \qquad \implies A=\pi (2\sqrt{3})^2\implies A=\pi (2^2)(\sqrt{3})^2\implies A=12\pi

Solve the following equation. Then place the correct answer in the box provided. Answer in terms of a mixed number. 7(2x + 6) =
BabaBlast [244]
Hey there! :D

7(2x+6)=1

Use the distributive property. Multiply each number by each other.

7*2x= 14x  7*6= 42

14x+42=1

Subtract 42 on both sides. 

14x= -41

Divide both sides by 14. 

We know that 14 goes into -41 almost three times.

14*3= 42 (there is one left over)

-2 13/14 (we just need one more part of 14) 

That is the simplified number.

I hope this helps!
