3(2x+1) If you multiply this out, you will get 6x+3.
A = 4(6x + 3)
A = 4(6x) + 4(3)
A = 24x + 12
The answer is 24x+12.
Simplifying
3a + 2b + c = 26
Solving
3a + 2b + c = 26
Solving for variable 'a'.
Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-2b' to each side of the equation.
3a + 2b + -2b + c = 26 + -2b
Combine like terms: 2b + -2b = 0
3a + 0 + c = 26 + -2b
3a + c = 26 + -2b
Add '-1c' to each side of the equation.
3a + c + -1c = 26 + -2b + -1c
Combine like terms: c + -1c = 0
3a + 0 = 26 + -2b + -1c
3a = 26 + -2b + -1c
Divide each side by '3'.
a = 8.666666667 + -0.6666666667b + -0.3333333333c
Simplifying
a = 8.666666667 + -0.6666666667b + -0.3333333333c
-5i/2i. is the answer because all you have to do is add the -5 and the i.
Part A: The discounted monthly fee is $22.49 (original cost of $29.99 multiplied by 75%, the amount the customer would pay since 25% is discounted.) Since you would also pay $44.99 for setup, your equation is $44.99+$22.49m
Part B: Add 1.08 (108%; the customer pays 100% of the cost plus 8% more for tax) to your equation for the sales tax. 1.08(44.99+22.49m)
Part C: Plug in 4 for m (m represents months).
1.08(44.99+22.49•4)
1.08(44.99+89.96)
1.08(134.95)
$145.75
