Step-by-step explanation:
-(4x + 3x) = 10x - 5
We would have to multiply the -1 by the 4x and the 3x which is in the bracket.
Though there is no 1 behind the bracket but, behind any bracket there is 1 there even though it's ignored.
So when we multiply -1 by 4x we are going to get;
-4x
And when we multiply -1 by 3x It's going to be;
-3x
We have -3 and -4 because whenever we multiply any positive and negative number the product is negative.
So;
-4x - 3x = 10x - 5
So now, we group like terms;
- 4x - 3x - 10x = -5
So now that we have grouped, we have to add the negative numbers even though there is no addition sign there we would have to add
-17x = -5
So now we divide both sides by;
-17
Which is going to be;
x=
Answer:
Boxes sold first week = 104
Boxes sold second week =x+5= 104+5=109
Boxes sold third week = 109 times 2= 218
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of boxes sold in first week
the girls sold 5 more boxes the second week
So number of boxes sold in second week is x+5
they double the sales of the second week for the third week
So number of boxes sold in third week is 2 (x+5)
Total boxes sold is 431
subtract 15 from both sides
divide by 4 on both sides
Boxes sold first week = 104
Boxes sold second week =x+5= 104+5=109
Boxes sold third week = 104 times 2= 218
IM pretty sure the answer is
1.A

Using proportions, considering the weight of each bar and the ratio, it is found that the ship is carrying 52 gold bars.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.
Each bar weighs 5 kg, and the total weight is of 600 kg, hence the number of bars is given by:
n = 600/5 = 120.
The proportion of gold bars is given by:
p = 13/(13 + 17) = 13/30
Hence, out of 120 bars, the number of gold bars is given by:
nG = 120 x 13/30 = 4 x 13 = 52.
