Answer:
a) 5x=8 use a calculator and use distributive property
b) 22=3x+5 -18
22=3x-13
9=3x
x=3
distributive property
c)-48= -8x-20+5x-1
-48= -3x-21
-27= -3x
x=7
distributive property
Step-by-step explanation:
B) 12.75
Just add them all together
10+15+14+8+18+11+12+12+10+10+17+16=153
The devide the anser by the ammount of numbers you added together
153÷12=12.75
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let age of each twin be x
let age of sister be s
So we can write:
x + 4 = s
The product of the 3 siblings ages is 3482 more than sum. We can write:

This can be simplified as:

We replace s with "x + 4" and solve:

<u>Note:</u> To solve this cubic, we used technology
Thus, we can say the twins are 14 years old
Answer:
(6x-5y)(20y-23x)
Step-by-step explanation:
x(6x - 5y) - 4(6x - 5y)^2
= (6x-5y)(x-4(6x-5y))
= (6x-5y)(x-24x+20y)
= (6x-5y)(20y-23x)
