Distribute to 5p + 15 + 9 = 3p - 6 + 6
Then .. 5p + 24 = 3p
24 = -2p
-12 = p

Answer:

p = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

5(p + 3) + 9 = 3(p - 2) + 6 Use distributive property

5p + 15 + 9 = 3p - 6 + 6 Add like terms

5p + 24 = 3p Subtract 5p from both sides to get the p terms on one side

24 = -2p Divide by 2 to get -p

12 = -p Divide by -1 to get p

-12 = p

Line segment AB was dilated to create line segment A'B'

MrMuchimi

Answer:

13.6

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of the segment AQ is related to the measure of the segment A'Q by the dilation factor as follows:

dilation factor = A'Q/AQ

AQ = A'Q/dilation factor

Replacing with data:

AQ = 2.4/0.15 = 16

Then, the distance between points A and A' is

x = 16 - 2.4 = 13.6

The sum of three numbers is 113 . The second number is 3 times the third. The first number is 7 less than the third . What are t

OLga [1]

Number 1 = 17
number 2 = 72
number 3 = 24

work:

the three numbers are symbolized as x, y, and z

x + y + z = 113

number 2 (y) is 3 times the third number (z) so

y = 3z

so x + 3z + z = 113

the first number (x) is 7 less than than the third number (z) so

x = z - 7

so z -7 + 3z + z = 113

5z - 7 = 113
5z = 120

z = 24

x = 17
y = 72

Hope this helped :)
