Answer is C.
For every option, sub in the value and find the answer that matches the equation!
Example for option A, F(x) = x + 4 and G(x) = x²
G(F(x)) = G(x + 4) ーー> sub in the value of F(x)
Let's take the subbed in value, (x + 4) as x, and this x will be the x for G(x).
∴ Since G(x) is x²
G(x + 4) = (x + 4)² ーー> remember (x + 4) is represented as x.
= x² + 16
∴ You know that the answer is not A, do this for all options and you'll find the answer, C!
therefore, the actual distance is 280 miles.
(sorry, idk the rule for it)
<h3>Equation : x + y = 170 and y = 2x - 40</h3><h3>The weight of Bill is 70 pounds and weight of mark is 100 pounds</h3>
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Let the weight of Bill be "x"
Let the weight of mark be "y"
Given that,
Mark and Bill have a combined weight of 170 pounds
Therefore,
x + y = 170 ------- eqn 1
Mark weighs 40 pounds less than twice Bill's weight
y = 2x - 40 ------- eqn 2
<em><u>Substitute eqn 2 in eqn 1</u></em>
x + 2x - 40 = 170
3x = 170 + 40
3x = 210
x = 70
<em><u>Substitute x = 70 in eqn 2</u></em>
y = 2(70) - 40
y = 140 - 40
y = 100
Thus weight of Bill is 70 pounds and weight of mark is 100 pounds
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Use the distributive property
5 ( x - 7 ) = 6 ( x + 2 ) → 5x - 35 = 6x + 12
2. Subtract 5x from both sides of the equation
5x - 5x -35 = 6x - 5x + 12 → -35 = x + 12
3. Subtract 12 from both sides
-35 - 12 = x + 12 - 12 → -47 = x
4. So, the answer is
