3x - 8 = -2    |subtract 10 from both sides

3x - 18 = -12    |divide both sides by 3

Solve the following: -3x + 7(x + 5) = 5x + 38<br><br> please explain!
kkurt [141]

Answer: -3

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x+ 7x+ 35= 5x + 38

You solve the distributive property on the left side and set it equal to the right

4x+35= 5x+38

-4x -4x

35= x+38

-38 -38

X=-3

Susie plans to run 2 miles per day the first week and then increase the daily distance by a half a mile each of the following we
AlekseyPX

Due to length restrictions, we kindly invite to see the explanation below to know the answer with respect to each component of the question concerning linear equations.

<h3>How to determine a linear equation describing the daily distance of a runner</h3>

In this question we need to derive an expression of the <em>daily</em> distance as a function of time. Now we proceed to complete the components:

  1. <em>Linear</em> equations have an <em>independent</em> variable (t - time) and a dependent variable (x - daily distance).
  2. We notice that the daily distance increases linearly in time, then then we have the following pattern:

    t          1            2            3             4            5              6
    x          2          2.5          3           3.5           4             4.5
  3. The equation that represents the n-th term of the sequence is x(n) = 2 + 0.5 · (n - 1).
  4. The week when Susie will run 10 miles per day is:

    10 = 2 + 0.5 · (n - 1)
    8 = 0.5 · (n - 1)
    n - 1 = 16
    n = 17

    Susie will run 10 miles per day in the 17th week.
  5. It is not reasonable to think that pattern will continue indefinitely as it is witnessed in the difficulties experimented by <em>fastest</em> runners in the world to increase their <em>peak</em> speeds.
  6. A marathon has a distance of 26 miles, then we must solve the following equation:

    26 = 2 + 0.5 · (n - 1)
    24 = 0.5 · (n - 1)
    48 = n - 1
    n = 49

    Susie should start her training 49 weeks before the marathon.

You are considering leasing one of two store sites of equal size. The first site features a percentage lease of 4% of sales per
hoa [83]

The amount due for the first term of payment is the product of the total sales and the percentage.

(1)      Amount due = ($85,000)(0.04) = $3,400

The total amount due for the second term of payment is the product of the total sales and the percentages together with all the fees specified in the item (insurance, maintenance, and utilities).

(2)      Amount due = ($85,000)(0.03) + $175 + $50 + $345 = $3,120

If we are to compare the two amounts, using the second term of payment, lesser amount will be paid. Thus, the answer to this item is the second choice.
