Answer:
look for patterns also, Ann purchased 12 apples
Step-by-step explanation:
x apples
1/3 of x, (x - x/3) = (3x - x) /3 = 2x/3
Number of people who shared (2x/3) = 4 with each getting 2Total number shared = 4 * 2 = 8Fraction shared = total shared2x/3 = 8Multiply both sides by 3(2x/3) * 3 = 8 * 32x = 24x = 12
1(1)/(4)-:3= 5/12
5/12 of a cup or 0.146 with a bar on top because the 6 goes on forever.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Let
and 
<u>Determine slope</u>
<u />
<u>Use either ordered pair to find the y-intercept</u>
<u />
<u>Final equation</u>
<u />
5x−12=−2+5(x−2)
multiply 5 by all in parentheses first
5x - 12= -2 + (5*x) + (5*-2)
5x - 12= -2 + 5x - 10
5x - 12= 5x - 12
if you subtract 5x from one side and add 12 to the other the solution is:
0= 0
This equation is one that is always true. No matter what number you put in for x, it will always be true.
Example:
5x - 12= 5x - 12
5(4) - 12= 5(4) - 12
20 - 12= 20 - 12
8= 8
Example:
5(-100) - 12= 5(-100) - 12
-500 - 12= -500 - 12
-512= -512
This will happen no matter what number x is.
ANSWER: D) All values of x make the equation true.
Hope this helps! :)
