Answer:
The correct answer is:
(7s-2)+3+(s+3) = 52, or 8s+4 = 52.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since s is the son's age, "two less than seven times" the son's age would be represented by 7s-2. To represent this in 3 years, we would add 3: (7s-2)+3. In 3 years, the son's age, s, would be represented by s+3. We are told that the sum of these ages will be 52; this gives us (7s-2)+3+(s+3) = 52.
To simplify this, combine like terms. 7s+s = 8s; -2+3+3 = 4. This gives us 8s+4=52.
Answer:
The first one
Step-by-step explanation:
I believe it is the first option, as you can see that, on the right hand side, 4a was multiplied to the first term to make a common denominator. I'm sorry if it is wrong, and I hope this helped.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Since we don't know the y-value of the vertex, let's do this an easy way: plugging in.
Let's use the y intercept since that would be the easiest. Since x=0, the terms with x cancel, and you will get a leading result of -5
A) results in 2, so eliminate it
B) results in -2, so eliminate it
C) results in 5, so eliminate it
D) results in -5, so keep it
Since D was the only one that worked, that is our correct answer.
Answer:
# yellow = 20
# blue = 23
# red = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
let 'r' = # red marbles
let '4r' = # yellow marbles
let '3+4r' = # blue marbles
r + 4r + 3 + 4r = 48
9r + 3 = 48
9r = 45
r = 5
red = 5
yellow = 4(5) = 20
blue = 3+4(5) = 23
