Answer:

7 is not a solution for x.

Step-by-step explanation:

To see if 7 is a solution for x, we will simply plug in the value for x and see if the left hand side is equal to the right hand side.

3x + 8 - x = 57 - 4

3(7) + 8 - (7) ?= 57 - 4

21 + 8 - 7 ?= 53

29 - 7 ?= 53

22 ?= 53  (( NO ))

Since 22 does not equal 53, 7 is not a solution for x.

Let's find the solution for x:

3x + 8 - x = 57 - 4

2x + 8 = 53

2x = 45

x = 22.5

Let's validate this solution for x:

3x + 8 - (x) = 57 - 4

3(22.5) + 8 - (22.5) ?= 57 - 4

67.5 + 8 - 22.5 ?= 53

45 + 8 ?= 53

53 == 53  (( YES ))

Since 53 is indeed equal to 53, then 22.5 is a solution for x.

Cheers.

Answer:

No, 7 is not a solution. x=11.25

Step-by-step explanation:

To find whether 7 is a solution, we can plug it in as x.

3(7)+8-7=57-4

21+15=53

36=53

No, 7 is not a solution.

We can find the solution by solving out the equation normally

3x+8+x=57-4

2x+8=53

2x=45

x=22.25

What property was used to rewrite the polynomial expression (x+5)+3(a+(6x)y) to 5+(x+3a+(18x)y)
Umnica [9.8K]
<span>3(a+(6x)y) was clearly multiplied out as seen by the 3a and 18xy, so the distributive property was used there. In addition, the commutative and associative properties state that you can rearrange sums, so those were used too </span><span />

Lupita rides a taxi that charges a flat rate of $6.75 plus $3.20 per mile. If the taxi charges Lupita $40.03 in total for her tr
Alex777 [14]
Hello! In order to understand this question, we need to take a look at the content that is involved.

Lupita pays $40.03 in total. Meaning that's where we are going to start if we want to find out how many miles her ride was. Since the taxi charges a flat rate of $6.75. We would want to subtract it from her total value because we only work with that flat rate once. Which ends up giving us $33.28. From there, we don't need to worry about the flat rate anymore and we now focus on the mileage. If it costs $3.20 per mile, then we can simply divide the amount after to flat rate by the cost per mile, to figure out how many miles she has gone. In the end, you will get 10.4 miles.
