Answer:

she messed up at -17=34x

Step-by-step explanation:

she added 8x to each side but she was actually supposed to subtract

The error is 8(x - 3) + 7 = 2x(13) and -17 = 34x.

4 - 17 = -13, not 13

8x - 17 = 26x

-17 = 26x -8

-17 = 18x ( it should be like this, but this is still wrong because it should -26)

The solution is:

8(x - 3) + 7 = 2x(4 - 17)

8(x - 3) + 7 = 2x(-13)

8x - 24 + 7 = -26x

8x - 17 = -26x

8x + 26x = 17

34x = 17

x = 17/34

x = 1/2

Hope it helps!

If the diameter of circle a measures half of the diameter of circle b, then the area of circle b is how many times the area of c

Eduardwww [97]

Circle b:

Diameter = x

Radius = $\frac{x}{2}$

Area = $\pi r^{2} = \pi ( \frac{x}{2} )^{2} = \frac{ \pi x^{2} }{4}$

Circle a:

Diameter = $\frac{x}{2}$

Radius = $\frac{x}{2} * \frac{1}{2} = \frac{x}{4}$

Area = $\pi r^{2} = \pi ( \frac{x}{4} )^{2} = \frac{ \pi x^{2} }{16}$

Thus,

Area of circle b to area of circle a

= $\frac{ \pi x^{2} }{4}$ ÷ $\frac{ \pi x^{2} }{16}$

= $\frac{ \pi x^{2} }{4}$ × $\frac{ 16 }{\pi x^{2}}$

= 4

Hence, the area of circle b is 4 times the area of circle a.

The Sugar Sweet Company is going to transport its sugar to market. It will cost $3500 to rent trucks, and it will cost an additi

lora16 [44]

Using the y = mx + b formula

C = 225s + 3500

Then to transport 19 tons

C = 225(19) + 3500

C = 4275 + 3500

C = 7775
