Answer:

a=2

Step-by-step explanation:

3a + 3 - 6a = 15

combine like terms: 3a +6a

9a + 3 = 15

add 3 to 15

9a = 18

divide 9 from 18

a = 2

plug it into the equation to check for errors!

3 (2) + 3 - 6 (2) = 15

3 (2) = 6 -6 (2) = -12

6 + 3 - 12 = 15

3 - 12 = 9

9 + 6 = 15

Hope this helps! ❤

The answer is -4. I don’t have an explanation though because I used the calculator.

The table shows the amount of red paint that can be added to different amounts of white paint while making a custom paint color:
KIM [24]

you are looking for a unit rate (for 1 quart of red, how much white is used).

notice all red amounts are less than white, so b and c make no sense.

I look at the 4:20 and think, half of the paint would be 2:10, half of that is 1:5

(you could also start with 4:20 and divide each by 4 to get this answer)

Sean has $75 to spend on CDs. If each CD costs $6.98, about how many CDs can he buy?
Daniel [21]
75/6.98=10.744
We would most likely round this down to 10 even though the .7 because if we round up we would go over the budget.
So he can buy about 10 CDs

7(6+d)=49 Solve for d.<br><br> A:d=7<br> B:d=-1<br> C:d=-7<br> D:d=1
Elan Coil [88]

Answer: d = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First distribute the 7 to each term of (6 + d) = 42 + 7d = 49 now subtract 42 from both sides which = 7d = 7. Divide by 7 = 7d/7 = 7/7 = d = 1
