Simplifying
9x + -3(x + 8) = 6x + -24

Reorder the terms:
9x + -3(8 + x) = 6x + -24
9x + (8 * -3 + x * -3) = 6x + -24
9x + (-24 + -3x) = 6x + -24

Reorder the terms:
-24 + 9x + -3x = 6x + -24

Combine like terms: 9x + -3x = 6x
-24 + 6x = 6x + -24

Reorder the terms:
-24 + 6x = -24 + 6x

Add '24' to each side of the equation.
-24 + 24 + 6x = -24 + 24 + 6x

Combine like terms: -24 + 24 = 0
0 + 6x = -24 + 24 + 6x
6x = -24 + 24 + 6x

Combine like terms: -24 + 24 = 0
6x = 0 + 6x
6x = 6x

Add '-6x' to each side of the equation.
6x + -6x = 6x + -6x

Combine like terms: 6x + -6x = 0
0 = 6x + -6x

Combine like terms: 6x + -6x = 0
0 = 0

Solving
0 = 0

Your Olympic team wins 48 medals in the spring. The medals are gold, silver, and bronze in a ratio of 2 : 1 : 5. How many of eac
Rudiy27

Answer:

12, 6 and 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

Number of medals = 48 medals

The given ratio is = 2:1:5

The total ratio is = 2+1+5= 8

Step two;

Applying the part to all method

for Gold we have

2/8=x//48

cross multiply

8x= 48*2

divide both sides by 8

x= 96/8

x= 12

gold is 12

for silver we have

1/8=x//48

cross multiply

8x= 48*1

divide both sides by 8

x= 48/8

x= 6

silver is 6

for bronze we have

5/8=x/48

cross multiply

8x= 48*5

divide both sides by 8

x= 240/8

x= 30

Bronze  is 30

For the upcoming holiday season, Dorothy wants to mold 20 bars of chocolate into tiny pyramids. Each bar of chocolate contains 6
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]
So each bar contains 6 and she has 20 so 6 times 20=120

pyramid volume=legnth times width times height times 1/3
v=base times height times 1/2
v=1 times 2 times 1/3
v=2/3
volume of 1 pyramid is 2/3 cubic inches

divide 120 by 2/3 to find out how many pyrimds will fit into amount given
120/1 divide by 2/3=120/1 times 3/2=360/2=180

she can make 180 pyramids

PLEASE HELP!!! ANYONE???
Nadusha1986 [10]
We can eliminate choice C because our parabola is not upside down.  The way I determined which one it was was by picking a point on the graph and testing the x value of the point in the equation.  If the y value on the graph was the same as the y value on my calculator, then I chose the right one.  Let me give you an example of what doesn't work first.  Let's pick (3, 2) from the graph.  Let's test that point in choice D.  Filling in x = 3, y should = 2 if that's the right equation.  \frac{1}{2}(3^2)-3+2= \frac{7}{2}.  Our y coordinate is not 7/2, it's 2.  Let's try A: \frac{1}{3}(3^2)-3-2=-2.  Again, our y value is 2, not -2.  Let's try B: \frac{1}{3}(3^2)-3+2=2.  See how that works?  Your choice is B.

What is 3/5 equivalent to
REY [17]
Multiply both the numerator and the denominator by the same number and you'll get an equivalent fraction. For example, 3/5 times 2/2 equals 6/10, which is an equivalent fraction to 3/5. Multiply both by 8, and you have 24/40, which is also equivalent to 3/5. I hope this helped you tremendously! <span />
