I believe its 27 cause u have to multiply 3 times 3 which is 9, then 3 times 9 which is 27
Answer:
250-5m=200+4m ; 5.56 months
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Let's start this question by writing two expressions that depict the situation.</u>
Vance: 250-5m
This simply means that Vance currently weighs 250 pounds, and every month he is losing 5 pounds. (m=number of months)
Phillip: 200+4m
This is essentially the same thing. Phillips starting weight is 200, but here we use an addition sign because he is gaining 4 pounds every month as opposed to losing it.
To find the number of months it'll take for them to weigh the same, we just need to equate the values and solve for m.
<u>Our equation would then be:</u>
250-5m=200+4m
Let's solve the equation by bringing the variables to one side and the numbers to the other.
250-5m=200+4m
Subtract 4m from both sides
250-5m-4m=200+4m-4m
250-9m=200
Subtract 250 from both sides
250-250-9m=200-250
-9m=-50
Divide both sides by -9
m=5.556
So it will take about 5 months and a half to weigh the same.
The answer is C. I tried factoring the equation itself, and I got the correct answer but I noticed that it isn’t one of the options. Therefore, the options are partly factored but not completely. I decided to just eliminate each of the multiple choice options. I got C after expanding it. Firstly, we need to distribute the 3 to (x-2). This gives us (3x-6)(x-2). After that, we can use the FOIL method. 3x^2 - 6x -6x + 12 is the same as 3x^2 - 12x + 12.
In case you want to see the fully factored polynomial, I won’t explain the steps since you don’t need it here, but it’s 3(x-2)^2. This is equivalent to 3(x-2)(x-2). That’s the same as C.
Answer:
p=2
Step-by-step explanation:
−4p=11−19
−4p=−8
then you divide both sides by -4 and two negatives make a positive.
