Answer:

x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

6(x + 1) -5x = 8 + 2(x - 1)

6x + 6 - 5x = 8 + 2x - 2

6x - 5x - 2x = 8 - 2 - 6

- x = 0

Answer:

x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

6(x + 1) - 5x = 8 + 2(x - 1) =

6x + 6 - 5x = 8 + 2x - 2 =

x + 6 = 6 + 2x

6 - 6 = 2x - x

0 = x

check it...

6(0 + 1) - 5(0) = 8 + 2(0 - 1)

6(1) - 0 = 8 + 2(-1)

6 - 0 = 8 - 2

6 = 6 (correct)...so it checks out

x = 0 <===

A salesperson obtained a systematic sample of size 25 from a list of 500 clients. To do so, he randomly selected a number from

dangina [55]

Answer: Option 'D' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

First term = 13

Increase each time = 20

Number of clients = 25

So, it forms an arithmetic progression:

So, 25 th term would be

$a_{25}=a+(n-1)d\\\\a_{25}=13+(25-1)\times 20\\\\a_{25}=13+24\times 20\\\\a_{25}=13+480\\\\a_{25}=493$

Hence, list would look like 13,33,............493.

Therefore, Option 'D' is correct.

Yves bought 420 tropical fish for a museum display. He bought 6 times as many parrotfish as angelfish. How many of each type of

ohaa [14]

The answer would be d , because you have to add how many of each fish to equal up to the sum of 420 . which is x y . so the first equation is x + y = 420 . then it says he bought 6 times as many parrotfish as he did angelfish so you would have to multiply x which represents angelfish by 6 . to get the second equation of y = 6x .
