Answer:

3/4−49/40+x/8

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Eliminate redundant parentheses</u>

=(3/4−5/8)+(x/8−3/5)

= 3/4−5/8+x/8−3/5

<u>Subtract the numbers</u>

=3/4−5/8+x/8−3/5

=3/4−49/40+x/8

<u>ANSWER</u>

=3/4−49/40+x/8

galben [10]
For this case, what we are going to do is use the following property:
 Multiply an equation by a scalar.
 In this case, the scalar will be:
 k = -2
 We have then that equation 2 will be:
 k * (4x + y) = k * 1
 -2 * (4x + y) = - 2 * 1
 -8x-2y = -2
 Answer:
 The property that justifies this manipulation is:
 Multiply an equation by a scalar.

Vasko was renting a high performance bicycle for his Olympic training. Bicycle A is $25 per month and requires a down payment of
Agata [3.3K]
You need an equation system.

First, translate the text into equations :

y = total price for the bike
x = number of months

first bike :
y = 25x + 500

second bike :
y = 50x + 200

Then you have to solve the system by placing the two equations side by side and comparing them.

25x + 500 = 50x + 200

The linear equation that represent the situation is 3b - 6 = 45.

The value of b is 17.

<h3>How to represent a linear equation?</h3>

The situation forms a linear equation. Therefore,

y = mx + b

where

  • m = slope
  • b = y-intercept

Therefore, let's model the equation linearly,

where

  • b = number of books bought

She bought the book for $3 each and receive a discount of $6. The total money spent after the discount is $45.

Therefore, the equation is as follows

3b - 6 = 45

The value of b is as follows;

3b - 6 = 45

3b = 45 + 6

3b = 51

b = 51 / 3

b = 17
