Answer:
no solution
Step-by-step explanation:
5x - 8(x + 5) = 6 - 3x
Remember to follow PEMDAS. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.
First, distribute -8 to all terms within the parenthesis
-8(x + 5) = (-8)(x) + (-8)(5) = -8x - 40
5x - 8x - 40 = 6 - 3x
Isolate the variable (x). Add 3x & 40 to both sides
5x - 8x (+3x) - 40 (+40) = 6 (+40) - 3x (+3x)
5x - 8x + 3x = 6 + 40
Simplify. Combine like terms
(5x - 8x + 3x) = (6 + 40)
0 = 46 ; False 0 ≠ 46 ∴ no solution is your answer

Answer:
The functions that represent this situation are A and C.
Step-by-step explanation:
A geometric sequence goes from one term to the next by always multiplying or dividing by the same value.
In geometric sequences, the ratio between consecutive terms is always the same. We call that ratio the common ratio.
This is the explicit formula for the geometric sequence whose first term is k and common ratio is r
Answer:
10 nickels and 10 quarters
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Number of coins: 20
Vaiue of coins = $3.00
Required
Number of Nickels and Quarters;
<em>Let N =Nickels and Q =Quarters</em>
The total coins is represented as:
1 nickel is equivalent to $0.05 and 1 quarter is equivalent to $0.25; So
Make N the subject of formula in the first equation
Substitute this in the second equation
Collect like terms
Multiply both sides by 5
Recall that N = 20 - Q
Answer:
D) 0.42 + 0.17 x = 0.93
Step-by-step explanation:
0.93 - 0.42 = 0.51
0.51 / 0.17 = 3
3 ounces and the answer is D
Answer:
It increases x3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say the fraction to begin with was 100/100. Ignore the fact that it isn't fully reduced and it is an improper fraction.
10% of 100 is 10, so the numerator is now 90 (decrease=get smaller; 100-10=90).
70% of 100 is 70, so the denominator is now 30 (decrease=get smaller; 100-70=30).
Our fraction is now 90/30 which, when fully reduced, equals 3.00. Since 100/100 equals 1.00, it has increased by 2.00 (3x bigger).
