Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

4(3x+5)=6(x+8)-x

Distribute

12x +20 = 6x +48 -x

Combine like terms

12x+20 = 5x+48

Subtract 5x from each side

12x-5x +20 = 5x-5x+48

7x +20 = 48

Subtract 20 from each side

7x+20-20 = 48-20

7x = 28

Divide each side by 7

7x/7 = 28/7

x = 4

12x + 20 = 6x + 48 + -x
12x + 20 = 5x + 48
7x + 20 = 48
7x = 28
x = 4

Can someone please write an equation to model this scenario which relates to the first two questions. I need it ASAP!

Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

y = 50x + 200

Step-by-step explanation:

the 200 is the y intercept because it is where his pay starts, so even if Matt doesnt make any sales he will still get 200 that week

the slope (50) is determined because that is what will change

if he makes 2 sales he will make 100 + 200 that week, and if he makes 4 sales he will make 200 + 200 that week and so on

A copy machine makes 28 copies per minute. How many copies does it make in 3 minutes and 45 seconds?

lina2011 [118]

Convert minutes and seconds to minutes:
$\text{3 mins 45 seconds} \longrightarrow 3 \dfrac{3}{4} \text{mins}$

FInd 3 3/4 mins:
$\text{1 min} \longrightarrow 28 \text{ copies}$

$3 \dfrac{3}{4} \text{ min} \longrightarrow 28 \times 3\dfrac{3}{4} \text{ copies}$

$3 \dfrac{3}{4} \text{ min} \longrightarrow 28 \times \dfrac{15}{4} \text{ copies}$

$3 \dfrac{3}{4} \text{ min} \longrightarrow 105 \text{ copies}$

Answer: It can make 105 copies.
