Answer:
The answer is... the first option... why equals negative x + 5 and y = x - 3
You have not given us any of the steps that Ricardo took to simplify the
expression, and you also haven't given us the list of choices that includes
the description of his mistake, so you're batting O for two so far.
Other than those minor details, the question is intriguing, and it certainly
draws me in.
If Ricardo made a mistake in simplifying that expression, I'm going to say that
it was most likely in the process of removing the parentheses in the middle.
Now you understand that this is all guess-work, because of all the stuff that you
left out when you copied the question, but I think he probably forgot that the 3x
operates on everything inside the parentheses.
He probably wrote that 3x (x-3) is
either 3x² - 3
or x - 9x .
In reality, when properly simplified,
3x (x - 3) = 3x² - 9x .
362.50 for tennis and golf balls.
To find the answer divide the dollar amount by how many cans or boxes each cost then multiply that answer by the total amount purchased.
Golf balls
45/2=22.50 each box
22.5*5=112.50 total
Tennis balls
30/12=2.50 each can
2.50*100 = 250.00
add the dollar amounts together
112.50+250.00 =362.50
The answer is 1500g. There are 1000 grams in a kilogram so 1.5 x 1000 = 1500.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
if additive inverse then
(1/3y)+7
if multiplicative inverse then
3y-7
if both then
3y+7
if in this way
f(x)=(1/3x)-7
f(-x)=(-1/3)-7
