Pull out 3 (common factor):
3(y-6)
A) 3(y-6) is the correct answer
Answer:
ear
Step-by-step explanation:
first speed --- x mph
return speed -- x+16 mph
6/x + 6/(x+16) = 1
times each term by x(x+16)
6(x+16) + 6x = x(x+16)
x^2 + 4x - 96 = 0
(x-8)(x+12) = 0
x = 8 or x is a negative
her first speed was 8 mph
her return speed was 24 mph
check:
6/8 + 6/24 = 1 , that's good!
The smallest number of pens he can buy is 4 packages
Answer:
x = 2
Explanation:
2(x+2)-5=3(x-1)
1) Use distributive property (multiply the 2 by x+2 and the 3 by x-1)
2x+4-5=3x-3
2) Combine like terms
2x-1=3x-3
3) Subtract 2x on both sides
-1=x-3
4) Add 3 on both sides
2=x
hope this helps!
