Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

1

2(3x + 1) = 4(x + 2) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

6x + 2 = 4x + 8 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

2x + 2 = 8 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

2x = 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 3

------------------------------------------------------------

2

6x = 4(x - 3) ← distribute parenthesis

6x = 4x - 12 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

2x = - 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = - 6

-----------------------------------------------------------

3

2(4x + 7) = 4x + 30 ← distribute parenthesis on left side

8x + 14 = 4x + 30 (subtract 4x from both sides )

4x + 14 = 30 ( subtract 14 from both sides )

4x = 16 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 4

---------------------------------------------------------------------

4

50 = - (y + 22) ← distribute parenthesis by - 1

50 = - y - 22 ( add 22 to both sides )

72 = - y ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

- 72 = y , that is

y = - 72

2) Brian purchased pens for 75 cents each and pencils for 40 cents each he bought total of 22 writing utensils for $11.95. How m
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

13 pencils.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the pens and y be the pencils

Given:

Brian purchased pens for 75 cents each and pencils for 40 cents each he bought total of 22 writing utensils for $11.95.

Total pens and pencils is 22

So, x+y=22----------------(1)

And he bought all utensils for $11.95. and each pen for 75 cents and pencils for 40 cents.

0.75x+0.40y=11.95------------(2)

solve equation 1 and equation 2 for x and y.

From equation 1.

x+y=22

y=22-x----------------(3)

put y value in equation 2.

0.75x+0.4(22-x)=11.95

0.75x+0.4\times 22-0.4x=11.95

0.75x+8.8-0.4x=11.95

0.75x-0.4x=11.95-8.8

0.35x=3.15

x=\frac{3.15}{0.35}

x=9

Now substitute x value in equation 3.

y=22-9

y=13

So, he buy 13 pencils.
