Let the actor's initial weight be 'x'
He is then gaining 20 pounds. The clue is in the word 'gaining' as it means 'increasing' or in Mathematics can be related as 'plus'
The expression is: x+20
He then loses 15 pounds. The clue is in the word 'losses' as it means 15 pounds is to be subtracted from the last value
Last value is x + 20
The weight now is x + 20 - 15 = x + 5
Answer:
J. 12 : 18
Step-by-step explanation:
Amy used 2 tea bags for every 3 cups of water to make iced tea
the ratio here is 2:3
x = 2:3
lets simplify our ratios
6 : 10 = 3 : 5 ≠ 2 : 3
5 : 6 = (doesn't simplify evenly) ≠ 2 : 3
9 : 15 = 3 : 5 ≠ 2 : 3
12 : 18 = 2 : 3 = 2 : 3
<h3>
Simplifying</h3>
find their highest common factor and divide both the numbers by the <u>same amount</u> (HCF).
Ex.
12 : 18
12 ÷ 6 = 2
18 ÷ 6 = 3
2 : 3
Answer:
All are positive, and point upwards. The angle that they increase along the horizontal axis is different.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are no negative signs that the x is multiplied in any of the equations, and the number they are multiplied by is different for each graph: one is 1, another is 2, and the last is 3.
Answer:
x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
(8x - 6) - (7x - 9)
Distribute the first parenthesis by 1 and the second by - 1
= 8x - 6 - 7x + 9 ← collect like terms
= x + 3
