The function representing the number of ounces is:
2x - 3
Now, we are given the number of ounces = 7
Therefore:
2x - 3 = 7
We will solve this equation for x as follows:
2x-3 = 7
2x = 7 + 3
2x = 10
x = 5
Therefore, the number line representing this function will be the line having a solution ending at 5 (5 is included).
Therefore, the correct choice would be line B
Answer:
Unit Price= $1.18
The error is that the contractor divided $99.12 by 7 and didn't multiply the 7 by the dozen (12) first, which lead to a mistake.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the unit price:
1) multiply 7x12 = 84
to get the total amount of gloves
2) divide 99.12 by 84
to get the unit price
Answer:
Tip $6
Total Amount $36
Step-by-step explanation:
20% of $30 is 6
$30 + $6 = 36
There are 128 ounces in a gallon.
We have the expression

We have to convert the expression in a single-term expression. We apply the distributive property:

b) We have to substitute five different values into the expressions 5x+2x and 7x-1.
The first expression is equal to 5x+2x=7x.
We then can predict that the difference between 7x and 7x-1 is 1.
For example, for x=2, we have 7x=7*2=14 and 7x-1=7*2-1=14-1=13.
We can calculate if the two expressions can be equal, we write:

There is no value that can make both expressions equal.
Both equations have a difference of 1 for any value of x.
