Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Distributive property: a(b +c) = a*b + a*c

(2x + 1) - 7(-6x + 9) = (2x + 1) + (-7)*(-6x) + (-7)*9

= 2x + 1 + 42x - 63 {Combine like terms}

= 2x + 42x + 1 - 63

= 44x - 62

Which expression is equivalent to -1/4 x + 1/2?

Anna71 [15]

The expression is given by:

$-\frac{1}{4}x+ \frac{1}{2}$

So we need to find an equivalent equation for this problem. Then, we will apply some mathematical rules:

Extracting the common factor 1/4, then:

$\frac{1}{4}(-x+2})$

Or extracting the common factor -1/4, then:

$-\frac{1}{4}(x-2})$

So, comparing these solutions with the answers about, there is no any answer that matches.

Answer:

a = 1, b = 2, c = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

$a + \frac{1}{b + \frac{1}{c} } = \frac{10}{7} \\ \\ a + \frac{1}{b + \frac{1}{c} } = 1 + \frac{3}{7} \\ \\ a + \frac{1}{b + \frac{1}{c} } = 1 + \frac{1}{\frac{7}{3} } \\ \\ a + \frac{1}{b + \frac{1}{c} } = 1 + \frac{1}{2 + \frac{1}{3} } \\ \\ equating \: like \: terms \: on \: both \: sides \\ \\ a = 1 \\ \\ b = 2 \\ \\ c = 3$

the population of masterton was 23 000 in 2012. Assume that Masterton population increases at a rate of 2% per year. Write an eq

Oksanka [162]

So, let's first focus on the first year:

the population then would be: 23000* (100+2)%

100% is the old population the 2% is the incease, so in total it's 102%, or 1.02 - the same number written differently.

So it will be 23000*1.02

After two years it will be 23000*1.02*1.02, and so on

so after x years it will be:

y=23000* $1.02^{z}$
