Answer:
Simplifying
x = -25
Step-by-step explanation:
Reorder the terms:
10x + -6(5 + 2x) = 20
10x + (5 * -6 + 2x * -6) = 20
10x + (-30 + -12x) = 20
Reorder the terms:
-30 + 10x + -12x = 20
Combine like terms: 10x + -12x = -2x
-30 + -2x = 20
Solving
-30 + -2x = 20
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '30' to each side of the equation.
-30 + 30 + -2x = 20 + 30
Combine like terms: -30 + 30 = 0
0 + -2x = 20 + 30
-2x = 20 + 30
Combine like terms: 20 + 30 = 50
-2x = 50
Divide each side by '-2'.
x = -25
3x - 5 1/2 is the expression
Answer: Rachel's prediction is faster than the actual unit rate, and Theadore's prediction is slower.
Let x = times in the pool
Let y = times in the basketball courts
42=3x+5y
x+y=12
Therefore y = 12-x
Subsitute for y
42 = 3x + 5(12-x)
42 = 3x + 60 -5x
Subtract 60
-18 = -2x
9 = x
The person used the pool 9 times.
Answer:
(0,0), (1,1), (2,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
When testing to find possible points in situations like this, I always start by testing with the origin point (0,0).
In this case:
4x+6y<24 ==> 0 + 0 < 24 TRUE, it satisfies the inequality.
We then try with (1,1):
4x+6y<24 ==> 4 + 6 < 24 TRUE, it satisfies the inequality.
And with (2,2):
4x+6y<24 ==> 8 + 12 < 24 TRUE, it satisfies the inequality.
