Answer:
hope it helps uh..........
False,that is not true because
3*x=3x
3*-5=15
you just distribute the 3 to both values in the parenthesis.
so then we have
17=3x-15+8
simplify
17=3x-23
add 23 to both sides
40=3x
divide both sides by 3
x=13 1/3
Answer:
They averaged 3lbs. a week for 4 weeks to get 12lb. They would need an additional 36lbs. to get to 48lbs. Averaging the same 3lbs. per week, this would take an additional 12 weeks for a total of 16 weeks.
The equation doesn't make any sense. Does that parenthesis mean an equal sign? Also, none of the answer choices applies to the actual answer. To find the x, you need to add 39 with 146...
