The error is in the second step they subtracted 3 from both sides but it was a 3x, which you can not do.
Correction.
9x+18+3x=1
12x+18=1
12x=-17
x=-17/12

Answer:

error is in second step.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is 9x + 18 + 3x = 1

Now we will solve this equation and compare it with the given answer.

9x + 18 + 3x = 1

12x + 18 = 1

12x = (-17)

x = (\frac{-17}{12})

Now we find the error is in second step.

X^2 + 18x + c = 25 +c
svet-max [94.6K]
Rearrange to: x^2 + 18x - 25 = 0
Then factorise (I like to do it by completing the square):
(x + 9)^2 -81 -25 = 0
(x + 9)^2 = 106
x + 9 = sqrt(106)
The sol'ns are:
x = -9 + and - sqrt(106)

Suppose y varies directly with x, and y = 15 when x = 3. What is y when x = 12?
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

y = 60 when x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct variation is

y = kx

15 = k3

Divide by 3

15/3 = k

5 =k

y = 5x

Let x = 12

y = 5*12

y = 60

Two mechanics worked on a car. The first mechanic worked for 20 hours, and the second mechanic worked for 15 hours. Together the
klasskru [66]

The rate charged per hour by each mechanic was:  x = 75 $ / hr and y = 115 $ / hr.

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>

A system of equations is two or more equations that can be solved to get a unique solution. the power of the equation must be in one degree.

Given;

The first mechanic worked for 20 hours, and the second mechanic worked for 15 hours.

Together they charged a total of $3225.

For this case we have the following variables:

x be the amount of $ / hr that the mechanic obtains 1.

y be the amount of $ / hr obtained by mechanic 2.

An equation to express this would be:

x + y = 190

20x + 15y = 3225

Solving the system of equations we have:

20x + 15(190 -x) = 3225

20x + 2850 - 15x = 3225

5x = 375

x = 75

simililary

y = 190 - x

y = 115

Hence, the rate charged per hour by each mechanic was:

x = 75 $ / hr

y = 115 $ / hr
