Five more than twie the number is 17

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: I assume you meant: Five more than twice the number is 17.
If so, you're going to set up your equation as: 17 = 2x+5
17 being the total, 2x being "twice the number", and +5 being "five more than".
Now, subtract 5 from both sides of the equation.
You have 12 = 2x
Then, divide by 2.
You get 6 = x.

Answer 2

Answer:

Hey, Edwin7311!

Is means equal sign

More means addition

Twice means times 2.

5+2x=17

Subtract 5 from each side.

5+2x-5=17-5

2x=12

Divide 2 from each side.

x=6

I hope this helps;)

On a given morning the temperature was 71°F. The temperature dropped 5°F and then rose 8°F. How much does the temperature need to rise or fall to return to the initial temperature of 71°F? A) Fall 8°F
B) Fall 3°F
C) Rise 8°F
D) Rise 5°F

Answers

The temp starts at 71 degrees then drops 5 degrees

71 - 5 = 66 degrees

then it rises 8 degrees

66 + 8 = 74 degrees

How much does the temp have to rise or fall to get back to 71...

74 - 71 = 3 degrees

It has to fall 3 degrees F. Answer B.

B. Fall 3°F is your answer.

B. ( 2000 - 150x) dollars
C.150x dollars
D.(2000 + 150x) dollars

Answers

Hi there! The answer to your question is B. The way I got B is because it says he has budget of $2000 and he spends $150 each day. It doesn't tell us how much days he is going on for vacation but the x represents the days he is going since it says $150 each day.

Hope I helped! :D

i'm not sure but it seems like to me it may be B.

Use division to determine whether the ratios form a proportion. 1/4 and 6/24

A.
Yes. They form a proportion.

B.
No. They do not form a proportion.

Answers

A. Yes. They form a proportion.

Because: 1/4, 6/24.

Reduce 6/24 to lowest terms. 6 into 6 is 1 and 6 into 24 is 4.

6/24 = 1/4. This is same as the other 1/4.

A. yes. they form a proportion
1/4 and 6/24

6/24=1/4
1/4=.75
1/4=.75

Find y when x=15 if y=6 when x=30

Answers

y=kx
6=k (30)
6/30=k(30)/30
.2=k
y=.2(15)
y=3
So y is 3.

Y = 12 because you multiply x by two to get x2, which is 30, and multiply y by two to get 12 - this is wrong, the answer is three, i did the math backwards
