First, we start with the equation that the problem told us, which is:
R + 6 = 2 * (x + 6)
Then, we distribute the two:
R + 6 = 2x + 12
Now, we put R on its own side.
R = 2x +6
So, the answer must be C, 2x + 6
Answer:
3 3/7 or 24/7 mins
Step-by-step explanation:
Let total job = X
Jeff's rate = X/6
Bob's rate = X/8
Combined rate = X/6 + X/8
(4X × 3X)/24 = 7X/24
7X/24 = X/T
T = X ÷ (7X/24)
T = X × (24/7X)
T = 24/7 mins
Shortcut:
T = product of individual times/sum of individual times
T = (6×8)/(6+8)
T = 48/14
T = 24/7
T = 3 3/7 mins
1. incorrect
2. correct
3. incorrect (?)
Answer:
Increase
Step-by-step explanation:
The researcher records the following estimates: 450, 426, 310, 500, and 220.
The mean of these estimates is derived below.
Mean = (450+426+310+500+220)/5
=1906/5=381.2
If the researcher removes the estimate of 220.
The mean of the other numbers will be:
Mean =(450+426+310+500)/4
=1686/4=421.5
By comparison of the two mean, we can see that the value of the mean will increase.
Answer:
Please check the explanation below.
Step-by-step explanation:
Some of the properties are defined as:
- <em>Distributive property</em>

For example,
suppose a=3, b=4, c=5
3(4+5) = 3(4) + 3(5)
3(9) = 12+15
27 = 27
- <em>Subtraction property of Equality</em>
if (a=b), then a-c = b-c
For example,
suppose a=2, b=2, c=5
if a = b ⇒ 2 = 2
then a-c = b-c ⇒ 2-5 = 2- 5 ⇒ -3 = -3
- <em>Addition property of Equality</em>
if (a=b), then a+c = b+c
For example,
suppose a=2, b=2, c=5
if a = b ⇒ 2 = 2
then a+c = b+c ⇒ 2+3 = 2+3 ⇒ 5 = 5
- <em>Multiplicative property of Equality</em>
if (a=b), then a×c = b×c
For example,
suppose a=2, b=2, c=5
if a = b ⇒ 2 = 2
then a×c = b×c ⇒ 2×5 = 2 × 5 ⇒ 10 = 10
- <em>Division property of Equality</em>
if (a=b), then a÷c = b÷c
For example,
suppose a=2, b=2, c=5
if a = b ⇒ 2 = 2
then a÷c = b÷c ⇒ 2÷5 = 2 ÷ 3 ⇒ 2/5 = 2/5
Let us solve the given equation using the above properties.
7n-16=47 Given
7n-16+16=47+16 1) Addtion property of Equality ∵ if (a=b), then a+c = b+c
7n=63 2) simplify
n = 9 3) Division property of Equality ∵ if (a=b), then a÷c = b÷c
