<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Terms/Coefficients

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify</em>

3x + 5(2 + x) = 4x - 7

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

  1. [Distributive Property] Distribute 5:                                                                 3x + 10 + 5x = 4x - 7
  2. [Addition] Combine like terms:                                                                        8x + 10 = 4x - 7
  3. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 4x on both sides:                      4x + 10 = -7
  4. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 10 on both sides:                       4x = -17
  5. [Division Property of Equality] Divide 4 on both sides:                                  x = -17/4

Answer:

x=\frac{-17}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3x+5(2+x)=4x−7

3x+(5)(2)+(5)(x)=4x+−7(Distribute)

3x+10+5x=4x+−7

(3x+5x)+(10)=4x−7(Combine Like Terms)

8x+10=4x−7

8x+10=4x−7

Step 2: Subtract 4x from both sides.

8x+10−4x=4x−7−4x

4x+10=−7

Step 3: Subtract 10 from both sides.

4x+10−10=−7−10

4x=−17

Step 4: Divide both sides by 4.

\frac{4x}{4}=\frac{-17}{4}

x=\frac{-17}{4}

Javier and his friends go out to eat. The restaurant they chose automatically adds a 15% gratuity to their food bill since they
siniylev [52]

well, we know that 213.90 includes the 15% gratuity, so if the meal price was say "x", namely that is the 100%, and we add 15% to that, then 100% + 15% = 115%, so 213.90 is really the 115%.

now, if 213.90 is the 115.%, what is "x"?  the 100%.


\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 213.90&115\\ x&100 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{213.9}{x}=\cfrac{115}{100}\implies 21390=115x \\\\\\ \cfrac{21390}{115}=x\implies 186=x


so since we know the meal without the tip is 186 bucks, the tip was then 213.90 - 186 = 27.90.

but they got extra potato wedges with butter and the waitress was wearing her best hat, they added $20 more, so the tip ended  up as 27.90 + 20 = 47.90.

now, if the cost of the meal was $186 and that is the 100%, what is 47.90 off of it in percentage?


\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 186&100\\ 47.90&x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{186}{47.90}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies 186x=4790 \\\\\\ x=\cfrac{4790}{186}\implies x\approx \stackrel{\%}{25.75}

Written as a simplified polynomial in standard form, what is the result when (x-8)^2
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

26x-67-x²

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

(10x - 3) - (x - 8) {}^{2}

Expanding (x-8)²=x²-16x+64

10x-3-(x²-16x+64)

10x-3-x²+16x-64

26x-67-x²
