An equation is shown below:

−2(4x − 1) − 7 = 5

Which statement shows a correct next step in solving the equation?

Answers

Answer 1
-2(4x-1)=5+7
(4x-1)=12/-2
4x=-6+1
x=-5/4
Answer 2

Answer:

Distribute -2 into (4x-1) to get rid of the parenthesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you should to in solving for 'x'  is to get rid of the parentheses by distributing.

[tex]-2(4x-1)-7=5\\\\-8x-2-7=5[/tex]

Of course, you would also combine like terms to completely simplify the equation to solve for x.

[tex]-8x-9=5[/tex]

Hope this helps.

14. 9(y - 4) - 7y = 5(3y - 2
step by step please​

Answers

Answer:

y=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

9(y−4)−7y=5(3y−2)

(9)(y)+(9)(−4)+−7y=(5)(3y)+(5)(−2)

9y+−36+−7y=15y+−10

(9y+−7y)+(−36)=15y−10

2y+−36=15y−10

2y−36=15y−10

Step 2:

2y−36−15y=15y−10−15y

−13y−36=−10

Step 3:

−13y−36+36=−10+36

−13y=26

y=-2

Answer:

y=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

9(y + -4) + -7y = 5(3y + -2)

Reorder the terms:

9(-4 + y) + -7y = 5(3y + -2)

(-4 * 9 + y * 9) + -7y = 5(3y + -2)

(-36 + 9y) + -7y = 5(3y + -2)

Combine like terms: 9y + -7y = 2y

-36 + 2y = 5(3y + -2)

Reorder the terms:

-36 + 2y = 5(-2 + 3y)

-36 + 2y = (-2 * 5 + 3y * 5)

-36 + 2y = (-10 + 15y)

Solving

-36 + 2y = -10 + 15y

Solving for variable 'y'.

Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-15y' to each side of the equation.

-36 + 2y + -15y = -10 + 15y + -15y

Combine like terms: 2y + -15y = -13y

-36 + -13y = -10 + 15y + -15y

Combine like terms: 15y + -15y = 0

-36 + -13y = -10 + 0

-36 + -13y = -10

Add '36' to each side of the equation.

-36 + 36 + -13y = -10 + 36

Combine like terms: -36 + 36 = 0

0 + -13y = -10 + 36

-13y = -10 + 36

Combine like terms: -10 + 36 = 26

-13y = 26

Divide each side by '-13'.

y = -2

Simplifying

y = -2

Point V lies between points U and W on line UW. The distance between U and V is 2x-4, and the distance between V and W is 4x+10. If UW = 9x – 9, what is UW in units?

Answers

Answer:

36UNITS

Step-by-step explanation:

If point V lies between U and W, then UV+VW = UW

given parameters

UV = 2x-4

VW = 4x+10

UW = 9x-9

Substituting the given functions in the formula first, we will have;

2x-4+4x+10 = 9x-9

6x+6 = 9x-9

Collect like terms

6x-9x = -9-6

-3x = -15

x = -15/-3

x = 5

Substitute x = 5 into UW.

Since UW = 9x-9

UW = 9(5)-9

UW = 45-9

UW = 36

A chef turned on a faucet and filled a 2-gallon pot in 5 6 of a minute. What is the rate of water flow? Simplify your answer and write it as a proper fraction, mixed number, or whole number.

Answers

Answer: Rate of water flow is 12/5 gallon per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Volume of faucet pot = 2 gallon

Time taken to fill the faucet pot = 5/6 of a minute = (5/6) minute.

Rate of water flow:

Volume of faucet pot / time taken

= 2 gallon ÷ (5/6) minute

= 2 gallon × (6/5) minutes

= (12 /5) gallon / minute

= 2 2/5 gallon / minute

Hence rate of water flow is 12/5 gallon per minute.

Tom worked 48 hours last week and gets time-and-a-half pay for overtime. His regular pay is $32 per hour. a) How much does he make for an hour of overtime?

Answers

Answer:

$48

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we know that;

His regular pay is $32 per hour.

Tom worked 48 hours last week and gets time-and-a-half pay for overtime.

Time and a half pay = 1.5

Hence, if Tom works for an hour of overtime, his pay for his overtime is calculated as:

= 1.5 × $32 × 1

= $48

Therefore, he was paid $48 for one hour of overtime.
