Answer:
brainliest plzzzzz
Step-by-step explanation:
2(x-2) - 3(x-4)
Simplify:
2(x-2)-3(x-4)
2x-4-3(x-4)
Distribute:
2x-4-3(x-4)
2x-4-3x+12
Add the numbers:
2x-4-3x+12
2x+8-3x
Combine like terms:
2x+8-3x
-x+8
Hence Solution = -x+8
Answer:
There needs to be 300 liters of Drink A and 270 liters of Drink B
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a = the amount of Drink A and b = the amount of Drink B
Multiplying a number by 0.2 is the same as calculating 20% of it and same goes with 15% and 0.15. This makes our equation for the amount of fruit juice:
0.2a + 0.15b = 100.5
We know what the difference between a and b will be 30 liters so:
a - b = 30
Now we have our system of equations
To cancel out a, we can multiply the first equation by -5 so we will now have:
-a - 0.75b = -502.5
a - b = 30
Adding these two equations together, we get:
-1.75b = -472.5
Both sides are negative, so we can take the negative signs away.
1.75b = 472.5
Now divide both sides by 1.75
b = 270
Plugging 270 into b, we have:
a - b = 30
a - 270 = 30
Add 270 to both sides
a = 300
There needs to be 300 liters of Drink A and 270 liters of Drink B
Answer: 7/12 portion
Explanation:
Jack can paint:
1 house = 3hr
1/3 portion= 1hr
Jill can paint:
1 house = 4hr
1/4 portion = 1hr
Both of them together can paint in 1 hour:
1/3 + 1/4 = 3/12 + 4/12 = 7/12 portion in 1hr
