Match each sum or difference with the correct simplified expression. (x - 5) - (x - 1)

2x - 4

(x - 5) + (x + 1)

2x - 6

(x - 5) - (x + 1)

4.

(x - 5) + (x - 1)

-6

Which is the most efficient first step to solve x in the equation 3.7x - 18 = -4.3x -34 a. add 3.7x to both sides of the equation. b. add 4.3x to both sides of the equation. c. subtract 18 from both sides of the equation. d. subtract 34 from both sides of the equation.

What could explain what happened when the time was equal to 120 minutes

Colby and jaquan are growing bacteria in an experiment in a laboratory. colby starts with 50 bacteria in his culture and the number of bacteria doubles every 2 hours. jaquan starts with 80 of a different type of bacteria that doubles every 3 hours. let x equal number of days. colbys experiment follows the model: a.) y=50*2^x b.) y=50*2^8x c.) y=50*2^12x jaquans experiment follows the model: a.)80*2^x b.)80*2^8x c.)80*2^12x
