I’m sorry what? Explain ?
The equation is already set up for you. All you need to do is solve for x, the number of hours.
23 + 3x = 5x + 7 original equation
23 - 7 = 5x - 3x combine like terms by subtracting 7 and 3x from both sides
16 = 2x simplify
16/2 = x divide both sides by 2 to isolate x
8 = x solve for x
Therefore, the answer is 8 hrs.
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply 11 by 2 to get to 22; do the same to 4
so we know that each m&m weighs about 2g.
the next line says to write a direct variation equation.
(definition: mathematical relationship between two variables that can be expressed by an equation in which one variable is equal to a constant times the other)
we then make the equation ( w=xm), then we use that equation to figure out the next line, which is to find the amount of m&ms that would fit in a bag of 1000.
(my head cant really process part a cause of a recent headache, so sorry if its wrong)
the answer to part b would be 500, which you can provide evidence based off of your part a equation.
