Answer: x = 10
Explanation: To solve this equation for <em>x</em>, we start by distributing the 2 through the parentheses on the left side.
So we have 2 times <em>x</em> which is 2x and 2 times -3 which is -6. So our equation now reads 2x - 6 = 14.
Solving from here,
we add 6 to both sides of the equation and we have 2x = 20 and dividing both sides by 2, we find that <em>x = 10</em>.
We can check our answer by substituting a 10 back in for <em>x</em> in the original equation and we have 2(10 - 3) = 14.
10 - 3 is 7 so we have 2(7) = 14 or 14 = 14 which is a true statement so our answer checks.
Step-by-step explanation:
It came from nowhere. It makes no sense to add up the balance numbers. To illustrate, let's use a different example:
![\left[\begin{array}{cc}Spend&Balance\\100&400\\100&300\\100&200\\100&100\\100&0\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7DSpend%26Balance%5C%5C100%26400%5C%5C100%26300%5C%5C100%26200%5C%5C100%26100%5C%5C100%260%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Adding up the money you spent, and you get $500. Add up the balances, and you get $1000. But why would you add the balances? The 300 in the second line is included in the 400 in the first line. You can't add them together. You'd be counting the 300 twice.
Answer:
4,1
Step-by-step explanation:
(x-4)(x-1)
x=4 or x=1
To get this, take 0.10 x 145 = 14.5
sara speed is half of Jeanette's so if jeanette ran 7 miles then her walking speed is 3.5MPH and sense she is 7 miles ahed sara is 10.5 miles behind... 3.5MPH which is jeanette speed is double than sara so 3.5/2 is 1.75MPH... Saras walking speed is 1.75MPH
