Answer: 6+4x=26, 4x=20

Step-by-step explanation: 6+4x=20 is the initial equation but completely multiplied by two, so you can know without solving that it is equivalent.

If you solve the equation, 2x+3=13 (subtract 3 from both sides)

2x=10 (divide both sides by 2)

x equals 5.

if you plug in 5 as x to 4x=20, you get 20=20, which is a true statement, so this choice is also correct. You could also solve to prove x equals 5 in this equation as well. Divide 20 by 4 and you get x=5.

Andrea bought 1 2/5 pounds of avocados at $4.20 per pound and 2 1/

guapka [62]

Answer:

$14.43¢

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given; $1\frac{2}{5}$ pounds, 1 pound = $4.20 and $2\frac{1}{4}$ pounds,1 pound = $3.80 that Andrea bought.

Now we need to find her total cost. To do that, we must first find the cost of the avocados. To do so, let us set up a graph. But before that is done, convert $1\frac{2}{5}$ to a decimal. It is 1.4. Now we can set up a graph.

Avocados

$\frac{4.2}{1}=\frac{x}{1.4}$

Switch sides

$\frac{x}{1.4}=\frac{4.2}{1}$

Apply rule: $\frac{a}{1}=a$

$\frac{x}{1.4}=4.2$

Multiply both sides by 1.4

$\frac{1.4x}{1.4}=4.2\cdot \:1.4$

Simplify

$x=5.88$

So, her cost for avocados is $5.88¢

Now we must first find the cost of the avocados. To do so, let us set up a graph. But before that is done, convert $2\frac{1}{4}$ to a decimal. It is 2.25. Now we can set up a graph.

Asparagus

$\frac{3.8}{1}=\frac{x}{2.25}$

Switch sides

$\frac{x}{2.25}=\frac{3.8}{1}$

Apply rule : $\frac{a}{1}=a$

$\frac{x}{2.25}=3.8$

Multiply both sides by 2.25

$\frac{2.25x}{2.25}=3.8\cdot \:2.25$

Simplify

$x=8.55$

So, her cost for asparagus is $8.55¢

Total cost

Now that we have found out how much both of the fruits Andrea bought costs, we need to sum it up (meaning add it) to find the total cost:

$5.88¢ + 8.55¢ =

5.88 + 8.55 = 14.43

Therefore, Andrea's total cost of the fruits is $14.43¢

Answer:

$a^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

√a^4 is the same as:

√a × √a × √a × √a

group them as 2 pairs of

(√a × √a) × (√a × √a)

which makes

a × a

which is the same as $a^{2}$

Find the sum of (x + 5) and (2x + 3)

Genrish500 [490]

What you can do is subtract 1x from each side
Then you subtract 3 from each side
Then it tells you x=2
Always put what you think x is back into the problem and see if it works out

Example on how you do it:
(x+5)=(2x+3)
5=(x+3)
2=x

10x-2y=18 8x=y solve by substitution

lana [24]

Answer:

x = -1 and y = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of equations

y + 8x = 10... 1

2y - 4x = 40 ... 2

From 1; y = 10-8x

Substitute into 2;

2(10-8x) - 4x = 40

20 - 16x - 4x = 40

20 - 20x = 40

-20x = 40 - 20

-20x = 20

x = -1

Recall that y = 10-8x

y = 10 - 8(-1)

y = 10 + 8

y = 18

therefore your answer is x = -1 and y = 18
