This is a geometric sequence since there is a common ratio between each term. In this case, multiplying the previous term in the sequence by 2 gives the next term.
Answer:
2x+7
Step-by-step explanation:
To Simplify an Expression , we combine Like-Terms
So for our Question , we have Terms with x and Constant Term
Combine Terms with x : 5x-2x-x=2x
Constant Term : 7
Then 5x-2x+7-x = 2x+7
Answer:
x+6=y and 3x=12
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the distance traveled by Bryan and let y be the distance traveled by Sam then the first equation would be:
x+6=y (x plus 6 is equal to y, Bryan's distance plus 6 is equal to Sam's distance) and the second one is:
3x=12 (3 times x is 12, 3 times the distance travelled by Bryan is 12)
So our statements/equations are:
x+6=y and
3x=12 (we dont write this as x=4 as it asks us to give the statements we got from the information given, we only start simplifying once it tells us to solve)
