Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A) 2x − 2.5 + 3x − 3 = 5x - 5.5

B)5(x-1.1) = 5x - 5*1.1= 5x - 5.5

D)5x - 5.5

But C) is not equivalent

5(x-5.5) = 5x - 5*5.5 = 5x - 27.5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A: You can combine like terms. 2x + 3x = 5x. 2.5 + 3 = 5.5 A = 5x - 5.5

B: You can use distributive property. 5x - 5.5

C: If you use the distributive property you get 5x + 27.

D: D is 5x - 5.5

So the only one that does not equal 5x - 5.5 is C.

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

it‘s about

32.08 ft (if its not an answer choice try 32 or anywhere near that number)

Step-by-step explanation:

SO this is a simple example of triangles

We would need to find the heigh of the flagpole which is the leg of the triangle

The other side (14ft) is the 2nd leg of the triangle

And we know the hypotenuse is 35 ft

So we put that in Pythagorean Theroux and solve for the first missing leg

a^2+14^2=35^2

a^2+196=1225

a^2=1029

√1029 is about 32.08

So its about 32.08

My friend sets out walking at a speed of $3$ miles per hour. I set out behind her $5$ minutes later at $4$ miles per hour. When

Answer: The answer is 0.25 miles.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that my friend started walking at a speed of 3 miles per hour and I started 5 minutes after him at a speed of 4 miles per hour. We need to find the number of miles my friend travelled when I started walking.

Since I started 5 minutes after than my friend, so we are to find the distance travelled by my friend in 5 minutes.

In 1 hour, i.e., 60 minutes, distance travelled by my friend = 3 miles.

In 1 minute, distance travelled by my friend is

$\dfrac{3}{60}=\dfrac{1}{20}~\textup{miles}.$

Therefore, distance travelled by my friend in 5 minutes will be

$\dfrac{1}{20}\times 5=\dfrac{1}{4}=0.25~\textup{miles}.$

Thus, the answer is 0.25 miles.

Simple problem:

When simplifying 3(x-6) they subtracted 3 instead of multiplied by 3.
3(x-6) should be 3x-18.
Now when you simplify:
3x-18+4x+12-6x
Which is x -6 =0
Or x =6
