The answer would be -15x+36. To solve this equation, you would first use distributive property and distribute the -9 to the values inside the parentheses (or multiply them). So, you would multiply -9 and x and -9 and -4 to get -9x+36-6x. Then, you combine like terms, which are -9x and -6x to get -15x. You can't simplify any further without knowing the value of x. Hope this helps!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>System A and System B are </em></u><u><em>not equivalent</em></u> !!!
First you have to solve both inequalities,
3x-1>8
3x>9
x>3
and the other one
2x≤4
x≤2
then you graph each one on the number line
the graph says or, so the solution can satisfy either equation
the solution would be all real numbers except three
the way to write it is x≠3
Answer:584
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:10 gallons of 30% solution and 30 gallons of 70% solution should be mixed.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of gallons of the 30% solution that should be mixed.
Let y represent the number of gallons of the 70% solution that should be mixed.
The total number of gallons of the mixture to be made is 40. This means that
x + y = 40
The 30% solution of fertilizer is to be mixed with a 70% solution of fertilizer in order to get 40 gallons of a 60% solution. This means that
0.3x + 0.7y = 0.6 × 40
0.3x + 0.7y = 24- - - - - - - - - - - - - -1
Substituting x = 40 - y into equation 1, it becomes
0.3(40 - y) + 0.7y = 24
12 - 0.3y + 0.7y = 24
- 0.3y + 0.7y = 24 - 12
0.4y = 12
y = 12/0.4
y = 30
x = 40 - y = 40 - 30
x = 10
