The correct answer isw=1/2x
Answer:
x = 21
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 18 = 7x - 24
=> 5x - 7x = - 24 - 18
=> -2x = - 42
=> x = -42 / -2
=> x = 21
Hope it helps :)

Answer: A) 18.2 minutes
B) 4.5 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
A) Maxine can mow one lawn in 24 minutes, so the rate of work is:
1/24 of the lawn per minute.
Sammie can mow one lanw in 36 minutes, so the rate of work is:
1/36 of the lawn per minute.
The amount of the lawn that each has left to lawn by the minute x is:
Maxine = 1 -(1/24)*x
Sammie = 1 - (1/36)*x
we want to find the value of x such that:
2*(1 - (1/24)*x) = 1 - *(1/36)*x
which means that the amount that Sammie has left is two times the amount that Maxine has left to mow.
2 - (1/12)*x = 1 - (1/36)*x
2 - 1 = (1/12 - 1/36)*x
1/0.055 = x = 18.2
by the minute 18.2
B) Similar to before, here the rates are:
For Maxine, R = 1/6
For Sammie, R = 1/9
The amount they have left to mow by minute x is:
Maxine = 1 - (1/6)*x
Sammie = 1 - (1/9)*x
We want to solve, similar to before.
2( 1 - (1/6)*x) = 1 - (1/9)*x
2 - (1/3)*x = 1 - (1/9)*x
2 - 1 = (1/3 - 1/9)*x
1 = (2/9)*x
1*9/2 = x = 4.5
So here the solution is 4.5 minutes. Hope this helps
Answer:
3x(3x + 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
(4x2 - 2x) - (-5x2 - 8x)
= 4x2 - 2x + 5x2 + 8x.
= 4x2 + 5x2 - 2x + 8x.
= 9x2 + 6x.
= 3x(3x + 2).
I hope it is right.
