Those are called binomials & you have to use the distributive property.
first: 3(x+1) distributed & simplified 3x+3 & 5(x-2) distributed & simplified is 5x-10, therefore 3(x+1) = 3x+3 & 5(x-2) = 5x-10. always simplify before solving any algebraic problem! 
second: so now we can say... 3x + 3 = 5x - 10 + 7 .
third: now we combine like terms by adding the -10 & 7 (on the right side) together to get -3.
fourth: now we have to isolate the variables by doing the opposite function on each side! it should look like this right now: 3x + 3 = 5x - 3 ... subtract the 3x, on both sides, from the 5x to get 2x. looks like this now: 3 = 2x - 3
now add the -3 (on the right) on the both sides
looks like this now: 6 = 2x
fifth: now divide to get 3.     X = 3 !!!!!

Pedro le dice a María si cambias los billetes de 10 € que tienes por billetes de 5 € y los billetes de 5 € por billetes de 10 €
Bad White [126]

Answer: Maria has 10 bills of 5€ and 10 bills of 10€.

She has a total of 150€.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "f" the number of 5€ bills that Maria has and "t" the number of 10€ bills that Maria has.

Set up a system of equations:

\left \{ {{f+t=20} \atop {5f+10t=10f+5t}} \right.

Use the Substitution method to solve the system of equations:

1. Solve for "f" from the first equation:

f=20-t

2. Substitute the equation obtained into the second equation and solve for "t".

Then:

5(20-t)+10t=10(20-t)+5t\\\\100-5t+10t=200-10t+5t\\\\20t-10t=100\\\\t=\frac{100}{10}\\\\t=10

3. Substitute the value of "t" into the equation f=20-t and evaluate:

f=20-10\\\\f=10

Therefore, Maria has 10 bills of 5€ and 10 bills of 10 €.

So the total amount of money she has, is:

Total=10(5)+10(10)=150

She has a total of 150€.

The ratio of blue tacks to red tacks on the bulletin board is 3 to 5. there are 50 red tacks. how many blue tacks are on the boa
natulia [17]
3:5=x:50

Therefore 5 ×x = 50

x = 10

Therefore 3 × 10 = 30

therefore 30 blue pens

proof = 30 blue + 50 red= 3+ 5

therefore 80 = 8x

Determine the equation of the tangent to x− 3x +1 at the point (3,1)
wariber [46]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  y = 3x -8

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume you want the tangent to the parabola y = x² -3x +1 at the given point. The slope is found using the derivative of the function at that point.

  y' = 2x -3

At x=3, the slope is ...

  y' = 2(3) -3 = 3

The equation of the line through point (3, 1) with a slope of 3 is ...

  y -1 = 3(x -3) . . . .  use the point-slope form of the equation for a line

  y = 3x -9 +1 . . . . . eliminate parentheses, add 1

  y = 3x -8

Factor completely 25x^2-36
Oxana [17]

Rewrite it in the form; a^2 - b^2, where a = 5x and b = 6

(5x)^2 - 6^2

Use the Difference of Squares: a^2 - b^2 = (a + b)(a - b)

<u>(5x + 6)(5x - 6) </u>
