3x - 8 = 2x + 15
Add 8 to both sides
3x = 2x + 23

There are 36 bikes in a store (18 pairs). 1 pair(s) are yellow, 3 pairs are red, and the rest are purple. If you took out a purp
LenaWriter [7]

Answer: 27/36

Step-by-step explanation: It says there are 36 bikes (18 pairs), meaning that there are 2 bikes per pair because 18 multiplied by 2 is 36.

1 pair (2 bikes) are yellow.

3 pairs (6 bikes) are red.

For purple, add yellow and red together: 2 + 6 = 8. Subtract the total number of bikes from this: 36 - 8 = 28 purple bikes.

If you take out 1 purple bike, this leaves you with 27. The probability of choosing a purple bike out of the total (36), is 27/36.

Please let me know if this is correct or wrong.

16x^2+?x+36 perfect square trinomial
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

  16x² +48x +36

Step-by-step explanation:

A perfect square trinomial is of the form ...

  (a +b)² = a² +2ab +b²

We want to match this form.

__

<h3>comparing terms</h3>

Comparing the known terms, we see ...

  16x² = a²   ⇒   a = 4x

  36 = b²   ⇒   b = 6

<h3>filling in the missing term</h3>

The missing term is the linear term:

  2ab = 2(4x)(6) = 48x

  ? = 48
