Monday = X
Tuesday = X + 3 (Problem says three more hours than he worked on Monday)
Wednesday = 2x + 1
(Problem says he worked 1 hour more than two times the number of hours on monday)
This side of the equation would be -
X + (X +3) + (2X + 1)
That's monday plus tuesday plus wednesday.
Then you would set up the other side of the equation.
This would be the total number of hours so it would be equal to monday, tuesday and wednesday combined.
2 + (5x)
Two hours more than five times the amount of Monday (X)
Now we put this together to have an equation
X + (X + 3) + (2x+ 1) = 2 + 5x
Now we need to collect like terms
4x + 4 = 2 + 5x
I just simplified the left side of the equation
Now I will subtract 4x from the left side to get all the variables on one side
4 = 2 + x
Now I subtract 2 to get the numbers both on one side
2 = x
So, Colby worked 2 hours on Monday.
Answer:
940800 different ways to create the committee.
Step-by-step explanation:
1 chosen from 100 leaves 98 to chose from on the second pick because the other senator from the same state is also eliminated. The second choice leaves 96 available for the third selection.
So multiply 100×98×96=940800
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
3x+7+8x+2x+4+5
13x+7+4+5
13x+16
For this case we have that by definition:
So:
We apply distributive property that states that:
In addition, we take into account that:
