Answer:

8x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

In the expression -3x + 14 - 11 + 11x, we have two pairs of like terms that can be combined together:

-3x, 11x

14, -11

If we rewrite this expression with the like terms together, it would look like this:

-3x+11x + 14-11

To make the addition of -3x and 11x easier, we could switch their places in the expression to make it look like this:

11x-3x + 14-11

(Note: Even though we are switching the terms' places, the -3x still keeps its negative sign when you move it around.

11x-3x is 8x and 14-11 is 3.

Therefore, the expression -3x + 14 - 11 + 11x can be simplified by combining like terms into 8x + 3.

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

The solution is x=-2

The mistake could be in operation however here is the all operation

Step-by-step explanation:

Getting each term and sum each one

$4x-5=2+3(x-3)\\4x-5=2+3x-9\\4x-5=-7+3x\\4x-3x=-7+5\\x=-2$

Check replacing in the original equation:

$4(-2)-5=2+3(-2-3)\\-8-5=2-6-9\\-13=2-15\\-13=13$

For every 4 gallons of green paint he uses 3 gallons of blue paint. Drag the correct number of each type of paint into the box t

Inga [223]

Answer:

Amount of green color used =

$\dfrac{64}{7}\text{ gallons}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Every 4 gallons of green paint is mixed with 3 gallons of blue paint. to make a particular shade.

Ratio of green color to blue paint can be calculated as:

$=\dfrac{\text{Amount of green color}}{\text{Amount of blue color}}\\\\=\dfrac{4}{3}$

Amount of shade = 16

Amount of green paint = $4x$

Amount of blue paint = $3x$

Thus, we can write:

$4x + 3x = 16\\7x = 16\\\\x = \dfrac{16}{7}$

Amount of green color used =

$4x = 4\times \dfrac{16}{7} = \dfrac{64}{7}\text{ gallons}$

Amount of blue paint used =

$3x = 3\times \dfrac{16}{7} = \dfrac{48}{7}\text{ gallons}$

Use the information to solve the triangle. Round your answers to two decimal places. Hint: draw a sketch first to determine if y

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

A = 43°

b = 25.8 (3 sig. fig.)

c = 14.5 (3 sig. fig.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using angle sum of triangle, we get A = 180 - 104 - 33 = 43°

Using sin law,

b/sin104 = 18.1/sin43

b = 25.8 (3 sig. fig.)

c/sin33 = 18.1/sin43

c = 14.5 (3 sig. fig.)

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

x is less than 4

x is greater than 4

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x < -15x + 40 -5x < -15x + 40

+15x +15x -40 -40

10x < 40 -40 - 5x < -15x

÷10 ÷10 +5x +5x

× < 4 -40 < -10x

÷10 ÷10
