Hello!

We are given the equation below.

x+40=3x

We want to get all of the variables on side. First of all let's subtract 40 from both sides.

x=3x-40

Now we rearrange our equation so the commutative property will work.

x=3x+(-40)
x=-40+3x

Now we subtract 3x from both sides.

-2x=-40

We divide both sides by -2.

x=20

Our answer is A) 20.

I hope this helps!

Answer with explanation:

It is given that

⇒ (x+40)°=(3x)°

Subtracting ,x from both sides

⇒3 x° -x° =40°

⇒ 2 x°=40°

Dividing by, 2 on both sides

x=20°

Option A:→20°

A species of beetles grows 32% every year. Suppose 100 beetles are released into a field. How many beetles will there be in 10 y

siniylev [52]

Given that a species of beetles grows 32% every year.

So growth rate is given by

r=32%= 0.32

Given that 100 beetles are released into a field.

So that means initial number of beetles P=100

Now we have to find about how many beetles will there be in 10 years.

To find that we need to setup growth formula which is given by
