Answer:

x = 4

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

  1. Brackets
  2. Parenthesis
  3. Exponents
  4. Multiplication
  5. Division
  6. Addition
  7. Subtraction
  • Left to Right

<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Equality Properties
  • Combining Like Terms

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define Equation</u>

2(6x + 4) - 6 + 2x = 3(4x + 3) + 1

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Distribute:                                   12x + 8 - 6 + 2x = 12x + 9 + 1
  2. Combine like terms:                   14x + 2 = 12x + 10
  3. Subtract 12x on both sides:       2x + 2 = 10
  4. Subtract 2 on both sides:          2x = 8
  5. Divide 2 on both sides:              x = 4

Cell phone plan A costs 79 per month and comes with a free 500 phone. Cell phone plan B costs 50 per month but does not come wit
meriva

Answer: it will take 25 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of months that it will take for the cost of both plans to be the same.

Cell phone Plan A costs $70 per month and comes with a free $500 phone. This means that the total cost of x months with plan A would be

70 × x = $70x

Cell phone plan B costs 50 per month but does not come with a phone. If you buy the 500 phone and choose plan B, then the total cost of x months with plan B would be

500 + 50 × x = 500 + 50x

To determine the number of months until your cost is the same as Plan A's, we would equate both costs. It becomes

70x = 500 + 50x

70x - 50x = 500

20x = 500

x = 500/20 =25

The question above was not written properly

Complete Question

Lacey and Haley are rewriting expressions in an equivalent, simpler form.

a. Haley simplified x³⋅ x² and got

x⁵

Lacey simplified x³ + x² and got the same result! However, their teacher told them that only one simplification is correct. Who simplified correctly and how do you know?

b. Haley simplifies 3⁵⋅ 4⁵ and gets the result 12^10, but Lacey is not sure.

Is Haley correct? Be sure to justify your answer.

Answer:

a) Haley is correct, Lacey simplified wrongly.

b) Haley is incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Haley simplified x³⋅ x² and got

x⁵

Lacey simplified x³ + x² and got the same result! However, their teacher told them that only one simplification is correct. Who simplified correctly and how do you know?

For Question a, when it comes to simplifying algebraic expression that has to do with powers, there are certain rules that should be followed.

For example

x^a × x^b = x^(a + b)

For Haley, she simplified x³⋅ x² and got

x⁵

She is correct because this follows the product rule of powers or exponents above

= x³⋅ x² = x³+² = x⁵

For Lacey she is wrong because:

x³ + x² ≠ x⁵

x³ + x² when simplified as quadratic equation = x²(x + 1)

b. Haley simplifies 3⁵⋅ 4⁵ and gets the result 12^10, but Lacey is not sure.

Is Haley correct? Be sure to justify your answer.

For question b, when we have two distinct or different numbers with the same power(exponents) the rule states that:

x^a × y^a = (x × y)^a = (xy)^a

Haley is simplified wrongly. She did not apply the rule above

Haley simplified 3⁵⋅ 4⁵ = (3 × 4) ⁵+⁵

= 12^10, this is wrong.

The correct answer according to the rule =

3⁵⋅ 4⁵ = (3 × 4) ⁵ = 12⁵

Therefore,

3⁵⋅ 4⁵ ≠ 12^10

3⁵⋅ 4⁵ = 12⁵

Haley is wrong.
