Natalie made a mistake in the following problem.

Mathematics
1 answer:
denis23 [38]4 years ago
4 0

They went wrong in Line 2 because they subtracted 2-1 instead of starting with the multiplication. You always use PEMDAS ( parentheses, exponent, multiplication, division, addition, and subtraction) in these situations. So it would be

6(4) first so

24 divided by 2

12 minus 1

11 plus 5 so the correct answer is

16

How many solutions does 5(x+2)-3=3x-8x+7 have
Kryger [21]

Answer:

One solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

5(x + 2) - 3 = 3x - 8x + 7

Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>

<u>Distribute 5:</u> 5x + 10 - 3 = 3x - 8x + 7

<u>Combine like terms:</u> 5x + 7 = -5x + 7

<u>Add 5x to both sides:</u> 10x + 7 = 7

<u>Subtract 7 on both sides:</u> 10x = 0

<u>Divide both sides by 10:</u> x = 0

Step 3: Check

<em>Plug in x to verify if it's a solution.</em>

5(0 + 2) - 3 = 3(0) - 8(0) + 7

5(2) - 3 = 7

10 - 3 = 7

7 = 7

Y=2/3x-2
to find intercepts, substitute 0 into y and solve for x = x intercept is (3,0) and repeat for y. substitute 0 into x to get y intercept of (0,-2)

Which bottle of water costs more per ounce: a 12
ollegr [7]

Answer:

the second bottle

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the amount it costs per ounce, divide the amount of money by the number of ounces.

A water bottle that costs $1.25 for 12 ounces costs roughly 10 cents per ounce. A water bottle that costs about 9 cents per ounce.

therefore, the 16 ounce bottle is cheaper per ounce

PLEASE HELP!<br> WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

1) 7m

2) 13

3) 4x^2y

4) 6s^3t^4

Step-by-step explanation:

gcf means the the greatest factor that works for both terms

1) 21m^3 and 28m

    let's first find the gcf for the coefficient

    21 and 28, the gcf is 7. (hopefully thats easy to explain)

    the gcf for the variables is the same mindset as the numbers

    m^3 and m, both can be factored by m

    so the gcf is 7 * m which is 7m

2)

  13x and 26

  let's first find the gcf for the coefficient

  13 and 26, gcf is 13

  there's only one variable, x, so there's not gcf for that

 so the gcf is just 13

3)

  8x^2y and -12x^3y^2

  let's first find the gcf for the coefficient

  8 and -12, the gcf is 4 (you can also say -4)

  for the variables , same mindset

 x^2y and x^3y^2

 the gcf for x is x^2, and for y it is just y

 so 4 * x^2 * y = 4x^2y

by understanding 3) hopefully you can understand 4)

pls comment for any questions

If b is the midpoint of ac, find bc (ab=3x-1 and ac=8x-20)
lys-0071 [83]
Bc would equal 26. Since ab and bc would equal the same thing, you would add (3x-1) to (3x-1) and equal it to (8x-20) and solve.
