So first, just simply solve both and then it become obvious. The expression 3-(2+5), you can evaluate what's inside the parentheses first and then your answer will be in the form of a integer: 3-(2+5) = 3-7 = -4 With the second one, your answer will be in the form of a simplified expression because we don't know what x is: 3x-(2x+5) = 3x-2x-5 = x - 5 Also, in the second one, you have to expand the parentheses in order to simplify it.

What is the answer to this question?<br> Y=x^2-1 with the input as 5

mixas84 [53]

We can see that, when the input is 5, the output is 24.

<h3>How to evaluate an equation?</h3>

Here we have the equation:

$y = x^2 - 1$

Where y is the output and x is the input.

We want to evaluate it with the input as 5, so we need to replace the variable x by the number 5, we will get:

$y = 5^2 - 1 = 24$

Then we can see that, when the input is 5, the output is 24.

Giselle works as a carpenter and as a blacksmith. She earns $ 2 0 $20dollar sign, 20 per hour as a carpenter and $ 2 5 $25dollar

dem82 [27]

She worked as a carpenter for 12 hours and as a blacksmith for 18 hours.

Assuming you mean she earned $20 as a carpenter and $25 as a blacksmith per hour, with a total of 30 hours for $690,
let c represent carpenter hours and b for blacksmith hours.

20c + 25b = 690
c + b = 30
Subtract b from each side so that c = 30 - b
Plug this value into the first equation

20(30 - b) + 25b = 690
600 - 20b + 25b = 690
600 + 5b = 690
5b = 90
b = 18

To find c, plug this value of b into the other equation
c + 18 = 30
c = 12
