X= number of tubs Kasey sold
3x= number tubs sister sold
Add the number sold by Kasey and her sister to equal the total sold (88).
x + 3x= 88
combine like terms
4x= 88
divide both sides by 4
x= 22 number tubs Kasey sold
Number Sold by Sister
3x= 3(22)= 66
CHECK:
x + 3x= 88
22 + 3(22)= 88
22 + 66= 88
88= 88
ANSWER: Kasey sold 22 tubs and her sister sold 66 tubs.
Hope this helps! :)

Answer:
7x^3 +11x^2 -5x -8
Step-by-step explanation:
Combine like terms.
(4x^3+6x^2+2x^2-3) + (3x^3+3x^2-5x-5)
= (4 +3)x^3 +(6 +2 +3)x^2 +(-5)x + (-3 -5)
= 7x^3 +11x^2 -5x -8
_____
Noting that the first expression contains two x^2 terms, we wonder if you actually want the sum ...
(4x^3+6x^2+2x-3) + (3x^3+3x^2-5x-5)
= (4 +3)x^3 +(6 +3)x^2 +(2 -5)x +(-3 -5)
= 7x^3 +9x^2 -3x -8
Answer:
x > -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 9 to both sides so as to isolate x: -10 + 9 < x - 9 + 9, or -1 < x, or x > -1.
Answer:
C. 88 in.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is because the equation for the circumference of a circle is pi times diameter. To get the diameter, multiply the radius by 2. Then do 28*3.14 to get the circumference of the circle then round your answer to get the nearest whole number which is 88 in.
GRAPHING CONS
1) hard to graph by hand. Often you need a graphics calculator or a computer software like maple or matlab. Or the graph has to be given.
2) hard to tell the exact solution, just by observing point of intersection. for example if x = 2.8675, the viewer would say x= 3.
3) sometimes not easy to decide the axis window of y and x axis. For example if the solution is very large like x = 100000 and your graph ends at x = 100, you cannot see the solution
SUBSTITUTION CONS
1) Becomes tedious if a system has too many equations or variables
ELIMINATION PROS/CONS
1) basically same as substitution
