What is the answer to 3x - 9 equals 3 (x-5)​

No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the solution to 3x - 9 equals 3(x - 5), we would have to solve for x.

First set the two expressions equal to each other.

3x - 9 = 3(x - 5)

Now we can distribute the 3 on the right side.

3x - 9 = 3x - (3 * 5)

Simplify

3x - 9 = 3x - 15

Now lets try to get x alone on one side of the equality. Subtract 3x from both sides to cancel out of 3x on the right side.

3x - 9 - 3x = 3x - 15 - 3x

-9 = -15

And as you may have realized, -9 does not equal -15.

Why did the x disappear? Why did we end up with -9 = -15 which is clearly a false statement? This is because the the lines y = 3x - 9 and y = 3(x - 15) are parallel. Thus, they will never intersect and the equality 3x - 9 = 3(x - 5) will have no solution.

So there is no solution.

I hope you find my answer to be helpful. Let me know if you have any questions. Happy studying.

the answer is 24

step-by-step explanation:

45.36 feet per second.

step-by-step explanation:

to find the most accurate determination for the number of feet per second tyrone traveled on his way to work let us convert miles to feet and minutes to seconds.

1 mile = 5280 feet.

1 minute = 60 seconds.

now we will divide 158400 by 3492 to find the most accurate determination for the number of feet per second tyrone traveled on his way to work.

therefore, tyrone traveled on his way to work at the rate of 45.36 feet per second.
