Answer:

no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

−3(x + 3) = −3(x + 1) − 5.

Distribute

-3x-9 = -3x-3-5

Combine like terms

-3x-9  =-3x-8

Add 3x to each side

-3x-9+3x = -3x-8+3x

-9 = -8

This is never true so there is no solution

Answer:

x=-7/9

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this equation we would consider the bracket first according to BODMAS rule

B ..... Bracket open

O........ Of

D,............. Division

M............. Multiplication

A.............. Addition

S............. Subtraction

So, from the question

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

-3x -9 = 3x + 3 - 5

Collecting like terms

-3x -3x = 3-5+9

-9x= 7

Dividing both sides by -9

-9x/-9= 7/-9

x=-7/9

8 + 8r = 3 + 3r can anyone can help me out​
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:r = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

8+8r-(3+3r)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

8r-(3r+3)+8=0

We get rid of parentheses

8r-3r-3+8=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

5r+5=0

We move all terms containing r to the left, all other terms to the right

5r=-5

r=-5/5

r=-1

Hope this helps

hammer [34]

Answer:

Sally has been measuring the tree for 4 months

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct question is as follows;

Sally has been measuring the tree in her yard for a science project. The tree has grown 1/2 of an inch each month and grown a total of 2 inches taller. How many months has Sally been measuring this tree?

.........................................................................................

Solution;

The tree has grown 1/2 of an inch each month and has grown a total of 2 inch taller.

We now need to know the number of months in which the measuring has been taking place.

To know the number of months, we simply need to divide the change in height which is 2 inch by the individual month growth rate which is 1/2 inch

So mathematically, that would be 2/1/2 = 2 * 2 = 4 months

I need a bit of help here.

Answer:

Beginning in the 6th century BC with the Pythagoreans, the Ancient Greeks began a systematic study of mathematics as a subject in its own right with Greek mathematics. Around 300 BC, Euclid introduced the axiomatic method still used in mathematics today, consisting of definition, axiom, theorem, and proof.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first recorded zero appeared in Mesopotamia around 3 B.C. The Mayans invented it independently circa 4 A.D. It was later devised in India in the mid-fifth century, spread to Cambodia near the end of the seventh century, and into China and the Islamic countries at the end of the eighth.
