Answer:

x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x+1) +5 = 2x -2

<em>Distribute the 3 to the x+1</em>

3x+3 +5 = 2x -2

<em>Combine like terms</em>

3x + 8 = 2x -2

<em>Subtract 2x from both sides</em>

x + 8 = -2

<em>Subtract 8 from both sides</em>

x = -10

Hope this helps!

Answer:

x=-10

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x+1)+ 5=2x- 2

Distribute the 3

3(x+1)+ 5=2x- 2 would equal

3x+3+5=2x-2

Combine like terms

3x+3+5=2x-2

3+5=8 So,

3x+8=2x-2

You want to get the numbers with x on one side

Subtract 8 on both sides to get 3x by itself

3x+8-8=2x-2-8

3x=2x-10

Then you have to get the 2x on the other side because you still want x on the other side so you do -2x on both sides

Which gives you

x=-10

That is your answer

Bob believes his test grade varies directly with the number of hours he spends studying and inversely with the number of hours h
Readme [11.4K]

Answer: Hello mate!

A direct variation implies that, if y is the dependent variable that varies with the variable x; then: y = k*x where k is a real number.

An inverse variation has the form y = k/x where also k is a real number.

them, if we define s as the hours that Bob spends studying, and b as the hours that he spends playing baseball, then the equation that represents the score is:

Score(s,b) = k*s/b

we know that if s = 6, and b = 7, then the score is 72; with this information, we could obtain the value of the constant k.

score(6,7) = 72 =k*6/7 = k*

then  k = 72*(7/6) = 61.7

now if s = 4 and b = 6, the score that he should expect is:

score( 4, 6) = 61.7*(4/6) = 41
