8(x-3)=8x-24
8x-24=8x-24
8x=8x
x=x
Since x just has to equal itself and not a specific number, there are C, infinitely many solutions to this equation.

Answer:

infinitely many solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is 8(x-3)=8x-24

Distribute 8 over the parenthesis in the left hand side

8x-24 = 8x-24

Group the like terms

8x-8x=-24+24

Combine like term

0 = 0

We got a true result, 0 = 0.

Hence, the equations have infinitely many solutions.

The amount of caffeine consumed from a glass of Diet Pepsi is proportional to the number of ounces that was drank. The table bel

Vilka [71]

Answer:

Constant of proportionality: $k=3$

Equation: $c=3d$

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, Direct proportion equations have the following form:

$y=kx$

Where "k" is the Constant of proportionality.

In this case, let be "c" the the amount of caffeine consumed (in mg) from a glass of Diet Pepsi and "d" the number of ounces that was drank.

So, the equation that represents this relationship will have this form:

$c=kd$

Then, the first step is to find the Constant of proportionality "k".

Knowing that:

$c=24;d=8$

We can substitute values into the equation:

$24=k(8)$

Now, solving for "k", we get:

$\frac{24}{8}=k\\\\k=3$

Therefore, we can write the following equation that represents that proportional relationship:

$c=3d$

A patrolman spends three times as many hours patrolling as she does completing paper work. If she works 36 hours per week, how m

fomenos

Answer:

27 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let her work "x" hours for paperwork

Since, patrolling amount of hours is THREE TIMES that,

Patrolling = 3x hours

Total Hours = 36

That is including paperhour work (x) and patrolling (3x). So we can setup an equation in x and solve for x first:

x + 3x = 36

4x = 36

x = 36/4

x = 9 hours

Amount of Hours for Patarolling = 3x hours = 3(9) = 27 hours

So, she spends 27 hours patrolling
