Answer:
The first one is equivalent [the 6x+48 = 2(3x+24)] and the second one is <u>NOT</u> equivalent [the 7x+21 ≠ 2(5x+3)]
Step-by-step explanation:
Just follow distributive property to solve these. You can ignore the first expression in both until you have to compare the answers.
1. 6x+48 and 2(3x+24)
2(3x+24) ---> 2(3x) + 2(24) ---> <u>6x + 48</u>
Bring in the first expression ~ <u>6x+48 and 6x+48 </u>
They are the same, so they are equivalent
2. 7x+21 and 2(5x+3)
2(5x+3) ---> 2(5x) + 2(3) ----> 10x + 6
Bring in the first expression ~ <u>7x+21 and 10x + 6</u>
They are NOT the same, so they are NOT equivalent
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
1/5 of 30 is 30/5 = 6
1/2 of (30 -6) = 12 . . . half of those remaining after mint icing
The other half of those remaining is also 12 cupcakes. So, 12 cupcakes will get vanilla icing.
Answer:
A. {x,y}={-2,-3}
// Solve equation [2] for the variable x
[2] x = 2y + 4
// Plug this in for variable x in equation [1]
[1] (2y+4) - y = 1
[1] y = -3
// Solve equation [1] for the variable y
[1] y = - 3
// By now we know this much :
x = 2y+4
y = -3
// Use the y value to solve for x
x = 2(-3)+4 = -2
B. [1] 3x=3y-6
[2] y=x+2
Equations Simplified or Rearranged :
[1] 3x - 3y = -6
[2] -x + y = 2
Solve by Substitution :
// Solve equation [2] for the variable y
[2] y = x + 2
// Plug this in for variable y in equation [1]
[1] 3x - 3•(x +2) = -6
[1] 0 = 0 => Infinitely many solutions

System of Linear Equations entered :
[1] 4x - y = 2
[2] 8x - 2y = 4
Solve by Substitution :
// Solve equation [1] for the variable y
[1] y = 4x - 2
// Plug this in for variable y in equation [2]
[2] 8x - 2•(4x-2) = 4
[2] 0 = 0 => Infinitely many solutions
Answer:
A. (0, 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+b
y=7x+4
7x<-- mx
4<-- b
b=y intercept
