Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define Equation</u>

7(2x - 5) = 21

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Distribute 7:                   2x - 5 = 3
  2. Isolate <em>x</em> term:                2x = 8
  3. Isolate <em>x</em>:                         x = 4

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                  7(2(4) - 5) = 21
  2. Multiply:                             7(8 - 5) = 21
  3. Subtract:                            7(3) = 21
  4. Multiply:                             21 = 21

Here we see that 21 does indeed equal 21.

∴ x = 4 is the solution to the equation.

Please help with 6 and 7
Maru [420]

Answer:

6a) i- 2hrs 36mins  ii- 3hrs 12mins

b) car A≈ 76.9km/h  car B≈ 62.5km/h

c)------

7a) 35km

b) car A=75km  car B=60km

c) 30km

d) car A≈36mins  car B≈48mins

Step-by-step explanation:

6a) Using the graph follow the lines until they finish then go downwards until you get to the x-axis. The x-axis is going up by 12mins for each square.

b) Using the answer from a, you divide 200km by the time.

For car A 2hrs 36mins becomes 2.6 because 36mins/60mins=0.6

∴ car A: 200/2.6≈ 76.92km/h

For car B 3hrs 12mins becomes 3.2 because 12mins/60mins=0.2

∴ car B: 200/3.2≈ 62.5km/h

7a) Using the graph go down from where the line of car A finished to meet car B. The y-axis is going up by 5km for each square.

b) Starting from the x-axis at 1 hour go upwards to see where you meet the car B line (60km) and car A line(75km). (sorry if that does not really make sense).

c) Difference from car A line to car B:

155km-125km=30km

d) Going across from 50km meet car A line and go down to see it has been travelling for approx. 36mins. Then continue across to car B line, go down to see it reached 50km at approx. 48mins.

Hope this helps.
