Identify the number of solutions to 3x + 21 = 3(x + 7).

2 answers:

3x + 21 = 3(x + 7)
so what you do first is distribute on the left side (meaning you multiply everything in the parentheses by the number on the outside: in this case 3)
so: 3x + 21 = 3x + 21
now when it looks like this ☝️ (the same variables and the same coefficient) you can tell it’s all real numbers or infinitely many although you can continue to subtract 3x from each side to get: 21 = 21 (since it’s true it’s all real numbers / infinitely many)
hope this helps :)

The sum of three consecutive numbers is 72. What is the largest of these numbers?

kicyunya [14]

3 consecutive numbers....x, x + 1 and x + 2

x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 72
3x + 3 = 72
3x = 72 - 3
3x = 69
x = 69/3
x = 23

x + 1 = 23 + 1 = 24
x + 2 = 23 + 2 = 25

so ur numbers are 23,24,25 with 25 being the largest

Mrs O’maley ran 2 2/3 miles today.she plans to run the same distance every day this week. How many total miles wil she run this

natulia [17]

Okay, so we multiply..

And we know that a week = 7 days..

So..

2 * 2/3 * 7 = ???

We change the 2 into 2/1
THEN we multiply..

2/1 * 2/3 = 4/3

Then we change the 7 into 1/7.. ( Which is still a whole )

Then multiply again..

4/3 * 1/7 = 4/21

You can correct me if I'm wrong...
I hope this helps you!
