2nd term = 3 - 14 = -11
3rd tern = -11-14 = -25 answer
38.2 is the quotient!!!!
Hope this helps
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
Let d represent the number of dimes Lily saved. Then the value of her coins in cents is ...
10d +100(16-d) = 520
-90d +1600 = 520 . . . . . eliminate parentheses, collect terms
-90d = -1080 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 1600
d = -1080/-90 = 12 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of d
Lily has 12 ten-cent coins.
You can simply collect terms, subtract the constant and divide by the x-coefficient. It is generally considered easier to do those steps if you eliminate fractions first (multiply by 12).
Multiply by 12
... 4(x -1) +3(x +5) = 6
... 4x -4 +3x +15 = 6 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
... 7x +11 = 6 . . . . . . . . . . . .collect terms
... 7x = -5 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract the constant 11
... x = -5/7 . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by the x-coefficient

Here it is the other way.
... x(1/3 +1/4) +(-1/3 +5/4) = 1/2
... (7/12)x + 11/12 = 1/2 . . add the fractions to finish collecting terms
... x + 11/7 = 6/7 . . . . . . . multiply by 12/7
... x = -5/7 . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 11/7
At the third step here, you could subtract 11/12 before doing the multiply. You get the same answer, but you have to do the extra conversion of 1/2=6/12.
Answer:
Truck D.
Step-by-step explanation:
Below are the rates of travel of 4 shipping trucks.
Truck A: 300 miles in 4 hours Truck B: 240 miles in 3 hours Truck C: 325 miles in 5 hours Truck D: 170 miles in 2 hours.
Speed = distance/time
Speed of Truck A,
Speed of Truck B,
Speed of Truck C,
Speed of Truck D,
It can be seen that the speed of Truck D is more out of Trucks A,B and C. Hence, Truck D is moving at a faster rate.
