B) 13 - 4x
C) 8 - 4x
D) 28 - 4x

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Well the correct answer is −4x+28... But I don't

see that as one of your options. :/

Simplify:

18−2(x+x−5)

Distribute:

=18+(−2)(x)+(−2)(x)+(−2)(−5)

=18+−2x+−2x+10

Combine Like Terms:

=18+−2x+−2x+10

=(−2x+−2x)+(18+10)

=−4x+28

Answer:

−4x+28

Answer 2

Answer:

[tex] \boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{28 - 4x}}}}}[/tex]

Option D is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

18 - 2 [ x + ( x - 5 ) ]

Remove the unnecessary Parentheses

⇒18 - 2 [ x + x - 5 ]

Collect like terms

⇒18 - 2 [ 2x - 5 ]

Distribute 2 through the parentheses

⇒18 - 4x + 10

Add the numbers

28 - 4x

|10-11| = simplify the expression

Answers

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's ignore the absolute value signs for a moment.

We have the expression [tex]10-11[/tex]. We know that if we subtract 10 from 10 we get 0, so if we subtract 11 from 10 we must get -1.

However, there is an absolute value sign. This means that whatever number is inside it has to be converted to a positive number.

-1 as a positive number is +1, or just 1.

Answers

Answer:

I HOPE IT WILL WORK

Step-by-step explanation:

let age of Maggie =x years

as given that Maggie brother is 3 year less than twice of her age

hence

brother = (2x-3) years

also given that sum of ages =24

hence

x+(2x-3)=24

3 x-3=24

3 x=27

Answer: Angle Addition Postulate

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the angle addition postulate, the measure of an angle formed by two angles side by side is the sum of the measures of the two angles. It is used to evaluate the measure of an angle formed by two or more angles .

In the given picture, we have ∠MRO and ∠MRS on line SRO.

So, ∠SRO = ∠MRO +∠MRS  [By angle addition postulate]

So the postulate that justify the statement " ∠SRO = ∠MRO +∠MRS" is Angle Addition Postulate.

PLEASE HELP ASAP Given: −3(a–b) > 0, which is the greater: a or b? Give numerical examples. Many thanks!

Answers

Answer:

b

Step-by-step explanation:

If a negative number times another number is positive, that means that the other number is also negative because multiplying two negative numbers gives you a positive number. Therefore, a - b must be negative. In order for the difference of two numbers to be negative, the number being subtracted must be bigger than the number it's being subtracted from. For example, in 2 - 7, 7 > 2 but 2 - 7 is negative, the same goes for 3 - 8, 4 - 10, etc. Therefore, b must be greater.

They can pick 1.29 liters of berries in 1 minute working together.

--------------------------------------------

The together rate is the sum of each separate rate. In this question:

We want to find the together rate.Jack's rate is [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex]Jill's rate is [tex]\frac{4}{10}[/tex]

--------------------------------------------

Together, they can pick x liters, and the rate is: [tex]\frac{1}{x}[/tex]

Then

[tex]\frac{1}{x} = \frac{3}{8} + \frac{4}{10}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{x} = \frac{15 + 16}{40}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{x} = \frac{31}{40}[/tex]

Which point would be a solution to the system of linear inequalities shown below? {see image for inequalities}

(-10, -2)
(−5,2)
(10,7)
(10,−2)

Answers

Answer:

(10, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequalities are:

y < x - 7               (1)

y < (1/5)x - 2        (2)

To solve this problem, we have to solve both equations simultaneously and then find the value of x and y that makes the inequality true.

To solve the inequality, subtract inequality (2) from inequality (1) which gives:

0 < (4/5) x - 5

-(4/5)x < -5

Dividing both sides of the equation by -4/5 gives:

-(4/5)x / (-4/5) < -5/ (-4/5)

x > 6.25

Put x > 6.2 in inequality 1

y < 6.25 - 7

y < -0.75

The solution of the inequality is x > 6.25 and y < -0.75

From the list of option, the correct answer is (10, -2) since 10 > 6.25 and -2 < -0.75

A bus travels from Station A to Station B, and a truck travels from Station B to Station A on the same road. The speed of the bus is 54 km/h, and the speed of the truck is 48 km/h. After they pass each other, they continue drive to the destinations. Once they reach the destination, they turn around to continue travel along the same road. When they meet again, the bus travels 216 km more than the truck. What is the distance between the two stations in kilometers?

Answers

Answer:

The distance between the two train stations is 1728 km

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed of the bus = 54 km/h

The speed of the truck = 48 km/h

When the bus and truck meet again, the distance covered by the bus = 216 km more than he distance traveled by the truck

Let the distance between the two train stations = x

Let the location where they first meet be y from station A we have;

The location where they meet again = y - 216 km

Therefore, we have;

Location where they

The time for the truck and the bus to meet again = t

Therefore, 54 × t - 48 × t = 216 km

6·t = 216 km

t = 36 hours

Therefore, the time for the bus to travel x + 216 km = 36 hours

54 × 36 = 1944 = x + 216

x = 1944 - 216 = 1728 km

The distance between the two train stations = 1728 km.

You need to prepare 30mL solution of a 1:8 syrup solution. You have on hand 50% syrup solution and a 1:20 soda solution. How many mL of each solution do you need to create the final solution?

Answers

Answer:

5 ml of 50% syrup solution will be used to create the final solution

Step by step Explanation:

Let the amount of 50% solution that was used = b

Which means ( 30 - b ) is the amount of 1/200 solution used then we can derive an equation as follows,

set up will then be,

0.5b +0.05(30 -b) = 1/8 (30)

We can simplifiy this as

0.5b+ 1.5 -0.05b = 3.75

Then make b the subject of the formula we have

0.45b = 2.25

b= 2.25/0.45

b = 5 ml

Therefore, 5ml of 50% syrup solution will be used to create the final solution

(This is part 2 to question 1) A. −16t+9 B. −16t2+4t3 C. 9t2+25t D. −16t2+25t+1

Answers

Answer:

a or b

Step-by-step explanation:

it just looks like b or a

H(t) = -4.9t^2 + 25t + 2

Height is a function of time

plug in 0, 1,2,3,4, and 5 to find the height at 0, 1,2,3,4, and 5 seconds.

at t = 0

H(0) = -4.9(0)^2+25(0) + 2 = 2 meters

Repeat for T=1,2,3,4 and 5

Notice the ball peaks around t = 3 seconds and starts to descend.  

H(1) = (-4.9)(1^2) + 25(1) + 2 = 22.1 meters

H(2) = (-4.9)(2^2)+25(2)+2=32.4 meters

H(3) = 32.9 meters

H(4) = 23.6 meters

H(5) = 4.5 meters
