Answer:
No, Ivory is incorrect. The equation does have a solution, and the solution is x = -1.
Step-by-step explanation:
We try to solve the equation first.
2x + 2 = x + 1
We want all variables on the left side and all numbers on the right side.
Subtract x from both sides.
x + 2 = 1
Subtract 2 from both sides.
x = -1
Check: Plug in -1 for x on both sides and see if it makes a true statement.
2x + 2 = x + 1
2(-1) + 2 = -1 + 1
-2 + 2 = 0
0 = 0
0 = 0 is a true statement, so the solution x = -1 is the correct solution.

Answer:
AREA = 4,850
Step-by-step explanation:
split into two pieces
formula for triangles- base x height divided by 2
20 x 50 = 100 / 2 = 50
(130 - 50 = 80)
80 x 120 = 9,600 / 2 = 4,800
add...
4,800 + 50 = 4,850
The probability of multiple events happening is found by multiplying the probabilities of each event together.

So yes, 1/10 is the answer :)
Multiply it out
x^2 + 4x -8x -32
Combine like terms
x^2 -4x - 32
