-5(n - 4) = 20

Distribute the -5 through the parenthesis
-5n + 20 = 20

subtract 20 from both sides
-5n = 0

Divide both sides by -5
n = 0

CHECK
-5( 0 - 4) =
-5(-4) = 20

The cost to rent a car at one agency is $24.50 per day plus an additional $15.99 fee for insurance. At a different agency, the c
Lena [83]

Answer:

d=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Agency 1:

Total cost of renting a car=24.50d + 15.99

Agency 2:

Total cost of renting a car=27.50d + 3.99

Where, d=No. of days of renting the car

Which equation could be used to find the number of days, d, at which the rental fee is the same for both agencies?

The equation is by equating agency 1 and agency 2 equation

24.50d + 15.99 = 27.50d + 3.99

Collect like terms

24.50d - 27.50d = 3.99 - 15.99

-3d = -12

Divide both sides by -3

d= -12 / -3

=4

d=4

Check

Agency 1:

24.50d + 15.99

= 24.50(4) + 15.99

= 98 + 15.99

= 113.99

Agency 2:

27.50d + 3.99

= 27.50(4) + 3.99

= 110 + 3.99

= 133.99

The sum of 3 consecutive odd numbers is 183 ?
irina [24]

Answer:

The answer is 61.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the numbers are: x, (x+2), (x+4)

Now, x+x+2+x+4 = 183

3x + 6 = 183

3x = 177

x = 59

So, second number would be: (x+2) = (59+2) = 61
