First write what are given from the question
We write "<span>Craig scored 12 points in a game" as
</span>⇒ c = 12 <em>(first equation)</em>
We write "<span>Marla scored twice as many points as Craig but 5 fewer than Nelson scored" as
</span>⇒ m = 2c <em>(second equation)</em>
⇒ m = n - 5 <em>(third equation)</em>
<span>
Second, find the expression for n based on what we write above
</span>From the second and third equation
⇒ m = m
⇒ n - 5 = 2c
Subtitute from the first equation
⇒ n - 5 = 2c
⇒ n - 5 = 2(12)
⇒ n - 5 = 24

This is the expression to find how many nelson scored
n - 5 = 24

2x(x - 3) + 7(x - 3)<br> Can I have an explanation on how it works factors
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2x(x - 3) + 7(x - 3)

2x^2 - 6x + 7x - 21

reduce

2x^2 + x - 21

if this is equal to 0 then:

2x^2 + x - 21 = 0

factored:

(2x + 7)(x - 3) = 0

How that was done:

Divide the (2x^2) into (2x) and (x).

Divide the (-21) into (+7) and (-3). You choose these numbers so that their sum, when multiplied by (2x) and (-3), adds up to (+x).

The average price (in dollars) to rent a studio in a certain city can be approximated by the equation p - 24.1t+575 where t is
krok68 [10]

Answer:

<u>69 years</u> after 2005 which is in <u>2074</u> year the average price of a studio in this city will reach $1081.10.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Average Price to rent a studio is denoted by 'p'.

It is been approximated by equation:

p-24.1t+575

where t ⇒ number of years since 2005

Now given:

Average Price to rent a studio p = $1081.10

Substituting the value of p in above equation we get;

1081.10-24.1t+575

Solving the new equation to find the value of t we get;

1656.1=24.1t

Dividing both side by 24.1 we get;

\frac{1651.1}{24.1} =\frac{24.1t}{24.1} \\\\t= 68.71 \approx 69 years

Hence<u> 69 years</u> after 2005 which is in <u>2074</u> year the average price of a studio in this city will reach $1081.10.
