Answer:

If you're solving for x, the answer is -50. x = -50

Step-by-step explanation:

Remove the parenthesis and distribute:

-5(x-8) + 7(x+3) = x + 11

-5x + 40* + 7(x+3) = x + 11

-5x + 40 +7x + 21* = x + 11

Collect like terms and calculate:

| -5x + 7x

2x + 40 + 21 = x + 11

| 40 + 21

2x + 61 = x + 11

Move them to the other side like so:

2x - x* + 61 = 11

| -61

2x - x = 11 - 61

Combine:

x = 11 - 61

x = -50

A pool of linen container 100 meters. three butete brought 15.75 meters, 22.50 meters and 12.25 meters respectively. how many me

Nitella [24]

Answer:

49.5 meters of linen were left after the sale.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that there are 100 meters of linen

And 15.75, 22.50 and 12.25 meters are sold.

This means that the sold linen has to be added to find the total linen sold.

And then the quantity of sold linen will be subtracted from 100 to find the meters of linen left.

$Total\ linen\ sold = 15.75+22.50+12.25 = 50.5\ meters$

Left linen will be:

$=100-50.5 = 49.5$

Hence,

49.5 meters of linen were left after the sale.

4x-8y=12 14+2x=-6y plz help

sesenic [268]

Answer:

x=2.7142 y=-2.8571,

Step-by-step explanation:

given 4x-8y=12............(1)

14+2x=-6y

2x+6y=-14..........(2)

from equ (2) multiply by 2

4x+12y=-28............(3)

substruct (1) and (3)

4x-8y-4x-6y=12-(-28)

-14y=40 ,y= $\frac{40}{-14}$ =-2.8571

y=-2.8571 put in equ (1)

4x-8(-2.8571)=12

4x=12-22.857=10.8571

x= $\frac{10.8571}{4}$

x=2.7142

Can u plz help me plz don’t guess

OLga [1]

Answer:

B) Checkers Club

Step-by-step explanation:

The spread is the difference between the minimum and the maximum. Those extreme values are indicated by the dots at the ends of the "whiskers" in the "box and whisker" plot.

Chess club extends from 8 to 18, so the spread is 18 -8 = 10.

Checkers club extends from 6 to 17, so the spread is 17 -6 = 11. This is a greater value than 10.

Checkers club has the greater spread.
