To solve this, we simply need to break down the words and turn each part into an equation.
"Three times"
This shows that we will be multiplying 3 and something.
3*
"a number"
This shows that the number we will be multiplying 3 by is "n," which represents a number.
3*n or 3n
"plus 16"
This shows we will be adding 16 to the rest of the equation.
3n+16
Using the logic above, we can see that the equation to represent this is 3n+16.
Answer:
13
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+b
b= y-intercept
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
5(x-6)=2(x+3)
multiply
5*x and 5*6. 2*x and 2*3
5x-30=2x+6
minus 5x and 2x
3x-30=6
add 30 to 6
3x=36
divide both sides by 3 and the 3x cancels so 36÷3
x=12
Answer:
a > 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide by the coefficient of the variable. Since it is negative, the direction of the comparison must be reversed.
(-4a)/(-4) > (-32)/(-4)
a > 8
