Answer:
D.) 12
Step-by-step explanation:
16x - 3(4x + 5) = 2x + 9
16x - 12x - 15 = 2x + 9
4x - 2x = 15 + 9
2x = 24
2x/2 = 24/2
x = 12
Check:
16x - 3(4x + 5) = 2x + 9
16(12) - 3(4(12) + 5) = 2(12) + 9
192 - 3(48 + 5) = 2(12) + 9
192 - 3(53) = 24 + 9
192 - 159 = 33
33 = 33

Step-by-step explanation:
Convert each to a improper fraction
Answer:
Erie to Rochester is 145 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
If we designate the points of interest as C, E, and R, we are told that ...
CE + ER = CR . . . . . the various distances are segments of a straight line
For CE = 94 and CR = 239, we can fill in the given information and solve for ER.
94 + ER = 239
ER = 239 -94 . . . . . . subtract 94 from both sides of the equation
ER = 145
The distance from Erie to Rochester is 145 miles.
If two secants intersect from a point outside of the circle, then the product of the lengths of the secant and its external segment equals the product of the other secant and its external segment.
#1
5(x+5) = 6(4+6)
5x + 25 = 6 * 10
5x = 60 - 25
5x = 35
x = 7
#2
4(x+4) = 3(5+3)
4x + 16 = 3 * 8
4x = 24 - 16
4x = 8
x = 8/4
x = 2
