Solve 1/3 (3x + 6) + 2x = 26

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ilya [14]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>

(1/3) (3x + 6) + 2x = 26

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

(1/3) · 3x + (1/3) · 6 + 2x = 26

x + 2 + 2x = 26

<u>Combine like terms</u>

(x + 2x) + 2 = 26

3x + 2 = 26

<u>Subtract 2 on both sides</u>

3x + 2 - 2 = 26 - 2

3x = 24

<u>Divide 3 on both sides</u>

3x / 3 = 24 / 3

\boxed{x=8}

Hope this helps!! :)

Lola gets two 20-minute breaks at work each day. She works 5 days a week. How much time does she spend on break each week?
Maslowich

Answer:

200 minutes / 3 hours & 20 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is quite simple.

First, since we know that Lola takes two 20 minute breaks at work each day, let's multiply 20 and 2.

20 × 2 = 40

This means she is on break for a total of 40 minutes each day.

Finally, let's take that 40 and multiply it by 5.

40 × 5 = 200

This means she spend 200 minutes (3 hours & 20 mins) on break each week.

Nina [5.8K]
25 - 7 = 18 | 18 - 3 = 15 The school received 15 kits in the box. The reason why is because there are 3 kits that they haven't received yet. Then there were 7 that they already had, so that means there are 10 kits that wont be included in the box.

Which of the following expressions is equal to 2x2 + 18 ?
ehidna [41]
<h3>Answer: Choice C. (2x - 6i)(x + 3i)</h3>

Work Shown:

2x^2 + 18

2(x^2 + 9)

2(x - 3i)(x + 3i) .... see note below

(2x - 6i)(x + 3i)

Note: I used the rule that a^2 + b^2 = (a - bi)(a + bi). I recommend FOILing out the right hand side to confirm the equation is true. You'll use the idea that i^2 = -1.
