You are using the distributive property so you will multiply all the numbers in the parentheses by 5. So the end expression would be 30m+20n-15p

How to find when,<br>y=-1/3x - 3<br>

Montano1993 [528]

The -3 would be where your line crosses the y-axis, so you would plot your point at -3. your slope will always be counted as rise/run, basically meaning you would count along the y-axis a certain amount of times, in this case -1, and along the x-axis a certain amount of times, here would be three. your next plot point would be (3,-4) and so on. hope this helped!

The sum of the digits of a three-digit number is 11. If the digits are reversed, the new number is 46 more than five times the o

lara [203]

Answer:

731

Explanation for problem:

"The sum of the digits of a three-digit number is 11."

x + y + z = 11

The three digit number = 100x + 10y + z

The reversed number = 100z + 10y + x

" If the digits are reversed, the new number is 46 more than five times the old number."

100z + 10y + x = 5(100x + 10y + z) + 46

100z + 10y + x = 500x + 50y + 5z + 46

combine on the right

0 = 500x - x + 50y - 10y + 5z - 100z + 46

499x + 40y - 95z = -46

"the hundreds digit plus twice the tens digit is equal to the units digit,"

x + 2y = z

x + 2y - z = 0

Three equations, 3 unknowns

x + y + z = 11

x +2y - z = 0

-----------------Addition eliminates z

2x + 3y = 11

From the 2nd equation statement, we know that the 1st original digit has to be 1

2(1) + 3y = 11

3y = 11 - 2

3y = 9

y = 3 is the 2nd digit

then

1 + 3 + z = 11

z = 11 - 4

z = 7

137 is the original number

Check solution in the 2nd statement

If the digits are reversed, the new number is 46 more than five times the old number."

731 = 5(137) + 46

731 = 685 + 46

Answer:

5 (for c only)

Step-by-step explanation:

for c:

1st cleaning company: $y=17x+15$

2nd cleaning company: $y=20x$

set up as a system of equations. for them to cancle out make the y of one equation negative. I'll be making the second one negative ( it doesn't matter though)

it will look like:

$y=17x+15$

$-y=-20x$
