Answer:

20x-12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

7(3x−1)−(x+5)

Step 1: Distribute the Negative Sign:

=7(3x−1)+−1(x+5)

=7(3x−1)+−1x+(−1)(5)

=7(3x−1)+−x+−5

Step 2: Distribute:

=(7)(3x)+(7)(−1)+−x+−5

=21x+−7+−x+−5

Step 3: Combine

=21x+−7+−x+−5

=(21x+−x)+(−7+−5)

=20x+−12

Check description

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember, P.E.M.D.A.S. Parenthesis first so 3x-1 and x+5. Not given enough information, I cannot give you the correct answer so instead, I will give you the equations you will have to do and these are not all in the order of what you have to do, but most of them are. Just follow P.E.M.D.A.S. if you know what to do. (I will put letters as answers)

step 1: (3x-1)

3 times x = Q

Q minus 1 = P

step 2: (x+5)

x plus 5 = E

step 3: 7xP

7 times P = W(The one from step 1)

step 4: W-E

W-E= A

A survey found that 12 out of every 15 people prefer eating out over cooking. If 500 people took the survey, how many people pre

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

400 people

Step-by-step explanation:

15 = 12

500 = x

Cross multiply

15x = 12 × 500

Divide both sides by 15

$\frac{15x}{15}$ = $\frac{12 * 500}{15}$ (* means multiplication if you do not know)

$\frac{12 * 500}{15}$ = 100 × 4= 400 people

Which card has the solution x = 23?

I need a photo but ill give you some information this will be with exponents.

Write down the problem. Here it is:

2^2(x+3) + 9 - 5 = 32

Resolve the exponent. Remember the order of operations: PEMDAS, which stands for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, and Addition/Subtraction. You can't resolve the parentheses first because x is in the parentheses, so you should start with the exponent, 2^2.2^2 = 4

4(x+3) + 9 - 5 = 32

Do the multiplication. Just distribute the 4 into (x +3). Here's how:

4x + 12 + 9 - 5 = 32

Do the addition and subtraction. Just add or subtract the remaining numbers. Here's how:

4x+21-5 = 32

4x+16 = 32

4x + 16 - 16 = 32 - 16

4x = 16

Isolate the variable. To do this, just divide both sides of the equation by 4 to find x. 4x/4 = x and 16/4 = 4, so x = 4.

4x/4 = 16/4

x = 4

Check your work. Just plug x = 4 back into the original equation to make sure that it checks out. Here's how:
