Multiply the first bracket by 6.

Multiply the second bracket by 8

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

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

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

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

x+6= 6+2x

Move +2x to the other side. Sign changes from +2x to -2x.

x-2x+6= 6+2x-2x

-x+6= 6

Move +6 to the other side. Sign changes from +6 to -6.

-x+6-6= 6-6

-x=0

Multiply by -1 for -x and 0

-x(-1)= 0(-1)

x= 0

Answer: x= 0

In the solution, 3b + 9c = 3(b + 3). What should be done to make it CORRECT?
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

The second term of the binomial factor should be 3c instead of 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distributive property:

a*b + a*c = a*(b +c)

3b + 9c = 3*b + 3* 3 *c = 3*(b + 3c)

A family visits a car show to research information on vehicles they might consider purchasing. Brochures for each vehicle provid
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Option A:

Number of seats

Step-by-step explanation:

A discrete quantitative variable is a variable that can be enumerated. This means that they are in units in which numbers can be assigned to and can be counted.

The number of seats present in the car can be counted. This feature can also be evaluated based on its numeral value, rather than its quality. In a simple form, the buyers feel that the more the number of seats present in the car, the more people it can carry. Hence, the family would love to buy a car with a good number of seats in it.

The other features in the options are rather continuous, qualitative, or boolean. Some of them are continuous because they cannot be counted e.g fuel efficiency. The others such as the presence of a sunroof can be seen as a boolean variable. (it can either be true or false)

Type of the transmission is a qualitative variable

37. Construct Arguments Luis and Raul are
Katarina [22]

Using the slope - intercept relation, the required equation which models the scenario and Raul's speed are ;

  • <em>y</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>7.5x</em><em> </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>15</em><em> </em>
  • <em>4</em><em> </em><em>miles</em><em> </em><em>per</em><em> </em><em>hour</em><em> </em>

Time difference, Δt = 1.2 hours - 0.5 hours = 0.7 hours

Change in distance, Δd = 11.25 - 6 = 5.25 miles

Assuming a constant speed :

  • Speed = (Δd ÷ Δt) = (5.25 ÷ 0.7) = 7.5 mi/hr

<u>Using the general form</u> :

  • y = bx + c

At, x = 1.2 hours ;

Miles left, y = 6 miles

End point decreases by 7.5 mi/hr (-7.5 mi/hr)

Inputting the data into the equation :

6 = - 7.5(1.2) + c

6 = - 9 + c

c = 6 + 9 = 15 miles

<u>The expression in slope intercept form becomes</u> ;

  • y = -7.5x + 15

<u>If Raul lives 5 miles closer to the beach</u> ;

<u>Time it will take Luis to get to the beach</u> :

  • Time taken = (15 ÷ 7.5) = 2.5 hours

Distance Raul has to cover = 15 - 5 = 10 miles

To reach the beach after 2.5 hours ;

  • Speed required = (10 ÷ 2.5) = 4 mi/hr

Therefore, Raul has to ride at 4 miles per hour for the plan to work.
