3x+2(x-1)=9x=4
We move all terms to the left:
3x+2(x-1)-(9x)=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
-6x+2(x-1)=0
We multiply parentheses
-6x+2x-2=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
-4x-2=0
We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right
-4x=2
x=2/-4
x=-1/2
width= 8
Length= 15
(8x15= 120 and 8 is 7 less than 15)
Answer is C. 8, 3, 6
To answer this, you must know the Triangle Inequality Theorem.
The two shortest sides when added together, must be greater than the longest side.
A. 2 + 4= 6 which can't work since it equals the longest side of 6
B. 4 +2=6 The sum would be less than 8, which doesn't work
C. 6 +3 = 9 the sum is greater than 8, which makes it a triangle
D. 3 +8 = 11 11 is less than 12
Answer: x=4 ; y=<u> -4</u>
3
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + y = -4
.(-3)
2x + 3y = 4
-6x-3y=12
<u>2x + 3y = 4</u>
4x=16
x= <u>16</u>
4
x=4
2x + 3y = 4
2.4+3y=4
8+3y=4
3y= -8+4
y=<u> -4</u>

Answer:
180 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
capacity of tank= 18.5gallons
vehicle averages 666 miles per tank.
Hence, the vehicle can travel 666 miles on 18.5 gallons
Required
The distance covered on 5 gallons
Step two:
vehicle can travel 666 miles on 18.5 gallons
the vehicle will go x miles on 5 gallons
cross multiply we have
5*666= 18.5*x
3330=18.5x
divide both sides by 18.5
x= 3330/18.5
x=180 miles
