8x - 2x(x+1) = 2(3x-1)

First, expand to remove parenthesis. / Your problem should look like:

8x - 2x - 2 = 6x - 2

Second, subtract 8x - 2x -2 to get 6x - 2. / Your problem should look like:

6x - 2 = 6x - 2

Third, both sides are equal, so there are infinite solutions. The equation is always true, meaning identity

Answer: Infinite solutions

Jodi is cutting out pieces of paper that measure 8 1/2 inches by 11 inches from a larger sheet of paper that has an area of 1000

jolli1 [7]

8 1/2 or 8.5 x11 = 93.5 square inches thus,
1000 square inches divided by 93.5 square inches
1000/93.5 ~10.695
that mean that Jodi can cut out about 10 pieces of paper measuring 8 1/2 x 11 inches.

A box of Munchkins contains chocolate and glazed donut holes. If Jacob ate 2 chocolate

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

24 munchkins.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let C be the number of chocolate and D be number of glazed donut holes in the original box.

We are told if Jacob ate 2 chocolate munchkins, then 1/11 of the remaining Munchkins would be chocolate. We can represent this information as:

$C-2=\frac{1}{11}*(C+D-2)...(1)$

We are also told if he instead added 4 glazed Munchkins to the original box, 1/7 of the Munchkins would be chocolate. We can represent this information as:

$C=\frac{1}{7}*(C+D+4)...(2)$
