Carey should combine 8x with 2x and all other terms as one term by applying distributive property

<u>Solution: </u>

Given that,  

Carey solves the equation 4(2x – 1) + 5 = 3 + 2(x + 1) by applying the distributive property on both sides of the equation.  

The result is 8x – 4 + 5 = 3 + 2x + 2.  

Now, Carey then wants to combine like terms.  

We have to find which are the terms Carey should combine?  

If we observe clearly then there are two different types of terms, one with variables and others are numerical

Now let us make the like terms one side of “=”

Then, 8x – 2x = 3 + 2 + 4 – 5 ⇒ 6x = 4 ⇒ x = \frac{2}{3}

Hence, carey should combine 8x with 2x and all other terms as one term

A new car is purchased for 20300 dollars. The value of the car depreciates at 9.5% per year. What will the value of the car be,
Iteru [2.4K]
The starting value is 20,300, and the value is decreasing by 9.5% each year.

Because it decreases by 9.5% each year based on the previous amount, we use an exponential decay model.

A decrease by 9.5% corresponds to multiplying by 91.5% each year.

We write . We plug in 11 years for t.

A(t)=23000(0.915)^{t}\\\\A(11)=23000(0.915)^{11}\\\\A(11)=7671.18

$7,671.18

Why 1+1+1+1+...+1 is not geometric sequence
Olegator [25]
That sequence is not geometric or arithmetic
it is not changing or doing anything it is just remaining the same.

it would be geometric if it was:

1+1-1+1-1+1........

The base of a trinagle is increased by 20% and it’s height is increased by 30%. By what percent is the area of the triangle incr
Molodets [167]

Lets say the base is x and the height is y. The new base would be 1.2x and the new height would be 1.3y

Area of a triangle is base times height divided by 2:

1.2x*1.3y/2 = (1.2*1.3 + x*y)/2 = 1.56xy/2 = 0.78xy = 78% of xy

But a normal area would be 50% of xy

78% - 50% = 38%

ANSWER: 38% increase
