Answer:

You can’t add 3x with 2x because to get term to the other side of the equal sign, you need to do the inverse (opposite) of the number. Since 3x is positive (basically with a + in the front) you SUBTRACT 3x for it to get to the other side. Which will get u -1x or just -x.

How can u tell when a rate is a unit rate
r-ruslan [8.4K]
<span>When rates are expressed as a quantity of 1, such as 2 feet per second or 5 miles per hour, they are called unit rates. If you have a multiple-unit rate such as 120 students for every 3 buses, and want to find the single-unit rate, write a ratio equal to the multiple-unit rate with 1 as the second term.</span>

Three consecutive even numbers are such that the sum of four times the smallest and twice the largest exceeds three times the se
Andru [333]

Answer:

the sum of the digits of the smallest number 668 = 6+6+8 = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

3 consecutive even number: x, x+2, x+4

4x + 2*(x+4) = 3*(x+2) + 2006

6x + 8 = 3x + 6 + 2006 = 3x + 2012

6x - 3x = 2012 - 8 = 2004

3x = 2004

x = 668

the sum of the digits of the smallest number = 6+6+8 = 20
