Hello!

You solve this algebraically.

2(x - 3) + 4 = 2x + 3x - 5

Distribute the 2

2x - 6 + 4 = 2x + 3x - 5

Combine like terms

2x - 2 = 5x - 5

Subtract 2x from both sides

-2 = 3x - 5

Add 5 to both sides

3 = 3x

Divide both sides by 3

x = 1

The answer is D)1

Hope this helps!

If you simplify both sides, then add all the x's to one side, then divide since there would be more than one x, x would equal one.

Henry received $500 for his birthday which he intends to invest in an account that pays simple interest at the rate of 12% per y

Mila [183]

Answer:

$560

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Principal, P= $500

Interest rate, r = 12% per year

Amount in account after 1 year

Time = 1 year

Using the relation :

A = P(1 + rt)

A = final amount in account

A = $500(1 + 0.12(1))

A = $500(1 + 0.12)

A = $500(1.12)

A = $560

<span>y - 2418.6 = 5.9(x - 54)
y - 2418.6 = 5.9x - 318.6
y = 5.9x + 2100
f(x) = 5.9x + 2100 (this is our function)
.
Now we can answer:
