Mathematics
1 answer:
Igoryamba3 years ago

Answer:

<h3>The answer is x = 5</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement

3x less than two times the sum of 2X and one is written as

2( 2x + 1) - 3x

the sum of 2 and 5 is written as

2 + 5

Equate the two statements

We have

2( 2x + 1) - 3x = 2+5

Expand

4x + 2 - 3x = 7

Simplify

4x - 3x = 7 - 2

We have the final answer as

<h3>x = 5</h3>

Hope this helps you

Colby worked three more hours on tuesday than he did on monday. on wednesday, he worked one hour more than twice the number of h
bulgar [2K]
Monday = X
Tuesday = X + 3 (Problem says three more hours than he worked on Monday)
Wednesday = 2x + 1
(Problem says he worked 1 hour more than two times the number of hours on monday) 
This side of the equation would be - 
X + (X +3) + (2X + 1) 
That's monday plus tuesday plus wednesday. 
Then you would set up the other side of the equation. 
This would be the total number of hours so it would be equal to monday, tuesday and wednesday combined. 
2 + (5x) 
Two hours more than five times the amount of Monday (X) 

Now we put this together to have an equation 
X + (X + 3) + (2x+ 1) = 2 + 5x 
Now we need to collect like terms
4x + 4 = 2 + 5x 
I just simplified the left side of the equation
Now I will subtract 4x from the left side to get all the variables on one side 
4 = 2 + x 
Now I subtract 2 to get the numbers both on one side
2 = x 
So, Colby worked 2 hours on Monday.

Which expression is equivalent to y times y times y times z times z times z times z? y cubed z Superscript 4 12xy (y z) Superscr
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

Option 1 - y cubed z superscript 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Expression y times y times y times z times z times z times z.

To find : Which expression is equivalent to given expression ?

Solution :

Re-write the expression as,

y \times y \times y \times z \times z \times z \times z

Write the number of time value repeat itself as the power,

y \times y \times y \times z \times z \times z \times z=y^3\times z^4

y \times y \times y \times z \times z \times z \times z=y^3z^4

or we can say that the expression is y cubed z superscript 4.

Therefore, option 1 is correct.
