Yes it does, the number of wheels is dependent on the number cars, and each number of wheels will only correspond to one number of cars.
Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve:
Distribute 5 among everything inside the first parentheses. You'll get 5x - 15.
Next distribute -2 among everything in the second parentheses. You'll get
-2x - 2.
<u>All together: 5x - </u><u>15</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u>2x </u><u>-</u><u> </u><u>2</u><u> </u><u>= 4</u>
Now combine like terms:
5x - 2x = 3x and -15 - 2 = - 17
<u>All</u><u> </u><u>together</u><u>: 3x -</u><u> </u><u>17 = 4</u>
Add 17 on both sides to get 21, and then divide both sides by 3. Answer is x = 7.
________________________________
Last, don't forget to check your work.
You can plug in 7 for x to get:
5(7 - 3) = 20
5 × 7 = 35
5 × -3 = -15
35 - 15 = 20
-2(7 + 1) = -16
-2 × 7 = -14
-2 × 1 = - 2
-14 -2 = -16
<u>20 - 16 = 4</u>
⬆⬆⬆Therefore this is correct.

300 messages would have to be sent or received in order for the plan to cost same each month.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Cost per month = $30
Per text sent or received charges = $0.10
Let,
x be the number of texts sent or received.
A(x) = 0.10x+30
A comparable plan costs = $60 per month
Text messages are unlimited.
B(x) = 60
For the two plans to cost equal;
A(x) = B(x)
Dividing both sides by 0.10
300 messages would have to be sent or received in order for the plan to cost same each month.
