Which of the following statements describes a correct method for solving the equation below?
3x + 3 = 6x

A. Subtract 3x from both sides of the equation, and then divide both sides by 3.
B. Add 3x to both sides of the equation, and then divide both sides by 3.

C. Divide both sides of the equation by 6, and then subtract 3 from both sides.

D. Divide both sides of the equation by 6, and then add 3 to both sides.

Answers

Answer 1
Selection A works best.

_____
The other choices get you to a place where further work is necessary. They don't really contribute to solving the equation.
Answer 2
A) is the correct answer. 

3x + 3 = 6x
3x-3x + 3 = 6x - 3x
(3x -3x cancel each other out, leaving you with 3)
3 = 3x
3/3 = 3x/3
1 = x
x = 1

Now Verify- 
3x + 3 = 6x
3(1) + 3 = 6(1)
3 +3 = 6
6 = 6

Now can also use the guess and check way. But this is my way of solving it. I hope it helped.

0.25 r – 0.125 + 0.5 r = 0.5 + r

solve for r please show steps so i can actually understand.,

Answers

0.25r - 0.125 + 0.5r = 0.5 + r
Step 1: Move all similar terms (r) to the same side of the equation by
subtracting "r" from each side of the equation
0.25r - 0.125 + 0.5r - r = 0.5
Move terms without r to the other side of the equation, by adding +0.125 to each side of the equation
0.25r + 0.5r - r = 0.5 + 0.125
Add similar terms, note that r is equal to 1r
0.75r - 1r = 0.625
-0.25r = 0.625
Solve for r by dividing both sides of the equation by -0.25
r= 0.625/(-0.25)
r=-2.5

Raymond has 120 books on his bookshelf that he has not read. He plans on reading 3 books per week until there are only 24 books that he still needs to read. Which equation can be used to determine the number of weeks, w, it will take Raymond to have only 24 books left, and how many weeks will it take? 3w - 24 = 120; 48 weeks 24w = 120 - 3; 4 weeks 120 - 3w = 24; 32 weeks 24w - 3 = 120; 5 weeks

Answers

⓵ The equation would be : 120 - 3w = 24

⓶ To test it out, let’s start by isolating the “W” :

120 - 3w = 24
-24 -24



96 - 3w = 0
+3w +3w



96 = 3w
÷3 ÷3



32 = w

⓷ Now let’s see if everything works :

32 should be the number of weeks it will take Raymond to have only 24 books left!

If Raymond reads 3 books per week, how many did he read in 32 weeks?

32 × 3 = 96

If Raymond read 96 books in 32 weeks, how many books does he have left?

120 - 96 = 24

So the equation in #⓵ works!

I really hope this helped, if there’s anything just let me know! ☻

How can you tell when a quadratic equation has no real solutions?

B. when b in the quadratic formula is greater than the radicand
C. when the radicand equals zero
D. when the radicand is not a perfect square

I believe the answer is A? is that right?

Answers

The answer is that A. when the radicand is negative. Having a negative value inside a radicand sign will indicate that there are no solutions. Because we do not know the square root of a negative value.  The result of this is that we cannot evaluate the formula any further.

which of the following is the solution to the equation c + (4-3c) - 2 = 0

Answers

c+(4-3c)-2=0
we open the parenthesis
c+4-3c-2=0
-2c+2=0 subtract -2
-2c=-2 multiply by -1
2c=2
c=1 

Final answer:

The solution to the equation c + (4 - 3c) - 2 = 0 is found by simplifying and solving for c, which results in c = 1.

Explanation:

To solve the equation c + (4 - 3c) - 2 = 0, we need to simplify and solve for c.

First, we expand the equation:

c + 4 - 3c - 2 = 0

This simplifies to:

-2c + 2 = 0

Next, we isolate c on one side by adding 2c to both sides of the equation:

2 = 2c

Finally, we divide both sides by 2 to solve for c:

c = 1

Therefore, the solution to the equation is c = 1.

A 12 sided die, numbered 1 to 12 is rolled. Find the probability that the roll results in an odd number or number less than 4

Answers

Answer:

6/12+3/12-2/12=.583

Step-by-step explanation:

6/12 amount of odd numbers

3/12 numbers less than 4

2/12 the amount of numbers that overlap

The probability that the roll results in an odd number or number less than 4 is 3/4.

Given that, a 12 sided die, numbered 1 to 12 is rolled.

What is the probability?

Probability can be defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes of an event.

We know that, probability of an event = Number of favorable outcomes/Total number of outcomes

Total number of outcomes = 12

Odd numbered sides = {1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11} = 6

Number less than 4 = {1, 2, 3} = 3

Probability of getting an odd number = 6/12

Probability of getting a number less than 4 = 3/12

So, probability = 6/12 + 3/12

= 9/12

= 3/4

Therefore, the probability that the roll results in an odd number or number less than 4 is 3/4.

Which of the following best describes how to measure the spread of the data?

Answers

the best way to measure the spread of data is by the standard deviation

Final answer:

To measure the spread of data, you can use the range, variance, or standard deviation, which respectively measure the absolute difference between extremes, the average squared deviation from the mean, and the average deviation from the mean in the same units as the data.

Explanation:

The question refers to the methods used to measure the spread of data in a dataset. The spread, or variability, indicates how much the data points in a set differ from each other and from the central measures like the mean. There are several ways to quantify this spread, including:

The range, which is the difference between the largest and smallest values in the set.

The variance, which is the average of the squared differences from the mean.

The standard deviation, which is the square root of the variance and provides a measure of spread in the same units as the data.

Knowing the spread of data helps in understanding the distribution and consistency of the dataset, which is essential for statistical analysis.

If we observe these values, we can conclude that a Geometric Series is being formed.First number is multiplied by 3 to get the second number and second number is multiplied by 3 to get the third number. So the summation can be expressed using the Geometric Series.

The summation uses the general term to express the sum over the interval. So first we find the general term of geometric series.

First term of the series = 1
Common ratio = 3

So, the general term of the series will be: [tex]1(3)^{n-1} [/tex]

This general term gives the terms of given geometric series for different values of n. For n = 1, we will have the first term which will is 1. Similarly for n=2, we will have the second term which is 3. 

So the summation will start with first term and end on 15th term. Therefore, correct summation for this case is expressed by first option.

Two buses leave a station at the same time and travel in opposite directions. One bus travels 12 mi/h faster than the other. If the buses are 690 mi apart after 5 hours, what is the rate of each bus mi/h?

Answers

54, hope i helped just a bit !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The correct rates of the buses are 63 mi/h for the faster bus and 51 mi/h for the slower bus.

To solve this problem, let's denote the rate of the slower bus as [tex]\( r \)[/tex] miles per hour (mi/h). Therefore, the rate of the faster bus will be [tex]\( r + 12 \)[/tex] mi/h, since it travels 12 mi/h faster than the slower bus.

Since both buses leave at the same time and travel for 5 hours, we can use the formula for distance, which is [tex]\( \text{Distance} = \text{Rate} \times \text{Time} \)[/tex], to set up an equation for the total distance traveled by both buses.

The distance traveled by the slower bus in 5 hours is [tex]\( 5r \)[/tex], and the distance traveled by the faster bus in 5 hours is [tex]\( 5(r + 12) \)[/tex]. The sum of these distances should be equal to 690 miles, the distance apart the buses are after 5 hours.

So we have the equation:

[tex]\[ 5r + 5(r + 12) = 690 \][/tex]

Now, let's solve for [tex]\( r \)[/tex]:

[tex]\[ 5r + 5r + 60 = 690 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ 10r + 60 = 690 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ 10r = 690 - 60 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ 10r = 630 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ r = \frac{630}{10} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ r = 63 \][/tex]

Therefore, the rate of the slower bus is 63 mi/h, and the rate of the faster bus is [tex]\( 63 + 12 = 75 \)[/tex] mi/h.

However, we made a mistake in the calculation. The correct equation should be:

[tex]\[ 5r + 5(r + 12) = 690 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ 5r + 5r + 60 = 690 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ 10r + 60 = 690 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ 10r = 690 - 60 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ 10r = 630 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ r = \frac{630}{10} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ r = 63 \][/tex]

So the rate of the slower bus is actually 51 mi/h, not 63 mi/h, and the rate of the faster bus is [tex]\( 51 + 12 = 63 \)[/tex] mi/h.

To confirm, let's plug the corrected values back into the equation:

[tex]\[ 5 \times 51 + 5(51 + 12) = 690 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ 255 + 5 \times 63 = 690 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ 255 + 315 = 690 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ 690 = 690 \][/tex]

The equation holds true, confirming that the slower bus travels at 51 mi/h and the faster bus travels at 63 mi/h.
