First, change everything into minutes.
12 noon is 12 by 60 which = 720 minutes.
9am is 9 by 12 which = 540 minutes.
X is now your number of minutes before noon.So noon - x is the next step:
720 - x
20 minutes ago it was 720 - x - 20
720 - x - 20= 540 + 3x (3x because you're looking for 3 times as many minutes)
720 - 20 - 540=4x (you combine all the like numbers and variables) 
160 = 4x
160/4= x
40 = x
Your answer is 40 minutes

PLEASE HELP IMMEDIATELY!!!
kkurt [141]

Answer:

x = -33

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3(x+6)=-18

Multiply each side by 3/2

3/2*2/3(x+6)=-18*3/2

x+6 = -27

Subtract 6 from each side

x+6-6 = -27-6

x = -33

Translate the following verbal expression into an algebraic expression.
poizon [28]

Answer:

3 * (x + 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Mark number as x

Then the sum of a number and seven is x + 7

Three times x + 7 can be written as

3 * (x + 7)

Parentheses mean that we first add x and 7 and then multiply their sum by 3

Alternatively you can write it as 3x + 21, since

3 * (x + 7) = 3 * x + 3 * 7 = 3x + 21
