Answer:
d
Step-by-step explanation:
5x -2
Answer choices:
a. 2-5x
b. 3-5 +2x
c. 5x-2x
d. 2x-2+3x
a.
2-5x can be rewritten as -5x+2, which is not the same as 5x-2
b. 3-5 + 2x can be rewritten as -2 + 2x or 2x-2 which is not equivalent to 5x-2
c. 5x-2x is 3x
3x doesn't equal 5x-2
d. 2x+3x-2 = 5x-2
This expression is equivalent to 5x-2
The given equations are:
5x - 2y = 88
3x + 4y = 58
Multiplying the 1st equation by 2, we get the new set of equations as:
10x - 4y = 176
3x + 4y = 58
Adding the two equations, we get:
10x - 4y + 3x + 4y = 176 + 58
13x =234
x = 18
Using the value of x in 1st equation, we get:
5(18) - 2y = 88
- 2y = 88 -5(18)
-2y = -2
y = 1
So, the solution of the equation is (18, 1)
One kilometer is 1000 meters. One hour is 60 minutes, or six segments of 10 minutes each. If you can walk 1000 meters in 10 minutes, you can walk 6000 in an hour (that is REALLY fast, by the way)
Negative , you always put the biggest numbers value at the end
