Complete question:

<em>Write the verbal statement as an equation using x as a variable. Then solve. 2 more than 3 times a number is 17. </em>

<em />

The required expression is 3x + 2 = 17 and the value of x is 5

Let the unknown number be x

  • 3 times a number is expressed as 3x
  • 2 more than3 times the number is 3x + 2

If the result is equivalent to 17, the required expression will be 3x + 2 = 17

Solve the resulting expression:

3x + 2 = 17

3x = 17 - 2

3x = 15

x = 15/3

x = 5

Hence the required expression is 3x + 2 = 17 and the value of x is 5

The distance, d, in kilometres, travelled by a plane after t hours can be represented by d(t)=-4t³=40t²+500t, where t is greater
Ede4ka [16]
D(t) = -4t^3 + 40t^2 + 500t = 4088
4t^3 - 40t^2 - 500t + 4088 = 0
t = 7

Therefore, the plane has flown 4088 km 7 hours after it took off.

Need the answer on this ​
denpristay [2]
None of the answers are correct because it’s definitely not “Given” because x=20 is like an answer. It’s also not “Distributive Property”, “subtraction Property”, and or “Additional Property” b/c there’s nothing that can be distributed, subtract or add. It’s just an answer.

Solve for x: 4(x + 2) = 3(x − 2)<br><br>A) −2<br>B)−4<br>C) −10<br>D) −14
BARSIC [14]

4(x+2)=3(x-2)

Multiply the first bracket by 4

Multiply the second bracket by 3

4x+8=3x-6

Move 3x to the left hand side, whenever moving a number with a letter the sign changes ( positive 3x to negative 3x)

4x-3x+8=3x-3x-6

x+8=-6

Move positive 8 to the right hand side

x+8-8=-6-8

x=-14

Check answer by using substitution method

Use x=-14 into both of the equations

4(-14+2)=3(-14-2)

-56+8=-42-6

-48=-48

Answer is -14- D)
