Answer:

0 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

2+5x−7=3x−9+2x

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−2+5x−7=3x−9+2x

−2+5x+−7=3x+−9+2x

(5x)+(−2+−7)=(3x+2x)+(−9)(Combine Like Terms)

5x+−9=5x+−9

5x−9=5x−9

Step 2: Subtract 5x from both sides.

5x−9−5x=5x−9−5x

−9=−9

Step 3: Add 9 to both sides.

−9+9=−9+9

A store is having a sale on jelly beans and trail mix. For 8 pounds of jelly beans and 3 pounds of trail mix, the total is $18.

topjm [15]

Answer: each pound of jelly beans costs 1.5 dollars, or $1.50, and each pound of trail mix costs 2 dollars, or $2

Step-by-step explanation:

j = jellybeans

t = trail mix

2j + 5t = 13

8j + 3t = 18

To solve this, we want to isolate a variable, and solve for the other. Let's do that with each equation.

2j + 5t = 13

2j = 13 - 5t

j = (13 - 5t) / 2

8j + 3t = 18

8j = 18 - 3t

j = (18 - 3t) / 8

Now that we have isolated the variable j in each equation, we can set the two right-sides equal to each other, and solve for t.

(13 - 5t) / 2 = (18 - 3t) / 8

By multiplying both sides by 8, this becomes simpler to look at.

8 * (13 - 5t) / 2 = 18 - 3t

4 * (13 - 5t) = 18 - 3t

4 * 13 - 4 * 5t = 18 - 3t

52 - 20t = 18 - 3t

52 = 18 + 17t

34 = 17t

34 / 17 = t

t = 2

Now that we have solved for t, we can trivially plug it into one of the other equations to solve for j. Let's choose the first equation, as it doesn't matter which we choose.

t = 2

2j + 5t = 13

2j + 5 * 2 = 13

2j + 10 = 13

2j = 13 - 10

2j = 3

j = 1.5

So, each pound of jelly beans costs 1.5 dollars, or $1.50, and each pound of trail mix costs 2 dollars, or $2.

Answer:

D) 2/3 x - 8

E) -4x + 11

Step-by-step explanation:

y ∈ R | -∞ < y < ∞ just means that the range for y is all real numbers in a function. For y to be all real numbers, the function, when graphed, has to have no top or bottom limit. The only graphs without top or bottom limits are D and E.

A has a bottom limit

B has a bottom limit

C has a top limit

Over the last 3 evenings, Keisha received a total of 81 phone calls at the call center. The first evening, she received 6 few

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

First: 15

Second: 21

Third: 45

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to create the equation we need to represent the evenings with an alebraic term, in thsi case we are going to represent the second evening with an X

Second evening:x

The first night she got 6 fewer calls than the second: Second-6=x-6

The third night she received 3 times the first: 3(first night)=3(x-6)

The equation is First Night plus second night plus third night equals 81.

$First+second+third=81\\x+(x-7)+3(x-6)=81\\x+x-7+3x-18=81\\5x=81+21+6\\5x=105\\x=\frac{105}{5} \\x=21$

So the first evening he received 15 calls, the second he received 21 and the third one he received 45.

What is the value of x? A. 4 B. 4√3 C. 8 D. 8√3

SashulF [63]

Answer:

B. 4√3

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sin \: 60 \degree = \frac{x}{8} \\ \\ \therefore \: \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} = \frac{x}{8} \\ \\ \therefore \: x = \frac{8 \times \sqrt{3} }{2} \\ \\ \therefore \: x = 4 \times \sqrt{3}\\ \\ \huge \purple{ \boxed{ \therefore \: x = 4 \sqrt{3} }}\\$
