Mathematics

Step-by-step explanation:

2x^2 + 6x = 2x^2 + 15

2x^2-2x^2+6x=15

6x = 15

x= 5/2 when simplified

Answer: x = 5/2 = 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given expression</u>

2x (x + 3) = 2x² + 15

<u>Expand parentheses and apply the distributive property</u>

2x · x + 2x · 3 = 2x² + 15

2x² + 6x = 2x² + 15

<u>Subtract 2x² on both sides</u>

2x² + 6x - 2x² = 2x² + 15 - 2x²

6x = 15

<u>Divide 6 on both sides</u>

6x / 6 = 15 / 6

x = 15/6

\boxed{x=\frac{5}{2} }

Hope this helps!! :)

4. JKLM is a parallelogram. Find JM.<br> J<br> к<br> 8x + 4<br> 4x + 20<br> M<br> L
madam [21]

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

8x + 4 = 4x + 20

8x - 4x = 20 - 4

4x = 16 divide both sides by 4

x = 4 and JM = 8x + 4 replace x with 4

8×4 + 4 = 36

Brian, Kelsey, and Geoff each have a remote-controlled car. They simultaneously started their cars and drove them in a straight
jasenka [17]

Answer:

The correct option is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the Brian, Kelsey, and Geoff each have a remote-controlled car. They simultaneously started their cars and drove them in a straight line away from a motion sensor.

It means they are travelling at a constant rate.

Slope formula:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

From the given table it is clear that the of Brian's car from the sensor is 34 at 1 sec and 38 at 3 sec. The rate of change is

m=\frac{38-34}{3-1}=2

It means the Brian's car traveled at the rate of 2 cm per sec.

From the given table it is clear that the of Brian's car from the sensor is 27 at 1 sec and 31 at 3 sec. The rate of change is

m=\frac{31-27}{3-1}=2

It means the Kelsey's car traveled at the rate of 2 cm per sec.

From the given table it is clear that the of Brian's car from the sensor is 27 at 1 sec and 33 at 3 sec. The rate of change is

m=\frac{33-27}{3-1}=3

It means the Geoff's car traveled at the rate of 3 cm per sec.

Since Brian's and Geoff's car traveled at the same rate, therefore option 1 is correct.

Luz earns $400 for 40 hours of work. Use a ratio table to determine how much she earns for 6 hours of work.
LiRa [457]
To work out how much Luz earns, you simply have to follow 400/40=10, so she earns $10/hour. We can therefore establish that if she works for 6 hours, she'll earn $60.

295 + 39x = 350 - 33x<br><br> solve for x and show work
Katarina [22]

Answer:

x=\frac{55}{72}

Step-by-step explanation:

295+39x=350-33x

Subtract 295 from both sides:

39x=-33x+55

Add 33x to both sides:

72x=55

Divide both sides by 72:

x=\frac{55}{72}
