Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
3(x+2)=12
Distribute:
3x+6=12
Subtract:
3x+6-6=12-6
3x=6
Divide:
x=2
Answer:
Using the estimate:
The car has to go for 1,200 miles but it consumes a gallon of gasoline for every 30 miles. The number of gallons it will need is therefore:
= 1,200 / 30
= 40 gallons
Each gallon costs $3.00 so the total cost is:
= 40 * 3
= $120
Without using the estimate:
The car has to go for 1,211 miles but it consumes a gallon of gasoline for every 29 miles. The number of gallons it will need is therefore:
= 1,211 / 29
= 41.76 gallons
Each gallon costs $3.40 so the total cost is:
= 41.76 * 3.40
= $141.98
<em>Using the estimate provides a lower cost of gasoline for the trip. </em>
Answer:
|x-3|-5
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = |x|
These lines are lines of absolute value equations. g(x) is shifted 3 units left so we subtract 3 from within the bars, and shifted down 5 units so we subtract 5 from the absolute value which leaves us with |x-3|-5
Answer:
Robert
Step-by-step explanation:
If Robert runs 3 miles in 45 minutes, by the end of 90minutes, Robert would have covered 6miles, while Jacob covered 5miles in 90 minutes, therefore, Robert ran faster than Jacob.
1) this is simply solving it, so if you divide 16 by 3, you end up getting 5 1/3
2) 3 1/2, by multiplying 7 by 1/2
3) 224, by multiplying 14 by 16
4) 54 mph, by dividing 324 by 6
5) blue, because only the 1/4 ribbon color would be collected after 3/4 mile
6) 7/8 - 3/8 equals 4/8, or 1/2 when simplified
