<h3>hello!</h3>

Let's solve this equation.

Step 1

Move the numbers to the right:-

5x=2x-3-3

Step 2

Move the x's to the left

5x-2x=-3-3

Notice I use the opposite operation :)

Step 3

Combine like terms

3x=-6x

Step 4

Divide both sides by 3

x=-2

That's the value of x that makes the equation true.

Hope everything is clear; if you need any clarification/explanation, kindly let me know, and I'll comment and/or edit my answer :)

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

$5x+3 = 2x -3 \\\\\implies 5x -2x = -3 -3\\\\\implies 3x = -6\\\\\implies x = -\dfrac 63 =-2$

First, we need her speed as it will serve as the slope of the equation.
Distance = 2 km
time = 18 min
Speed = 1/9 km/min
k = (1/9)t
Where k is the distance in km and t is the time in minutes.

Answer:

<u>A. Nicholas will have to pay less using plan A</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's compare how much Nicholas will pay on internet service in Plan A and plan B, after using it 16 hours and 40 minutes.

Plan A

Up to 10 hours = US$ 6

Every subsequent 1/2 hour: $1

10 hours + 14 (1/2 hour)

<u>Nicholas will pay 6 + 14 * 1 = US$ 20</u>

Plan B

Up to 12 hours = US$ 4

Every subsequent 1/2 hour: $2

12 hours + 10 (1/2 hour)

<u>Nicholas will pay 4 + 2 * 10 = 24</u>

The simplification form of the expression is 3x²/2 + 2x or three-halves x squared + 2 x option second is correct.

<h3>What is the area of the rectangle?</h3>

It is defined as the area occupied by the rectangle in two-dimensional planner geometry.

The area of a rectangle can be calculated using the following formula:

Rectangle area = length x width

We have:

A community garden with raised beds is being redesigned. The area of the new rectangular beds can be expressed as one-half x (3 x + 4).

The expression:

$\rm = \dfrac{1}{2}(3x+4)$

By using the distributive property:

$\rm = \dfrac{1}{2}\times3x^2+\dfrac{1}{2}\times4x$

$\rm = \dfrac{3}{2}x^2+2x$

Thus, the simplification form of the expression is 3x²/2 + 2x or three-halves x squared + 2 x option second is correct.
