Leni [432]

Answer:

Option D.) x + 2x − 3 = 26

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ------> the length of Nate's car

y ------> the length of Maya's car

we know that

x+y=26 -----> equation A

y=2x-3 ----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A and solve for x

x+(2x-3)=26

3x=26+3

x=29/3 in

Find the value of y

y=2(29/3)-3

y=(58/3)-3

y= 49/3 in

On Sunday, a local hamburger shop sold a combined total of 378 hamburgers and cheeseburgers. The number of cheeseburgers was sol

ipn [44]

Answer:

The number of hamburgers sold was 126.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h = number of hamburgers sold

let c = cheeseburgers sold

c+h = 378

c = 2h

Substitute c =2h into c+h =278

c+h =378

2h+h = 378

Combine like terms

3h = 378

Divide by 3

3h/3 =378/3

h =126

The number of hamburgers sold was 126.

Which equation has infinite solutions?

AnnyKZ [126]

The equation that has an infinite number of solutions is $2x + 3 = \frac{1}{2}(4x + 2) + 2$

<h3>How to determine the equation?</h3>

An equation that has an infinite number of solutions would be in the form

a = a

This means that both sides of the equation would be the same

Start by simplifying the options

3(x – 1) = x + 2(x + 1) + 1

3x - 3 = x + 3x + 2 + 1

3x - 3 = 4x + 3

Evaluate

x = 6 ----- one solution

x – 4(x + 1) = –3(x + 1) + 1

x - 4x - 4 = -3x - 3 + 1

-3x - 4 = -3x - 2

-4 = -2 ---- no solution

$2x + 3 = \frac{1}{2}(4x + 2) + 2$

2x + 3 = 2x + 1 + 2

2x + 3 = 2x + 3

Subtract 2x

3 = 3 ---- infinite solution

Hence, the equation that has an infinite number of solutions is $2x + 3 = \frac{1}{2}(4x + 2) + 2$
