Answer:
x = - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
7(x + 2) = 2x - 1 ← distribute parenthesis on left side
7x + 14 = 2x - 1 ( subtract 2x from both sides )
5x + 14 = - 1 ( subtract 14 from both sides )
5x = - 15 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = - 3
Just general definitons:
a TRInomial has 3 terms (tri means three)
a BInomial has 2 terms (bi means two)
a MONOmial has 1 term (mono means one)
the degree is the highest exponent found in the algebraic expression
so they should be pretty easy to solve with that information, but just in case:
1. trinomial, degree of 4
2. binomial, degree of 3
3. monomial, degree of 2
for the final question, all you have to do is plug in 2 for x, so
(2)^2 - 2(2) + 1
4 - 4 + 1
so the answer is 1
Okay if there are 8 teachers and 6 reams of paper you would have to divide 6 by 8 and you would get 0.75
6/8= 0.75
each teacher would get 0.75 (3/4) of a ream of paper
