Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation solved by Morgan, Dakota and Taylor expressed as 7x+5x+1=73, to get the value of x, the valid steps are as shown;
7x+5x+1=73
take the sum of 7x and 5x
12x+ 1 = 73
subtract 1 from both sides
12x+1-1 = 73-1
12x = 72
Divide both sides by 12
12x/12 = 72/12
x = 6
Based on the calculation above, the students with invalid first step is Dakota.
<em>Dakota added 5x with 1 to get 6x which is an invalid step because 1 is not attached to a variable x. A function cannot be added to a constant hence making his first step invalid.</em>
Answer:
For Company A to have a better deal, the truck must be driven more than 250 miles per day.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Rent per day of company A = $70
Per mile charges = $0.20
Let,
x be the number of miles.
A(x) = 0.20x + 70
Rent per day of company B = $20
Per mile charges = $0.40
B(x) = 0.40x + 20
For make Company A better deal,
A(x) > B(x)
0.20x+70 > 0.40+20
0.20x-0.40x>20-70
-0.20x>-50
Dividing both sides by -0.20

Hence,
For Company A to have a better deal, the truck must be driven more than 250 miles per day.
I can’t see the pic , im so sorry
To find population density, it is population / area.
The population is 6688, divided by the area of 16.
6688/16 = 418
So the population density is 418 people per sq mile.
Hi, you've asked an incomplete question. However, I inferred you need a brief explanation about The Collatz conjecture.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Put simply, what the Collatz conjecture unsolved problem entails is that if any positive number is picked and it is:
- An even number (eg 2, 4, 6,...), then if they are divided by 2, the new number gotten should undergo the same process (that is to be divided by 2), it is believed your calculation would finally end up at 1. For example, let's pick the number 6, (6÷2=4; repeating the process 4÷2=<u>1</u>)
- An odd number, then if they are multiplied by 3 and 1 is added to the result, it is believed that your calculation would finally end up at 1.
