Answer:

distribute parenthesis

Step-by-step explanation:

6(2x + 1) = 4x - 5 ← distribute parenthesis on left side

12x + 6 = 4x - 5 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

8x + 6 = - 5 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

8x = - 11 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = - \frac{11}{8}

The temperature was -5 degrees at 5:00 am. After 2 hours, the temperature increased by 39 degrees. What was the temperature at 7
Nesterboy [21]

Answer: 34 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The starting temperature was -5 degrees at 5am, and after two hours, the temperature was 34 degrees at 7am. The temperature increased by 39 degrees, how did we get this answer?

You add -5 and 39

-5 + 39 = 34

A tip for adding negatives:

When you get a problem similar to -5 + 39, you can actually flip them around if you need an easier understanding. So it would be 39 - 5. Both equations still equal 34 as long as you keep the values of each number!

Denise needs to move some bags of gardening soil from her garage to her mother's garden. The topsoil weighs 30 pounds per bag, a
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer: 30t + 30m ≤ 330

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum amount of pounds the truck can carry is 330 pounds so whatever will be carried has to either be equal to or less than 330 pounds.

= ≤ 330

t represents the number of bags of top soil and m represents the number of bags of mulch.

Each bag of top soil is 30 pounds and each bag of mulch is 30 pounds as well.

= 30t + 30m

Put together;

30t + 30m ≤ 330
