Step-by-step explanation:
Well, Let's find out!
Gloria says,
2(3x+6)-9x=3*4
By using distributive law
6x+12-9x=12
12-3x=12
-3x=12-12
-3x=0
x=0/-3
So she is not correct
Answer:
32 ounces of fruits
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Number of distinct fruits purcahed = 6
Number of ounces of each fruit = 5 1/3
The total ounces of fruits purchased :
(Number of distinct fruits purchased * Number of ounces of each fruit)
6 * 5 1/3 = 6 * 16/3
6 * 16/3 = (16 * 6) / 3 = 96 /3 = 32 ounces of fruits.
Answer:
x = -2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write equation
-6.2 - 12.6x = 5.8 - 7.8x
Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>
<u>Add 12.6x on both sides:</u> -6.2 = 5.8 + 4.8x
<u>Subtract 5.8 on both sides:</u> -12 = 4.8x
<u>Divide both sides by 4.8:</u> x = -2.5
Step 3: Check
<em>Plug in x to verify if it's a solution.</em>
-6.2 - 12.6(-2.5) = 5.8 - 7.8(-2.5)
-6.2 + 31.5 = 5.8 + 19.5
25.3 = 25.3
Answer:
25 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the amount of time, in minutes, be x.
For Container A, we can write:
200 + 6x [since it has 200 and is being filled with 6 per minute]
For Container B, we can write:
500 - 6x [since it has 500 and is being drained with 6 per minute]
To find, we equate them and solve for x:

<em>So, in 25 minutes (m), the two containers will have same amount of water</em>
