(x^2 - 3x + 1) - (x^2 + 2x + 7)
Distribute the negative
x^2 - 3x + 1 - x^2 - 2x - 7
Combine like terms
-5x - 6
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First you need to make the 12 5/8 into an improper fraction by multiplying 12 by 8 and then adding the total by 5.
-> 
Now you have 
so you need a common denominator by multiplying the first fraction by 2
Then you subtract 160 - 101 which equals 59.
Let's denote Cindy's age which is unknown with X
We know that Cindy's age is 3 times her age 6 years ago.
6 years ago Cindy's age was the present age (X) - 6 : X-6
The fact that the present age is 3 times her age 6 year ago can be written as:
3*(X-6)
So, finally:
X=3*(X-6)
Answer:
x = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
These angles are consecutive interior angles, so when added they will equal 180 degrees (according to the consecutive interior angles theorem).
3x - 10 + 5x + 30 = 180 add/subtract all like terms
8x + 20 = 180
8x = 160
x = 20 <--- This will be your answer
Hope it helps!
-20 because after the the thermometer hits zero the more negative the temperature gets the colder it is
