X= # students who got lower grades
2x+3= # students with grade A

STEP 1:
Add the two sets above equal to 24.

x + (2x + 3)= 24
combine like terms

3x + 3= 24
subtract 3 from both sides

3x= 21
divide both sides by 3

x= 7 (# students lower than A)


STEP 2:
substitute x value from step 1 to find # grade A students

=2x + 3
=2(7) + 3
=14 + 3
=17 (# grade A students)


CHECK:
x + (2x + 3)= 24
7 + 2(7) + 3= 24
7 + 14 + 3= 24
24= 24


ANSWER: There were 17 students with grade A.

Hope this helps! :)

How do u combine like terms
velikii [3]
If the equation is let's say 3x+ 7 +4x to combine like terms, you would take 3x and 4x since they both have x. You wouldn't take the 7 since it doesn't have and x like the other numbers. 3x +4x = 7x so your new equation would be 7x + 7.

Before you factor you should check what two things?
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

You can check your factoring by multiplying them all out to see if you get the original expression. If you do, your factoring is correct; otherwise, you might want to try again

Evaluate the expression for = −3 and = 5.<br><br> r^{-4} s^2
Butoxors [25]
If r = -3 and s = 5:
(r^-4)(s^2) = (-3^-4)(5^2) = (1/81)(25) = 25/81

If r = 5 and s = -3:
(r^-4)(s^2) = (5^-4)(3^2) = (1/625)(9) = 9/625

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

.60

Step-by-step explanation:

The way you do this is by getting the denominator to 100
