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 :)

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+21=3(x+7)

3x+21=3x+21

3x-3x=21-21

0x=0

x=0

katrin [286]

Let:

Vbu= Volume of the buret

Vbk= Volume of the beaker

A buret initially contains 70.00 millimeters of a solution and a beaker initially contains 20.00 ml of the solution the buret drips solution into the Beaker. each drip contains 0.05 mL of solution, therefore:

x = Number of drips

a = volume of each drip

$\begin{gathered} Vbu=70-ax \\ Vbk=20+ax \\ \text{where:} \\ a=0.05 \\ Vbu=70-0.05x \\ Vbk=20+0.05x \end{gathered}$

after how many drips will the volume of the solution in the buret and beaker be equal ? Vbu = Vbk:

$\begin{gathered} Vbu=Vbk \\ 70-0.05x=20+0.05x \\ \text{Solve for x:} \\ 0.1x=70-20 \\ 0.1x=50 \\ x=\frac{50}{0.1} \\ x=500 \end{gathered}$

Duane and mick are saving their money to build a tree house. Duane adds $5 to their piggy bank every other week. Mick adds $2 er

Furkat [3]

10 weeks
Duane adds $5 every other week so that's 5 weeks out of 10. 5 x 5 = 25
Mick adds $2 every week so,
2 x 10 = 20

25 + 20 = 45

Need help please cant understand this probplem

klasskru [66]

Answer:

No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute the right side of the equation.

This will make it 3/8f+1/2=3/8f - 18

And, since 3/8f plus 1/2 will never equal the same thing as 3/8f minus 18, there are no solutions
