Answer:
x = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Consecutive means in a row
Let x be the first integer
x+1 is the second
x+2 is the third
x+3 is the 4th
The sum is 50
x+ x+1 + x+2 + x+3 = 50
Combine like terms
4x+6 = 50
Subtract 6 from each side
4x+6-6 = 50-6
4x = 44
Divide each side by 4
4x/4 = 44/4
x = 11
Answer: Angie's profit equation is 25x−200=p
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of lawns that Angie mows in her neighborhood.
Let p represent the profit made by mowing x lawns.
Profit = Revenue - cost
She charges $25 per lawn. This means that the amount charged for x lawns = 25×x = 25x
So her revenue is 25x
She buys a new mower for $200. Thus, the cost is $200. Therefore, Angie's profit,p is expressed as
p = 25x - 200
Answer:
B, A, C
Step-by-step explanation:
That's a 30-60-90 triangle.
Combine like terms. 6y + 8y is 14y. 5z - 3z is 2z. so the answer is 14y + 2z.
Let's go through the steps of factoring that Venita should take.
1.) Find the greatest common factor (GCF). We only have two terms, so that makes it pretty easy.
32 = 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32
8 = 1, 2, 4, 8
The greatest common factor of 32 and 8 is 8. We can also factor out a <em>b</em> since that term appears in each part of the original expression. The GCF and variable should go on the outside of the parentheses.
8b( )
2.) Now let's figure out what should go in the middle of the parentheses. To do this, use the original expression and divide each term. This is written in the parentheses.
32ab ÷ 8b = 4a
8b ÷ 8b = 1
This would then result in the factored expression 8b(4a - 1). You can always check this by using the distributive property. Distribute 8b out to both expressions:
8b x 4a = 32ab
8b x 1 = 8b
32ab - 8b is the expression she started with, so your factored expression works!
Now that we went through the steps to solve the factored expression, let's check her answer. The only difference between Venita's and ours is that she has 0 as the second term while we have a 1. It seems that she had subtracted the GCF from the second term instead of dividing.
