Answer:
u = -5/9
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
- Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
- Equality Properties
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>
-3(u + 2) = 5u - 1 + 5(2u + 1)
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>u</u></em>
- Distribute: -3u - 6 = 5u - 1 + 10u + 5
- Combine like terms: -3u - 6 = 15u + 4
- Add 3u to both sides: -6 = 18u + 4
- Subtract 4 on both sides: -10 = 18u
- Divide 18 on both sides: -10/18 = u
- Simplify: -5/9 = u
- Rewrite: u = -5/9
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in u into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute in <em>u</em>: -3(-5/9 + 2) = 5(-5/9) - 1 + 5(2(-5/9) + 1)
- Multiply: -3(-5/9 + 2) = -25/9 - 1 + 5(-10/9 + 1)
- Add: -3(13/9) = -25/9 - 1 + 5(-1/9)
- Multiply: -13/3 = -25/9 - 1 - 5/9
- Subtract: -13/3 = -34/9 - 5/9
- Subtract: -13/3 = -13/3
Here we see that -13/3 does indeed equal -13/3.
∴ u = -5/9 is a solution of the equation.

52.25 x 0.08 = 4.18
So the tax is $4.18, and the total cost is $56.43
Answer:
A is the answer because...
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's narrow it down, so it is not D because 8/2=4 but 64/4=16, so already they don't share a slope. It is not B because the numbers don't work together like they should, since we are trying to prove proportionality. It is not C because we are not trying to square the numbers but find a similarity between the numbers, the same slope I mean. So that leaves A which has the slope of 2, test it out now. 0 and 0 are the same, 4/2=2, 8/4=2, 12/6=2. So now you know that A is the correct answer.
Hope you understand! :)
This is a probablity question
there are 3 slots, 26 letters of the alphabet
so in the first slot, we have 26 possible letters
2nd slot, we have 25 possible letters (we used one for the first slot)
3rd slot, we have 24 possible letters, (we used 2 for first and 2nd slot)
so in total, we have 26*25*24 or 15600 different 3 letter initials with no repeated letters
