Twice the difference of a number and 8 is equal to three times the sum of the number 2

Mathematics
1 answer:
exis [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

-22

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the unknown be x,

Step 1: You first write the question in equation form,

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

Step 2: You clear the brackets by multiplying the number outside with the numbers inside the bracket,

2x-16=3x+6

Step 3: Collect like terms,

2x-3x=6+16

Step 4;Solve

2x-3x=6+16

-x=22

<em>Therefore </em><em>x=</em><em>-</em><em>2</em><em>2</em>

Classify each system of equations as having a single solution, no solution, or infinite solutions.
mina [271]
To find what the answer is for this problem, we need to find out whether each of them have infinite, no, or single solutions. We can do this individually.

Starting with the first one, we need to convert both of the equations into slope-intercept form. y = -2x + 5 is already in that form, now we just need to do it to 4x + 2y = 10.

2y = -4x + 10
y = -2x +5

Since both equations give the same line, the first one has infinite solutions.

 Now onto the second one. Once again, the first step is to convert both of the equations into slope-intercept form. 

x = 26 - 3y becomes
3y = -x + 26
y = -1/3x + 26/3 

2x + 6y = 22 becomes
6y = -2x + 22
y = -1/3 x + 22/6

Since the slopes of these two lines are the same, that means that they are parallel, meaning that this one has no solutions. 

Now the third one. We do the same steps. 

5x + 4y = 6 becomes
4y = -5x + 6
y = -5/4x + 1.5
 
10x - 2y = 7 becomes
2y = 10x - 7
y = 5x - 3.5

Since these two equations are completely different, that means that this system has one solution.

Now the fourth one. We do the same steps again. 

x + 2y = 3 becomes
2y = -x + 3
y = -0.5x + 1.5

4x + 8y = 15 becomes
8y = -4x + 15
y = -1/2x + 15/8

Once again, since these two lines have the same slopes, that means that they are parallel, meaning that this one has no solutions. 

Now the fifth one. 

3x + 4y = 17 becomes
4y = -3x + 17
y = -3/4x + 17/4

-6x = 10y - 39 becomes
10y = -6x + 39
y = -3/5x + 3.9

Since these equations are completely different, there is a single solution. 

Last one!

x + 5y = 24 becomes
5y = -x + 24
y = -1/5x + 24/5

5x = 12 - y becomes
y = -5x +12

Since these equations are completely different, this system has a single solution.

I really need this . Someone please help . Is it abc or d
prisoha [69]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

lets start off by looking at point A (1,1)

4 units to the right is along the x-axis, so the x-coordinate would be 5 (1 + 4)

2 units up is on the y-axis, so the y-coordinate would be 3 (1 + 2)

A is now (5,3). we can eliminate choices A, C, and D as they each have negative numbers in them, and we are moving in the positive direction, not the negative.

the answer is B

5. A map is drawn to a scale of 3:750.
Ainat [17]

Answer:

23.1m

Step-by-step explanation:

we define x to be the actual distance, y to be the distance on map (y=15.4cm)

if the map scale is 3:750, then by definition of scaling, x and y must satisfy:

\frac{y}{x}  =  \frac{3}{750}  =  \frac{1}{150}

we isolate x:

x = 150 \times y = 150 \times 15.4 = 2310cm = 23.1m
