Hey there!

8(3x - 6) = 6(4x + 8)

8(3x) + 8(-6) = 6(4x) + 6(8)

24x - 48 = 24x + 48

SUBTRACT 24x to BOTH SIDES

24x - 48 - 24x = 24x + 48 - 24

SIMPLIFY IT!

NEW EQUATION: -48 = 48

ADD 48 to BOTH SIDES

-48 + 48 = 48 + 48

NEW EQUATION: 0 = 96

Thus this makes your equation has

NO SOLUTION.

Therefore, your answer is:

Option A. Because this is a false

statement, the equation has no solution.

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

Write the 2 digit number that matches the clue
Wittaler [7]
You can figure this out by setting up an equation and make

x= tens digit
y= ones digit

y + 8 =x (tens digit 8 more than ones)

also we know that 

y>0
x>0

since the 10s digit and 1s digit cannot be more than one number, we can say

0 < y > 10
0 < x > 10

since x has to be greater than 0 but less than 10, there is only one number that would fit into the equation for y

2 + 8 = 10
(y cannot equal 2 because than x is equal to 10 and it must be less than)

1 + 8 = 9 
( y can be 1 since x is less than 10)

so it would be 
y= 1
x= 9

the number would be 91

hope this helped!

An employer uses the linear regression equation y = 0.18 x + 320.22 to predict the weekly salary, y, of an employee who sells x
Nata [24]

Answer:

Option C is correct.

Alex earned about $60 more than Joaquin did.

Step-by-step explanation:

The linear regression equation

y = 0.18 x + 320.22

is used to predict the weekly salary, y, of an employee who sells x dollars worth of merchandise.

Joaquin sold $1500 worth of goods. Meaning that x for that week for Joaquin is 1500.

Joaquin' s salary for that week is then given as

y = 0.18x + 320.22

y = 0.18(1500) + 320.22 = 590.22

Hence, Joaquin's salary for that week = $590.22

Alex earns $650 that week. Meaning that y for Alex in that week = 650

y = 0.18x + 320.22

650 = 0.18x + 320.22

0.18x = 650 - 320.22 = 329.78

x = (329.78/0.18) = 1832.1

Hence, Alex sold goods worth $1832.1 that week.

Joaquin sold goods worth $1500

Joaquin earned $590.22

Alex sold goods worth $1832.1

Alex earned $650

From this calculation, it is evident that 'Alex earned about $60 more than Joaquin did' is the correct option as $650 is about $60 more than $590.22

Hope this Helps!!!
