Answer:

x=9

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute -3 into (x-5)

-3x+15+4x=24

then combine like terms

x+15=24

isolate the variable and subtract 15 from both sides

x=9

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-3(x-5)+4x=24

Multiply the -3 with the stuff in the ( ) and you get -3x+15 since a negative and a negative equal a positive the 15 is positive so now you have -3x+15+4x =24 now you add like terms and you have 1x+15=24 then -15 from both sides so 15-(-15) cancels out then 24-15=9 then you have 1x=9 divide the 1x end the answer is x=9

Which of the following best describes the graph of this system of equations ? y=-2x+3 and 5y=-10x +15
ELEN [110]

Remark

When talking about straight lines, D is never true. Never.

C is possible, but in this case not true. Read on.

B. Might be true but in this case it is not. The lines (to be parallel) have to have the same number in front of the x. These two lines do when you divide through by 5. But the y intercept has to be different. That is not so in this case. So B is incorrect.

A is your answer. If you divide through by 5 on the second one, you get the first one. They are identical.

A county has a goal to build 12,000 bus stop shelters in 48 months . If the county builds 215 bus shelters each month , will it
Leokris [45]

Answer:

No, it will not reach its goal.

Step-by-step explanation:

The main reason why it will not meet its goal is because if you do the math, 215 x 48 does not equal 12000, it equals 10320 which is just 1680 shelters low. Therefore, they will not meet their goal.
