five twice the sum of a number and 3 is the same as 3 multiplied by 1 less than twice the number. what is the number?

1 answer:

5 0

Answer: -4.5, but only if the phrase "five twice the sum . . ." means 5*2*(the sum of . . .). "five twice" is confusing, so please check the question.

Step-by-step explanation:

5*2*(X + 3) = 3*(2X - 1)

10X + 15 = 6X -3

4X = -18

X = -18/4

X = - 4.5

Answer:

The answer is A: 5x + 10y > 30. That is, the combination of boxes must be greater than 30 since the requirement is to have more than 30 lb of nails.

Step-by-step explanation:

The worker can buy a combination of boxes, as long as the total is greater than 30 lb. Multiply 5 lb by x and add that to 10 lb times y to get the total, which must exceed 30 lb.
