You combine like terms which are -10x and 7x and 1 and 37. Then it becomes -3x=36. x would equal to 36/-3, which is -12.
Answer:
Answer: (B) 3
Step-by-step explanation:
20x + 15(2x) + 10(3x) = 40
20x + 30x + 30x = 40
80x = 40
x = 40/80
x = 1/2
Find the amount of lobster
Lobster = x = 1/2 pound
Find the amount of crab:
Crab = 2x = 2(1/2) = 1 pound
Find the amount of Shrimp:
Shrimp = 3x = 3(1/2) = 3/2 pounds
Find the total pounds of seafood:
Total = 1/2 + 1 + 3/2 = 3 pounds
Answer: (B) 3
The answer is -6 is less than 3
Answer:
You begin with 1 bacteria, and after 1 hour it has tripled so you now have 1 x 3=3.
Next hour, it triples again so you now have 1 x 3 x 3=9
You can see the pattern shows that the number of bacteria is multiplying every hour by a factor of 3. An exponent denotes how many times we are multiplying a number by itself, for example: 34 means we are multiplying the number 3 a total of 4 times (3 x 3 x 3 x 3).
Therefore the question is requiring us to triple the number of bacteria every hour for 24 hours, which means we are multiplying by 3 a total of 24 times. This gives us:
n x 324 where n is the number of bacteria you begin with.
Since you begin with 1 bacteria, the solution is 1 x 3 to the power 24 and u will get ur answer
7/6 is the answer. If you divide the denominator by 3, you would get it
