Answer:
Kay sold 67; Allen sold 50
Step-by-step explanation:
Let "a" represent the number of phones that Allen sold.
a + (a+17) = 117 . . . equation used to find the answer
2a = 100 . . . . . . . . subtract 17, collect terms
a = 50 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2; the number Allen sold
a+17 = 67 . . . . . . . . Kay sold 17 more than Allen
No, -8 - 2(3 + 2n) + 7n is not equivalent to -30 - 13n
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us revise the operation of the negative and positive numbers
- (-) + (-) = (-)
- (-) × (-) = (+)
- (-) + (+) = the sign of greatest [(-) if the greatest is (-) or (+) if the greatest is (+)]
- (-) × (+) = (-)
- (-) - (+) = (-)
- (+) - (-) = (+)
∵ The expression is -8 - 2(3 + 2n) + 7n
- Simplify it
∵ 2(3 + 2n) = 2(3) + 2(2n) = 6 + 4n
∴ -8 - 2(3 + 2n) + 7n = -8 - (6 + 4n) + 7n
- Multiply the bracket by (-)
∴ -8 - (6 + 4n) + 7n = -8 - 6 - 4n + 7n
- Add the like terms
∴ -8 - (6 + 4n) + 7n = (-8 - 6) - 4n + 7n
∴ -8 - (6 + 4n) + 7n = -14 + 3n
∴ -8 - 2(3 + 2n) + 7n is equivalent to -14 + 3n
∵ -14 + 3n ≠ -30 - 13n
∴ -8 - 2(3 + 2n) + 7n is not equivalent to -30 - 13n
No, -8 - 2(3 + 2n) + 7n is not equivalent to -30 - 13n

Y=mx+b
First use the two point slope formula to find m
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
(2-0)/(-9-9)
2/-18
1/-9=m
Next use the point slope formula to find the answer
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-0=1/-9(x-9)
Now use Distributive Property
y-0=1/-9(x)+1/-9(-9)
y-0=1/-9x+1
Your answer would be
y=-1/9x+1
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the miles Kenyon ran on tuesday
Let y be the miles Kenyon ran on thursday
Given,
Mon + Tues + Wed + Thu = 8mi
also given,
Now we have x + y = 5.2 as equation 1 and -x + y = 0.4 as equation 2
Using equation 1,
Substitute this equation into equation 2.
Substitute y = 2.8 into equation 1.
Therefore Kenyon ran 2.4 miles on tuesday, and ran 2.8 miles on thursday.
