Answer:

x = 10

General Formulas and Concepts:

Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

6(x - 1) = 9(x - 4)

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Distribute:                                   6x - 6 = 9x - 36
  2. Subtract 6x on both sides:        -6 = 3x - 36
  3. Isolate <em>x</em> term:                             30 = 3x
  4. Isolate <em>x</em>:                                      10 = x
  5. Rewrite:                                       x = 10

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                    6(10 - 1) = 9(10 - 4)
  2. Subtract:                              6(9) = 9(6)

Here we see that the 2 expressions are exactly the same.

∴ x = 10 is the solution to the equation.

Use inductive reasoning to describe the pattern. Then find the next two numbers in the pattern. 1, 4, 7, 10, . . .
Kisachek [45]

Option a: add 3 to the previous term; 13, 16

Explanation:

The sequence is 1, 4, 7, 10, ....

We need to determine the next two terms of the sequence.

Hence to find the next two terms, first we shall find the common difference between every two terms.

Common difference between 1 and 4 = 4-1=3

Similarly, common difference between 4 and 7 = 7-4=3

Common difference between 7 and 10 = 10-7=3

Hence, the common difference is 3.

So, the next two terms will also have the same common difference 3.

To determine the next two terms, first we shall add 3 to the term 10, we get,

10+3=13

Similarly, adding 3 to the term 13, we get,

13+3=16

Thus, the sequence is 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, .....

Thus, add 3 to the previous term; 13, 16

Hence, option a is the correct answer.

then multiply 0.18 * 75 to get 13.5

then add 15.5 + 75 to get the total meal price which is 88.5

Which answer choice shows the decimals in order from least to greatest
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

D.1.121, 1.21, 1.432, 1.53

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at it as money:

$1.12

$1.21

$1.43

$1.53

We know that D states the money from least to greatest.

Or

We can convert them to fractions by Decimals can be written in fraction form. To convert a decimal to a fraction, place the decimal number over its place value. For example, in 0.6, the six is in the tenths place, so we place 6 over 10 to create the equivalent fraction, 6/10. If needed, simplify the fraction.
