Add like terms and then simplify
Answer:
The correct anser is option
B. 2x + 2 = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of hot dogs eaten by the runner up be represented by x
If Dave ate 2 more than twice x, this means that the number eaten by him = 2x + 2
Since the total number of hot dogs eaten by Dave is 18
Therefore, the equation will be
2x + 2 = 18
So the number of hot dogs eaten by the runner-up is determined by solving for x
2x= 18-2
2× = 16
x = 16/2
x = 8
The runner up are 8
While Dave are
2×8 + 2 = 18.
In the equation y=mx+b, the variable m represents the slope of the line. Therefore, the equation -5x+2y=10 can be rearranged into 2y=5x+10. Isolate the y to get y=2.5x+5. The slope of the line is 2.5
1. x intercept - (2,0)
y intercept - (0,4)
2. x intercept - (3,0)
y intercept - (0,-5)
