8 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by using the distributive property to simplify 8(1/4x+3/4):

8•1/4x=2x

8•3/4=6

The equation now reads: 2x+6-3=17. Subtract 3 from six and you get 2x+3=17.

You can now proceed to answer this like any two step linear equation.

2x+3=17

-3 -3

2x=14

x=7

7 is the solution to this equation

Find three consecutive integers such that the sum of the first two is three times the third.

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

-3, -4, -5

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 1st integer

x+1 = 2nd integer

x+2 = 3rd integer

x+x+1 = 3(x+2)

2x + 1 = 3x + 6

1 = x + 6

-5 = x

-4 = x+1

-3 = x+2

Miles is planning to spend 2/3 as many hours Bicycling this week as he did last week is Miles going to spend more hours were few

Firlakuza [10]

Answer: Yes, He bicycled fewer in this week than last week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let he bicycled x hours in the last week,

Then, According to the question,

$\text{ He bicycled in this week} = \frac{2}{3} \text{ of the hours he bicycled last week} = \frac{2x}{3}$

$\text{ Since, }1 > \frac{2}{3}$

$\implies x > \frac{2x}{3}$

$\text{ He bicycled in the last week} > \text{ he bicycled in this week}$

Hence, He bicycled fewer in this week than last week.

How do i solve this using imaginary numbers? PLEASE HELP

Tasya [4]

Answer:

14 -2i

Step-by-step explanation:

9 + sqrt(-4) - ( -5 + sqrt(-16))

We know the sqrt of a negative number is i * sqrt(number)

9 + isqrt(4) - ( -5 + isqrt(16))

9 + 2i - (-5 + 4i)

Distribute the negative sign

9+2i +5 -4i

Combine like terms

14 -2i
