Answer: -2.75*x - 4.7
Step-by-step explanation:
In the equation we have only one variable, this means that the minimum possible number of terms will be two, one term with x, and one term without x.
We can start with the equation:
(-0.25x - 3) - (2.5x + 1.7)
Now, let's rewrite this as:
-0.25x - 3 - 2.5x - 1.7
(-0.25*x - 2.5*x) + (-3 - 1.7)
Solving the parentheses we get:
-2.75*x - 4.7
That is the equivalent expression that has the fewest possible terms
X could be the positive integers 2, 3, 4, or 5
Answer:2.19 monthd
Step-by-step explanation:
Cris borrowed money from her brother 6 months ago. She now owes him 56.50
Let x= original money borrowed from her brother 6 months ago
She has not borrowed and she is paying 15.75 on her debt each month for the last 6 months. This means in the past 6 months,she has paid 15.75×6= 94.5
She now owes him 56.50. This means original money,x-56.50 =94.5
x = 94.5+56.50=151
If she now increases her monthly payment to 25.75, let the number of months be y, she will pay 25.75y in y months
25.75y =56.50
y =2.19 months
Z
Z=kX
When x=6, z=18,
Finding value of z,
18=k*6
k=3
Z=3X
when x=10,
Z=3*10
Z=30
Part B;
Z
z=
Where x is a constant of proportionality,
when x=3, z=2
2=
a=3*2
a=6
When x is 13,
Z=
