Answer:

Simplifying

6x + -3 = 2x + 13

Reorder the terms:

-3 + 6x = 2x + 13

Reorder the terms:

-3 + 6x = 13 + 2x

Solving

-3 + 6x = 13 + 2x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-3 + 6x + -2x = 13 + 2x + -2x

Combine like terms: 6x + -2x = 4x

-3 + 4x = 13 + 2x + -2x

Combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-3 + 4x = 13 + 0

-3 + 4x = 13

Add '3' to each side of the equation.

-3 + 3 + 4x = 13 + 3

Combine like terms: -3 + 3 = 0

0 + 4x = 13 + 3

4x = 13 + 3

Combine like terms: 13 + 3 = 16

4x = 16

Divide each side by '4'.

x = 4

Answer:

a = 5, b = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

By basic factoring, you get 9 - 12i + $4i^2$ . Since $i^2$ is simply -1, the expression evaluates to 9 - 12i - 4, which is 5 - 12i.

enyata [817]

Answer: 40G+8D ≤ 80; D must be at least 2 as stated in problem and can be up to 10, and you can have a maximum of 1 game book depending on how many dice sets you get (if you get more than 5 dice sets you cannot have any game books).

Step-by-step explanation: Since gaming books cost $40 so $40G for the amount of money spent and since sets of dice cost $8 so 8D for the money spent. Since the money spent must be less than or equal to 80 we put symbol at end.

Syracuse and New York City are 240 miles apart. One car left Syracuse heading for New York City at an average of 65 mph. A secon

bazaltina [42]

Let x be the distance from Syracuse where they pass. The first car travels a distance of x in time x/65 while the second car travels a distance 240-x in time (240-x)/55. They pass at the same time after leaving their starting points so x/65=(240-x)/55.
Cross-multiplying we get: 55x=65(240-x)=15600-65x, 120x=15600, x=15600/120=130 miles.
They pass 130 miles from Syracuse.
