Answer:
<h3>39.6</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
collecting like terms we have:
5x-2x=-1+42
equating the terms..we have:
3x=41
divide both sides by the Co-efficient of x:
3x\3=42\3
x=39.6
Answer:
-16
Step-by-step explanation:
Represent the number by n.
Then:
8(n + 18) = 16
Performing the indicated multiplication, we get:
8n + 144 = 16
Subtracting 144 from both sides results in 8n = -128.
Dividing both sides by 8: n = -128/8 = -16
The number was -16.
If you're using a coordinate plane, I think it makes a trapezoid

Answer: C) 13 gallons</h3>
============================================================
Work Shown:
(150 miles)/(6 gallons) = (325 miles)/(x gallons)
150/6 = 325/x
150*x = 6*325 .... see note below
150x = 1950
x = 1950/150 .... divide both sides by 150
x = 13 gallons is the final answer
-----------
Note: in this step, I cross multiplied. The general template for cross multiplication is that we go from A/B = C/D to A*D = B*C. As the name implies, the "cross" refers to the "X" shape that forms when you multiply the terms.
