Answer:

x = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x + 1) = - 2(x - 1) - 4 ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

3x + 3 = - 2x + 2 - 4

3x + 3 = - 2x - 2 ( add 2x to both sides )

5x + 3 = - 2 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

5x = - 5 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = - 1

ella [17]

Answer:

let the ratio be in x 

a/q. 3x + 2x = 300000

 5x = 300000

x = 300000/5

x= 60000

Leona = 60000*3 = 180000

Janet = 60000*2 = 120000

The bottle is completely full at 11:40 a.m. Which statements help explain this result? Check all that apply. The bottle was 1/2

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that bottle was half full at 11.35 a.m. and full at 11.40 a.m.

This implies it takes 5 minutes for the liquid to double.

This is confirmed by the statement that before 5 minutes i.e. at 11.30 the bottle was only 1/4 full.

Hence true statements would be:

1) The bottle was 1/2 full at 11:35 a.m. and doubled again after 5 minutes.

2) The bottle was 1/4 full at 11:30 a.m. and doubled twice after 10 minutes. The bottle was 1/2 full at 11:35 a.m.

3) Exponential growth involves a constant multiplicative rate of change.

(The rate cannot be additional as we get 2 times every 5 minutes)
