Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

M is in the middle between S and T we know 2x+6 has to be the same as 3x+3 if 3x is one more x then 2x then we do 6-3 that eqauls 3 so X=3 and 2*3=6 and 6+6= 12.

Hey there! :D

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{SM = 12}$

SM = 2x + 6

MT = 3x + 3

M is the midpoint of SM

Write an expression to represent the length of ST:

ST = SM + MT

ST = 2x + 6 + 3x + 3

Combine like terms:

ST = 5x + 9

Since ST = 2(SM), set up another equation:

5x + 9 = 2(2x + 6)

5x + 9 = 4x + 12

Isolate the "x" variable:

5x - 4x = 12 - 9

x = 3.

Substitute in this value of "x" into the equation for SM:

2(3) + 6 = 12.

A nationwide club begins a chapter near you. You research the membership of the club over the past few decades.

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

Option (d)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given table,

Number of members in 1980 (t = 0) were 5400.

With the period of time number of members increased.

Let the number of years after 1980 = x

Therefore, line of best fit will be in the form of y = mx + b

Where b = Initial number of members = 5400

m = Increase in members in every 5 years duration

So the equation will be,

y = mx + 5400

From the given options,

Equation which matches to our equation is,

y = 310.58x + 5400

For the number of members in year 2022,

x = 2022 - 1980 = 42 years

y = 310.58(42) + 5400

y = 18445

Option (d) will be the answer.

The cost of company 1: 10x+50
The cost of company 2: 8x+60
The cost will be the same at:
$10x + 50 = 8x + 60 \\ 2x = 10 \\ x = 5$

the sum of two numbers is 45. the greater number is 9 more than the other number. Find each number. use a system of linear equat

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

18 and 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = first (smaller) number

Let y = second (larger) number

Sum of two numbers is 45:

⇒ x + y = 45

The greater number is 9 more than the other number:

⇒ y = x + 9

Substitute y = x + 9 into x + y = 45 and solve for x:

⇒ x + (x + 9) = 45

⇒ 2x + 9 = 45

⇒ 2x = 36

⇒ x = 18

Substitute found value for x into y = x + 9 and solve for y:

⇒ y = 18 + 9

⇒ y = 27

Therefore, the two numbers are 18 and 27
