Answer:

$\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{x = 30}}}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf{1200 - 5(3x + 30) = 600}$

Distribute 5 through the parentheses

$\dashrightarrow{ \sf{1200 - 15x - 150 = 600}}$

Subtract the numbers: 150 from 1200

$\dashrightarrow{ \sf{ - 15x + 1050 = 600}}$

Move 1050 to right hand side and change it's sign

$\dashrightarrow{ \sf{ - 15x = 600 - 1050}}$

Subtract 1050 from 600

$\dashrightarrow{ \sf{ - 15x = 450}}$

Divide both sides of the equation by -15

$\dashrightarrow{ \sf{ \frac{ - 15x}{ - 15} = \frac{ - 450}{ - 15} }}$

Calculate

$\dashrightarrow{ \sf{x = 30}}$

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D

Answer:

x=+30

Step-by-step explanation:

1200-5(3x+30)=600

We move all terms to the left:

1200-5(3x+30)-(600)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-5(3x+30)+600=0

We multiply parentheses

-15x-150+600=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-15x+450=0

We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

-15x=-450

x=-450/-15

x=+30

A limousine company charges a fixed cost for a limousine and an hourly rate for it's driver. It cost $500 to rent a limousine fo

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer: the fixed cost to rent the limousine is $200

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the fixed cost rent the limousine.

Let y represent the cost of of hiring the driver of the limousine per hour.

It cost $500 to rent a limousine for 5 hours. This means that

x + 5y = 500 - - - - - - - - - - -1

It costs 800 to rent a limousine for 10 hours. This means that

x + 10y = 800 - - - - - - - - - - -2

Subtracting equation 2 from equation 1, it becomes

- 5y = - 300

y = - 300 /- 5

y = 60

Substituting y = 60 into equation 1, it becomes

x + 5 × 60 = 500

x + 300 = 500

x = 500 - 300

x = 200

HELLP BRAINLIEST!!! Could someone clarify something for me?? What is the expression that represents the area of the rectangle? D

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question doesn't ask you to find the area, it just ask for the expression that represents the area.

The area of rectangle is A=bh, where b and h are each of the side lengths.

Since we know the sides are (2x+7) and (5x+9), this means that the expression for the area of the rectangle is:

$(2x+7)(5x+9)$

To find the degree and classification, expand the factors:

$=(2x+7)(5x+9)\\=(10x^2+18x+35x+63)\\=10x^2+53x+63$

Thus, this is a second degree quadratic expression

And from Part A, when we multiplied (2x+7)(5x+9), we got another polynomial (10x^2+52x+63). Thus, this rerepresents the closure property of polynomials, where multiplying a polynomial by another gets another polynomial.
