Answer:
c: add x to each side
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
-2x + 3 – (5 – 6x) = 4x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The given expression is :
-2x + 3 – (5 – 6x)
We need to simplify the above expression. First opening the brackets.
-2x + 3 – (5 – 6x) = -2x + 3 – 5 + 6x
Taking like terms together,
= -2x+6x + 3 -5
= 4x - 2
So, the simplified expression is 4x - 2.
Answer:
51 DVDs
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of DVDs and CDs sold be x each.
<u>Initial</u>
Number of DVDs= 86
Number of CDs= 52
<u>After selling</u>
Number of DVDs= 86 -x
Number of CDs= 52 -x
Given that there are 3 times as many DVDs than CDs left,
86 -x= 3(52 -x)
<em>Expand:</em>
86 -x= 156 -3x
<em>Bring x terms to 1 side, constant to the other:</em>
3x -x= 156 -86
<em>Simplify:</em>
2x= 70
<em>Divide both sides by 2:</em>
x= 35
Amount of DVDs left
= 86 -x
= 86 -35
= 51
24 ÷ 4 = 6
6 × 8 = 48
5 × 48 = 240
240 × 0.033814 = 8.11536
8.11536 fluid ounces should be purchased.
