9d - 5 = 4d + 35
9d (-4d) - 5 (+5) = 4d (-4d) + 35 (+5)
5d = 40
5d/5 = 40/5
d = 8
hope this helps
The 3rd selection is appropriate.
.. 5b +1 = a = 3b +5
by the transitive property of equality,
.. 5b +1 = 3b +5
Answer:
it should be A if not I'm so so sry
Let x = speed and y = distance
y = x * 45
y = (x - 4) * 70
45x = 70x - 280
-25x = -280
x = 11.2
Put it back into the first equation:
y = 11.2 x 45
y = 504miles
Hope this helps! Any questions let me know :)
Solve each of the equations independently, then determine if the are continuous or discontinuous.
15≥-3x [start here]
-5≤x [divide both sides by (-3). *Dividing by a negative number means the direction of the sign changes!]
x≥-5 [just turned around for analysis]
Next equation:
2/3x≥-2 [start here]
x≥-2(3/2) [multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal, 3/2)
x≥-3
So, (according to the first equation) all values of x must be greater than, or equal to -5.
(According to the second equation) all values of x must be greater than, or equal to -3.
So, when graphed on a number line, both equations graph in the same direction, so they are continuous.
