Answer:
X-19
Step-by-step explanation:
First you need to distribute the three into the numbers in the parenthesis,
(3 * x) + (3 * -5) - (2x + 4)
That then turns into,
3x - 15 - (2x + 4)
but we aren't done distributing yet, because the second set of parenthesis has a negative sign in front of it we also have to distribute that. (this is because the negative sign is really just -1)
3x - 15 + (-1 * 2x) + (-1 * 4)
that turns into,
3x - 15 - 2x -4
from here all we have to do is add like terms,
(3x - 2x) + (-15 + -4)
and that leaves us with: 1x -19 or x-19
Hope that helped :))

a. Today is day 1. 30 days from today is day 31.
She works on day 31, so she does work 30 days from today.
b. 45 days from today is day 46. She is off on day 46, so she will be off 45 days from today.
There are two cases:
1.
2.
So the minimum temperature is -6, and the maximum is 18.
Answer: The total amount the water change was -28 gallons by the end of the week <u>OR</u> The total amount the water changed decreased 28 gallons by the end of the week. Depending on how you want to word it.
Hope this helps!
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Create you equation:</u>
x = the total amount the water changed
d = the amount of days
x = -4d
<u />
<u>Insert the known information into the equation and solve:</u>
x = -4d
x = -4(7)
x = -28
