In the first series, the summation applies to the whole (2n+3) inside
the parentheses, so the 3 gets summed up 5 times.
But in the second one, the summation only applies to the 2n , so
the 3 is only added after the summation is finished.
The difference between five 3s the first time and one 3 the second time
is your 12 .
(-1,8) is the correct answer I’m pretty sure
Answer:
x = 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
= x + 7 ( multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction )
4x - 1 = 2(x + 7) ← distribute
4x - 1 = 2x + 14 ( subtract 2x from both sides )
2x - 1 = 14 ( add 1 to both sides )
2x = 15 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x =
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
There are many ways to approach this problem. I like a method that uses the least amount of computation. We could figure how much Wendy makes on a bag of chips, the additional amount Wendy wants to make, then divide the latter by the former to find the number of additional bags to sell.
We could use a proportion to figure the number of bags corresponding to $126 in earnings, then subtract the 72 bags already sold. Essentially, we will do this, but without the intermediate numbers.
__
The additional fraction of 72 bags will be ...
(126/108) -1 = 18/108 = 1/6
Then Wendy must sell an additional ...
(1/6)×(72 bags) = 12 bags
to increase her earnings to $126.
