You have to distribute the 4 to the numbers in the parenthesese. So 4 times 3x which is 12x and 4 times 5 which is 20 so now you get 12x plus 20 equals 8. Now you have to subtract 20 from 8 which is -12 so now you have 12x=-12 now divide the 12 from x and 12 from -12 and so now you have x=-1
A similarity transformation is one or more rigid transformations (reflection, rotation, translation) followed by a dilation. When a figure is transformed by a similarity transformation, an image is created that is similar to the original figure.
Answer: 18 ≤ 6*S ≤ 30
Where S is the number of salmon fillets in one single package.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's define S as the number of salmon fillets in one package.
We know that it contains at least 3, and no more than 5, then we can write:
3 ≤ S ≤ 5
Now we want to know the total number of salmon fillets that could be on 6 packages, then if S is the number of salmon fillets in one package, 6*S will e the number of salmon fillets in 6 packages.
We can find this by multiplying the inequality:
3 ≤ S ≤ 5
by 6.
We get:
6*3 ≤ 6*S ≤ 6*5
18 ≤ 6*S ≤ 30
Then in 6 packages, we could have any number between 18 and 30 fillets of salmon.
