19. MP Find the Error A student simplified the
expression (6x - 2) - (-x + 5) to 7x + 3.
Find the student's error and correct it.
Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education
The expression, (6x - 2) - (-x + 5), is simplified as 7x - 7. The student's error was wrong calculation in the final steps where he subtracted 2 from 5.
What is a Simplified Expression?A simplified expression is an expression that is evaluated to its simplest form, that is, it cannot be simplified further.
Given:
(6x - 2) - (-x + 5)
Open the bracket by multiplying each of the terms in (-x + 5) by the negative sign (-):
6x - 2 + x - 5
Combine like terms
7x - 7
Thus, the expression, (6x - 2) - (-x + 5), is simplified as 7x - 7. The student's error was wrong calculation in the final steps where he subtracted 2 from 5.

A camel can drink 15 gallons of water in 10 minutes. At this rate, how much water can the camel drink in 6 minutes?
Answer:
9 gallons of waterStep-by-step explanation:
Given,
A camel drinks water in 10 minutes = 15 gallons
So,
Water drank by the camel in 1 minute = [tex]\frac{15}{10} gallon[/tex]
So, Water drank by the camel in 6 minutes
= ( [tex]\frac{15}{10}[/tex] × 6) gallons
[On Simplifying]= 1.5 × 6 gallons
[On multiplying]= 9 gallons
Hence,
Amount of water drank by the camel in 6 minutes is 9 gallons of water. (Ans)

What is the equation of a line with a slope of -1 and a y-intercept of -5?
[tex]\huge\boxed{\boxed{Hello\:there!}}[/tex]
We are given the slope of the line and its y-intercept, so we can easily determine its equation.
Since we have the slope and the y-intercept, we can write the equation in slope-intercept form.
Slope-Intercept form looks like so:
y=mx+b
Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Slope: -1
Y-intercept: -5
Equation: y=-1x-5
y=-x-5 (Answer)

Jake buys a car for $1500 and sells it for $1800. What is Jake’s percentage profit?
step by step explanation:
Jake brought a car = 1500rs
Jake sell the car = 1800
profit = sp-cp
so profit = 1800-1500 = 300
profit percent = gain/cp×100
profit percent = 300/1500×100
profit percent = 20% (double zero are cancel and 300 divided by 15)
100 points

Answers and Step-by-step explanations:
(Answers are all bold-ed and underlined.)
For these problems, they are asking you to fill in the blanks by noticing and by trying to find a pattern. In order to determine what the values are, this will require multiplication and division.
Table 1:
For the cars side, we can notice that that side of the table is going by 4's. Because 4, 12 and 16 are all multiples of 4. So, let's fill in this side.
Cars:
4
8
12
16
20
And, if we look at the trucks side, we can also notice a pattern of 5's. The numbers 5, 10, 15, and 25 are all multiples of 5. Now we can fill in the trucks side.
Trucks:
5
10
15
20
25
We can notice a pattern that both sides of the equation are being multiplied by 1, 2, 3, and so on (4x1=4, 4x2=8, 4x3=12...).
Table 2:
This table requires a little bit more work. We are going to need to do division for this problem. First, let's pick a value on the "Total ($)" side. From there, we can then take the "Pounds" side and use that to find the rest of the answers. Because 1.50 is the number below the first column, it will be the easiest to use to find what goes in that first column. And because we are using this column, we also have to use the "Pounds" side as well. So our equation will look something like this:
1.50 ÷ 2 = 0.75
So we can now place this in the first column. We can now use this to fill out the rest of the table. Because 0.75 x 2 = 1.50, then we can conclude that those pounds represent what we are multiplying the 0.75 by.
Total ($):
0.75
1.50
2.25
3.00
6.00
For the pounds side all we have to do is divide the Total ($) sides by the 0.75 to get our answer.
Pounds:
1
2
3
4
8
Table 3:
This table shouldn't be very hard since it already gives us the first value. All we do is just multiply the cookies by the calories to get our answers for the Calories side.
Second column: 35 x 2 = 70, and so onto the rest of the columns.
Calories:
35
70
140
280
350

A boat costs $92,000.00 and depreciates in value by 15% per year. How much will the boat be worth after 10 years?
Answer:
$18,112.45 (nearest cent)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let y = value of the boat
Let x = the number of years
If the boat depreciates in value by 15% each year, then each year that goes by, it is worth 85% of the previous year's value (since 100 - 15 = 85)
85% = 85/100 = 0.85
Therefore, the equation is: [tex]y = 92000 \times 0.85^x[/tex]
So, when x = 10:
[tex]\implies y = 92000 \times 0.85^{10}=18112.45[/tex]

Answer:
8 cookies left to be baked
Step-by-step explanation:
Len
Len bakes 1/3 of 30 cookies
To find 1/3 of 30, divide 30 by 3 then multiply by 1:
[tex]\implies \frac{30}{3} \times1=10 \times 1=10[/tex]
Therefore, Len bakes 10 cookies
Sallesh
Sallesh bakes 2/5 of 30 cookies
To find 2/5 of 30, divide 30 by 5 then multiply by 2:
[tex]\implies \frac{30}{5} \times2=6 \times 2=12[/tex]
Therefore, Sallesh bakes 12 cookies
Cookies left to bake
To calculate how many cookies are left to bake, subtract the found number of cookies Len and Sallesh have baked from 30:
30 - 10 - 12 = 8
So there are 8 cookies left to be baked.
Total cookies both baked
[tex]\\ \tt\longmapsto \dfrac{1}{3}+\dfrac{2}{5}[/tex]
[tex]\\ \tt\longmapsto \dfrac{5+6}{15}=\dfrac{11}{15}[/tex]
Cookies left:-
[tex]\\ \tt\longmapsto 30-11/15(30)=30-22=8[/tex]
At what point does the graph of y=9x(x is exponent) cross the y-axis?
A. (0,9)
B. (9,0)
C. (0,1)
D. (1,0)
Answer:
-The graph crosses the y-axis at the point (0,0)
None of the given options is correct
A graph crosses the y-axis at the point (0,y).This means that the graph will cross the y-axis when x-=0
To find the point where the graph crosses the y-axis,substitute x=0 into the given equation y-9x
substitute x=0 into the equation y-9x to find the corresponding value of y
That is,
y=9(0)
y=0
therefore the graph crosses the y-axis at the point (0,0)

Answer:
a) x = -2
b) 8 integer values
Step-by-step explanation:
Matthew's solution is correct as far as it goes. However, he failed to take into account the possibility of negative square roots.
His solution might rightly look like ...
3 < 3x² ≤ 75
1 < x² ≤ 25 . . . . . divide by 3
1 < ±x ≤ 5 . . . . . . take the square root
Separating the results:
1 < x ≤ 5
-1 > x ≥ -5 . . . . . . multiply by -1
a)The value x=-2 shows Matthew's solution is incorrect:
3 < 3(-2)² ≤ 25 ⇒ 3 < 12 ≤ 25 . . . true
__
b)x can have the integer values {-5, -4, -3, -2, 2, 3, 4, 5}, a total of 8 values.
__
In the attached, the white space (and dashed line) are the solution set. The shaded areas (and solid line) are excluded from the solution set.
_____
Additional comment
It can be helpful to remember that ...
[tex]\sqrt{x^2}=|\,x|\ne x[/tex]
That is, values of x may be negative, but the positive square root will only show you a positive value.

Rob is saving to buy a new MP3 player. For every $14 he earns babysitting, he saves $5. On Saturday, Rob earned $56 babysitting. How much money did he save?
Answer:
ok so from looking at this if he earns 14 dollars he saves 5 so he saves
5/14 so lets just multiply this by the 56
56*5/14=20
so he saves 20
