Answer:
B, C
Step-by-step explanation:
7 - x = 18
A.
7 - 2x = 18 - x
126 - 14x = 324 - 18x
We are nowhere near the solution.
B.
-x = 11
x = -11
This works.
C.
7 = x + 18
-11 = x
This works.
D.
25 - x = 36
-25 + x = -36
This does not help.
E.
7 = x + 18
0 = x + 11
We still do not have a solution.
Answer: B, C
Any number times 0 equals 0
Answer: for the first it is not direct varition while for the second one it i s
Step-by-step explanation:
Canton: 7,720 and increases at a rate of 80 people per year.
Holly Spring: 3,200 and increases at rate of 120 people per year.
Let x be the number of years.
Canton = 7,720 + 80x
Holly Spring = 3,200 + 120x
7,720 + 80x = 3,200 + 120x
80x - 120x = 3,200 - 7720
-40x = -4520
x = -4520 / -40
x = 113
It would take 113 years before the populations are equal.
7,720 + 80x = 3,200 + 120x
7,720 + 80(113) = 3,200 + 120(113)
7,720 + 9,040 = 3,200 + 13,560
16,760 = 16,760
