3(x)-5=x+5
3x=-5+5+x
3x=x
0=x
because 3x=x is basically would make each part into 0 which would end up the same.

A box at a miniature golf course contains contains 4 red golf balls, 8 green golf balls, and 7 yellow golf balls. What is the pr
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

 =57.89%

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of golf ball is 4+8+7 = 19

P (red or yellow) = number of red or yellow

                              ------------------------------------

                                total number of golf balls

                           = 4+7

                              -----

                              19

                         =11/19

Changing this to a percent means changing it to a decimal and multiplying by 100%

                        = .578947368 * 100%

                         =57.8947368%

Rounding to two decimal places

                         =57.89%

Algebra 1 : ordered pairs kinda dont get it
lesantik [10]

Answer:

<em>Option C; 3x - y = -27 and x + 2y = 16</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let us consider the equation 21x - y = 9. In this case it would be best to keep the equation in this form, in order to find the x and y intercept. Let us first find to y - intercept, for the simplicity ⇒ 21 * ( 0 ) - y = 9 ⇒ y = - 9 when x = 0. Now if we take a look at the first plot of line q, we can see that the x value is -9 rather than the y value, so this equation doesn't match that of line q. This would eliminate the first two options being a possibility.

2. Now let us consider the equation 3x - y = -27. Let us consider the x-intercept in this case. That being said, ⇒ 3x - ( 0 ) = -27 ⇒ 3x = -27 ⇒ x = -9 when y = 0. As we can see, this coordinate matches with one of the coordinates of line q, which might mean that the second equation could match with the equation for line v.

3. To see whether Option 3 is applicable, we must take a look at the 2nd equation x + 2y = 16. Let us calculate the y - intercept here: ( 0 ) + 2y = 16 ⇒ 2y = 16 ⇒ y = 8 when x = 0. Here we can see that this coordinate matches with that of the second coordinate provided as one of the points in line v. That means that ~ <em>Answer: Option C</em>

Madison spent 3 times as long on her social project as she did on her other project. If she spent a total of 8 hours on he proje
deff fn [24]

Answer:

6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose Madison spent x hours on her social project,

then the number of hours spent on other project will be 1/3 of x=x/3

Total hours spend on all projects will be the addition of hours spent on social project and hour spent on other project, i.e

x + x/3 = 4x/3

It si given that this is 8 hours, therefore

4x/3=8

Multiplying both sides by 3:

4x=24

Dividing across board by 4:

x= 6 hours
