(2x + 2) = (3x + -52)
Reorder the terms:
(2 + 2x) = (3x + -52)
Remove parenthesis around (2 + 2x)
2 + 2x = (3x + -52)
Reorder the terms:
2 + 2x = (-52 + 3x)
Remove parenthesis around (-52 + 3x)
2 + 2x = -52 + 3x
Solving
2 + 2x = -52 + 3x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.
2 + 2x + -3x = -52 + 3x + -3x
Combine like terms: 2x + -3x = -1x
2 + -1x = -52 + 3x + -3x
Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0
2 + -1x = -52 + 0
2 + -1x = -52
Add '-2' to each side of the equation.
2 + -2 + -1x = -52 + -2
Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0
0 + -1x = -52 + -2
-1x = -52 + -2
Combine like terms: -52 + -2 = -54
-1x = -54
Divide each side by '-1'.
x = 54
Simplifying
x = 54
(2x-1)(x+4)
2x^2 + 8x -x -4
Simplifies to
2x^2 + 7x - 4
Answer:
About 7:45
Step-by-step explanation:
7:40 OR 7:45 because sometimes the traffic light takes a while but 7:45 is best.
I think the answer is (C)?
