Which substitution for the letter z will make the expression "2(3z ÷ 5)" equal 12?

Jessica and martha each have a bag of cookies with unequal quantities. they have 30 cookies total between the two of them. each of them ate 6 cookies from their bag. the product of the number of cookies left in each bag is not more than 80. how many more cookies will jessica have martha? if x represents the number of cookies jessica started with, complete the statements below. the inequality that describes the relationship between the number of cookies each one of them has is x^2 - x +224 > = 0.jessica has at least cookies more than martha.

Solve the equation by completing the square. x^2+2x=17

20 solve 2(4 x + 3) < 5 x + 21. a) { x | x < 9} b) { x | x > -5} c) { x | x > -9} d) { x | x < 5}
