Answer:
(-2x)-5x-9 = (-7x)-9
3x - 13 = 3x - 13 (you cannot simplify more)
Your question was wery wierd but i tried to answer best I could.
And also I dont know what you mean about "-+5"
Answer:
x+1+2x-6= 16
3x-5 =16
3x=16+5
3x=21
x=21/3
x= 7
VW= 2x-6 = 2(7) -6 = 14-6 = 8
X - Columbian coffee ( in pounds),
y - Brazilian coffee ( in pounds );
x + y = 100
8.85 x + 3.85 y = 6.55 ( x + y )
----------------------------------------
x = 100 - y
8.85 ( 100 - y ) + 3.85 y = 6.55 * 100
855 - 8.55 y + 3.85 y = 655
- 5 y = - 230
y = ( - 230 ) : ( - 5 )
y = 46
x = 100 - 46
x = 54
Answer: 54 pounds of Columbian coffee and 46 pounds of Brazilian coffee should be used.
Ok so let's start with what we know- the shortest piece is 8 inches so there's one length... then the middle piece is 6 inches longer than the shortest (6+ 8) so the middle piece would be 14 inches long. To find the last piece we can add up the other two pieces we know (14+8) which would be 22 and subtract that from how long the whole sandwich is (59-22) which would be 37 inches long. So in the end he shortest piece would be 8 inches, the middle 14 inches and the longest 37 inches.
