True because it wouldn’t have made since if it was false
<span>4.8 (x+4)=2.6
Use distributive property
4.8x + 19.2= 2.6
Subtract 19.2 from both sides
4.8x = -16.6
Divide 4.8 on both sides so that the only thing remaining on the left side is the variable x.
Final Answer: x = -3.458</span>
Answer:
<h3>A. 1 hour</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
If one cleaning company's cost can be calculated by the expression 75 + 50x, where x is the amount of hours they spend cleaning and another cleaning company's cost can be calculated using the expression 50 + 75x, then to calculate how long each company will have to clean to cost the same amount, we will equate both expression of the company cost and solve for x as shown;
On equating:
75 + 50x, = 75x + 50
collect like terms'
50x-75x = 50-75
-25x = -25
divide both sides by -25
-25x/-25 = -25/-25
x = 1
hence the number of hours each company will have to clean to cost the same amount is 1 hour
<span>31 would be the quotient.
The most simplified fraction would be 217/7.
