After a parade, a group of volunteers is helping to pick up the trash along a 2-mile stretch of a road. The group decides to divide the length of the road so that each volunteer is responsible for cleaning
up equal-length sections.
1. Find the length of a road section for each volunteer if there are the following numbers of
volunteers. Show your reasoning.
a. 8 volunteers
b. 10 volunteers
c. 25 volunteers
d. 36 volunteers

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

7x+8(x+

)=3(6x−9)−8

7x+(8)(x)+(8)(

4

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.

step-by-step explanation:

"image"

step-by-step explanation:

in most of these problems, the notation is that the point with a "prime" is the image of the point without. that is, b' is the image of b.

here, there is no dilation or reflection. there is simply translation (with no direction shown). which figure you call the "preimage" and which one you call the "image" is up to you. as a matter of convention, the naming is as described above.
