Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

c is the only one that even makes sense

C. Distribute 6 to eliminate the parentheses.

To solve an equation we follow BODMAS rule which stands for first solving which are inside brackets then we divide terms to each other if division is given.Then we multiply terms if multiplication is given.Next step we add terms if given.In last we do subtraction if it is in the given expression.If any of these operations are not given we just skip and do the next operation according to the BODMAS rule.

According to the given question

Charlotte wants to solve the equation 6(2x+1) – 3 = 4x – 5.

6( 2x + 1 ) - 3 = 4x - 5

12x + 6 - 3 = 4x - 5

12x + 3 = 4x - 5

12x - 4x = - 5 - 3

8x = - 8

 x = -8/8

 x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on his weekly salary and commission, we can calculate that Mr. Randall sold goods worth $1,800.

In the formula given, sales is represented as s. To find the total sales, you can solve the equation:

300 + 0.07s = 426

0.07s = 426 - 300

s = 126 / 0.07

= $1,800

In conclusion, Mr. Randall sold $1,800 worth of goods.

Answer:

the point where the line on the graph meets the y-axis

Answer:

What is an y-intercept ?

A y-intercept is in analytic geometry, using the common convention that the horizontal axis represents a variable x and the vertical axis represents a variable y, a y-intercept or vertical intercept is a point where the graph of a function or relation intersects the y-axis of the coordinate system. As such, these points satisfy x= 0.

The high temperature on Monday was -14 degrees.

On Tuesday the high temperature was 24 degrees.

The temperature difference between Monday and Tuesday.

= Temperature on Tuesday - Temperature on Monday

= 24 - (-14)

= 24 + 14

= 38

Thus,

The integer that represents the difference in high temperature from Monday to Tuesday is 38.

To find:

The correct multiplication that can be used to check this division problem.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]\dfrac{2}{5}\div \dfrac{4}{15}=\dfrac{3}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{\dfrac{2}{5}}{\dfrac{4}{15}}=\dfrac{3}{2}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by [tex]\dfrac{4}{15}[/tex].

[tex]\dfrac{\dfrac{2}{5}}{\dfrac{4}{15}}\times \dfrac{4}{15}=\dfrac{3}{2}\times \dfrac{4}{15}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{2}{5}=\dfrac{3}{2}\times \dfrac{4}{15}[/tex]

To find:

The y-intercept (in ordered pair).

Solution:

We have,

Mike can make 4 bows

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]1\ bow = 3\frac{1}{2}\ ft[/tex]

[tex]Ribbon = 14\ ft[/tex]

Required

Determine the number of bows he can make

To do this, we simply divide the length of the ribbon by length of 1 bow:

i.e.

[tex]Number = Ribbon/1\ bow[/tex]

[tex]Number = 14\ ft/3\frac{1}{2}\ ft[/tex]

[tex]Number = 14/3\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]Number = 14/\frac{7}{2}[/tex]

Convert to *

[tex]Number = 14 * \frac{2}{7}[/tex]

[tex]Number = \frac{28}{7}[/tex]

[tex]Number = 4[/tex]

Hence, Mike can make 4 bows

Answer:

et's start by defining the three consecutive integers.

.

If x represents the least of the three, then the next consecutive integer is x+1 and the

next consecutive integer is 1 more than that ... or x + 2

.

So the three consecutive integers are x, x+1, and x+2.

.

Twice the least integer is, as you correctly wrote, 2x.

.

12 more than the greatest integer is x+2 + 12 = x + 14

.

Since these two amounts must be equal, you can write:

.

2x = x + 14

.

Now you need to get rid of the x on the right side so that you end up with all the terms

containing x on one side of the equation and everything else on the other side. You can

get rid of the x on the right side by subtracting x from the right side. But if you subtract

something from the right side, you must also subtract it from the left side to keep the

equation in balance. So subtract x from both sides. When you do that, the x disappears

from the right side and the left side becomes 2x minus x which is just x.

.

So the equation is reduced to:

.

x = 14

.

If x is 14 then the next two consecutive integers are 15 and 16 ... x+1 and x+2. So the

three consecutive integers are 14, 15, and 16.

.

Check ... the least integer is 14. Twice the least integer is 28. Is 28 actually 12 more

than the greatest integer which is 16? Yes it is, so the problem checks.

.

You were on the right track, but you just needed to know the difference in the three integers

was that they were x, x+1, and x+2. Hope this helps to show you how you could work the

problem through to get the final answer.

Answer:

x = 111°

x° = 111°

(x-42)° = 69°

Step-by-step explanation:

Any polygon with *n* number of sides has an interior angle sum of (n-2) × 180°.

Therefore this right trapezoid must have an interior angle sum of 360° because

a trapezoid has 4 sides → n = 4 →

(n-2) × 180° = (4-2) × 180° = 2 × 180° = 360°

Because we are given a 90 degree angle with a set of parallel sides, the angle above that must also be a right angles well so these will total 180°.

The last two angles are given by the two expressions x°, and (x-42)°. Because we know the sum of these angles which are 360° we can create the following equation from these angles and solve!

180° + 2x - 42° = 360°

(Group the constants / numbers without a variable ; associative property of addition)

180° - 42° + 2x = 360°

(Find the total value of the constants)

138° + 2x = 360°

(subtract 138° from both sides to isolate 2x on the left side ; subtraction property of equality)

138° - 138° + 2x = 360° - 138°

(Work out the value of the constants again)

2x = 222°

(divide by 2 on both sides to cancel out the coefficient of 2 in 2x to get x by itself ; division property of equality)

2x / 2 = 222° / 2

(Simplify the two expressions)

x = 111°

_____________________

To find the measure of the x expressions, just substitute x = 111° into the expressions and simplify to find the measure!

So:

x = 111° → x° = 111°

x = 111° → (x-42)° → (111 - 42)° = (69)° →

(x-42)° = 69°

Answer:

slope of p= -7/12

slope of q= -3/6.8

slope of r= -16/6.4

slope of m= 6.2/15.5

slope of n= 6.8/17

Step-by-step explanation:

The slopes of the line are given as 2.5 for p and q and -2.5 for r, m and n respectively.

The slope of a straight line is the tangent of the angle formed by it with the positive x axis as the reference.

The negative slope indicates the rate of decrease while the positive shows the rate of increase.

The slope of the given lines can be obtained as follows,

(a) In order to find slope of line p,

Use the formula m = (x₂ - x₁)/(y₂ - y₁) and substitute the corresponding values to get,

m = (-3 - 8)/(0.4 - (-4))

⇒ m = -2.5

(b)  In order to find slope of line q,

Use the formula m = (x₂ - x₁)/(y₂ - y₁) and substitute the corresponding values to get,

m = (13 - 0)/(6.8 - 12)

⇒ m = -2.5

(c)  In order to find slope of line r,

Use the formula m = (x₂ - x₁)/(y₂ - y₁) and substitute the corresponding values to get,

m = (13 - (-3))/(6.8 - 0.4)

⇒ m = 2.5

(d) In order to find slope of line m,

Use the formula m = (x₂ - x₁)/(y₂ - y₁) and substitute the corresponding values to get,

m = (-15.5 - 0)/(0 - 6.2)

⇒ m = 2.5

(e)  In order to find slope of line n,

Use the formula m = (x₂ - x₁)/(y₂ - y₁) and substitute the corresponding values to get,

m = (-5 - 12)/(- 6.8 - 0)

⇒ m = 2.5

Hence, the slopes of first two lines are 2.5 and of the remaining three are 2.5.

The coordinates of C are (8,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the segment from A(-4,-7) to B(12,5) and it's required to find a point C(x,y) that is located at 3/4 of the distance from A to B.

This means that:

[tex]d_{AC}=3/4\cdot d_{AB}[/tex]

where dAC is the distance from A to C and dAB is the distance from A to B.

The same proportion of the distances is satisfied by the coordinates of the point C, that is:
