Answer:

The answer is 20 - 17 = 3 [Choice B.]

Step-by-step explanation:

Put x = 5 into the formula (3x + 5) - (2x + 7)

[3(5)+5] - [2(5)+7]

= [15 + 5] - [10 + 7]

=20 - 17

= 3

Answer:

The answer is B. 20 - 17 = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

( 3x + 5) - (2x + 7)...... x = 5

( 3(5) + 5) - ( 2(5) + 7)

( 15 + 5) - (10 + 17)

20 - 17 = 3

Thank you :)

21 cars, 32 motorcycles.
create a system of equations using x for cars and y for motorcycles.
$\left \{ {{x+y=53} \atop {4x+2y=148}} \right.$
multiply the top equation by 2 to prepare for elimination method
$\left \{ {{2x+2y=106} \atop {4x+2y=148}} \right.$
subtract terms
$\left \{ {{2x+2y=106} \atop {-4x-2y=-148}} \right. = (-2x = -42)$
divide both sides by negative 2 to solve for x
x =21
plug in x into original equation to solve for y.
21 + y = 53
subtract both sides by 21
y=32

Find the equation of the line using the point-slope formula. Write all the final equations

vivado [14]

Answer:

$y=\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{5}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are going to find the slope by lining up the points vertically and subtract, then put 2nd difference over first.

Also you could just use $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$ . It is the same thing.

( 5 , 5)

-( 1 , 3)

--------------

4 2

So the slope is 2/4 or 1/2 after reducing.

The point-slope form a line is

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$ with a point on the line $(x_1,y_1)=(1,3)$ given and with slope $m=\frac{1}{2}$ given.

$y-3=\frac{1}{2}(x-1)$

We are going to solve this for y and simplify what we can because our goal is y=mx+b; this is slope-intercept form. It is called that because it tells us the slope,m, and the y-intercept,b.

Distribute:

$y-3=\frac{1}{2}x-\frac{1}{2}$

Add 3 on both sides:

$y=\frac{1}{2}x-\frac{1}{2}+3$

Simplify:

$y=\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{5}{2}$
