First, distribute the right side.
8*(x + 5) = 8x + 40
Then, we write the whole equation:
8x + 47 = 8x + 40
Looking at it, we can subtract 8x from both sides, so that we're left with:
47 = 40
However, we obviously know that 47 is NOT equal to 40, so there is <em>no solution</em> for this equation.
Answer:
Rick ran 5.6 miles on Thursday.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's first find the speed Rick ran on Wednesday.
D=RT
4.2 = (3/4)R
R = 5.6 mph.
D=RT
D=(5.6 mph)(1)
D=5.6 miles
Let me know if this helps!
9(x + 3) = 108
First distribute the 9 to everything inside the parenthesis by multiplying them.
9x + 27 = 108
Now subtract 27 from both sides
9x + 27 (-27) = 108 (-27)
9x = 81
divide 9 from both sides
9x/9 = 81/9
x = 9
9x = 81
