\huge\boxed{12x-14}

Start with the original expression.

-17+2(6x-1)+5

Use the Distributive Property — multiply 2 by both 6x and -1.

-17+12x-2+5

Combine the like terms — add up all the constants.

-14+12x

Reorder the terms.

\large\boxed{12x-14}

Y=3/4 x-4
pochemuha

Answer:

see graph of y=3/4 x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming you mean

y = \frac34x - 4

Below is a graph of that one. The slope is 3/4 and the interception with the y axis is at y=-4. The equation is in its normal form y=ax+b with a=3/4 (slope) and b=-4 (y intercept), so no conversion needed.

You have to be careful on how you write these equations down. It might very well be that you meant:

y = \frac{3}{4x-4} or y = \frac{3}{4x} - 4

However, those are more complex so I'm hoping for the first one... ;-)

Javier drove 45 miles. This represent 60% of his entire trip. What is the total number of miles in Javier’s trip
Andrews [41]
60% of trip = 45 miles

let total trip distance = l

60% is given by multiplying by 0.6

So;

0.6l = 45 \\ \\ l = \frac{45}{0.6} \\ \\ \boxed{l = 75}

Your answer is 75 miles

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

The number of boys who play tennis is 36.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of boys who play tennis is x.

number of boys who play cricket = y

x = 3 y..... (1)  

12 boys plays both cricket and tennis.

According to the question,

x - 12 = y + 1 2

3 y - 12 = y + 12

2 y = 24

y = 12

So, the number of boys who plays tennis is x = 3 x 12 = 36.
