Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, we would set the first number to x, and make an equation.

<u>Solve for x.</u>

x + (x - 6) + 3x = 69.

<u>Add and combine like terms.</u>

2x + 3x - 6 = 69

5x - 6 = 69

<u>Add 6 to each side of the equation.</u>

5x = 75

Divide by 5 to both sides.

x = 15

<u>The first number is 15.</u>

<u>The second number is (x - 6) = (15 - 6) = 9.</u>

<u>The third number is 3x = 3(15) = 45.</u>

Find the Greatest Common Factor of Two or More Expressions
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

The GCF is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

In my opinion, one of the easier ways to find the greatest common factor of two numbers is to get the prime factors of both and multiply the common ones. The prime factorization of 8 is 2*2*2, and the prime factorization of 162 is 2*3*3 (you can make a factor tree for both of these numbers to verify this). The only common prime factor for both of these numbers is 2, which means the greatest common factor of 8 and 18 is 2.

Select steps that could be used to solve the equation 1 + 3x = -x + 4.
Olegator [25]

Answer:

A, C & D

Step-by-step explanation:

A) 1 + 3x = -x + 4  {subtract 1}

  1 + 3x -1 = -x + 4 - 1

       3x     = -x + 3         {add x}

     3x + x = -x + 3 + x

        4x    = 3       {Divide by 4}

       4x/x = 3/4

x = 3/4

C) 1 + 3x = -x +4            {Add x}

  1+ 3x + x = - x +4 + x      

   1 + 4x  = 4    {subtract 1}

        4x = 4 - 1

        4x = 3   {Divide by 4}

D) 1 + 3x = -x + 4        { Subtract 3x}

         1    = -x + 4 -3x

         1 = -4x + 4          Subtract 4}

      1 - 4 = -4x

        -3 = -4x              {Divide by -4}

       -3/-4 = x

x = 3/4  

          x = 3/4

Help me please. I really need help
artcher [175]

Answer:

B.  $42.60.

Step-by-step explanation:

On the first day  price is 43.85 + 2.70 = $46.55

second  day       price is 46.55 + 2.70 = $49.25

For the next 2 days  it goes down $1.10 so the price is  $49.25 - 2.20=$47.05

On the last day it loses $4.45 so the final  price is  $47.05-4.45 =  $42.60.
