d. 2x – 5 = 4x + 7

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: If the word number is replaced by x, and the words 'added', 'times', 'equal' and 'less than' are replaced by symbols, you would be left with: 

5 + 2x = -7 + 4x

If you slightly reorder is, you get:
2x + 5 = 4x - 7

Who is responsible for examining and removing a body from the crime scene?a. police officer
b. coroners assistant
c. detective
d.paramedic

Answers

Answer: The person responsible for examining and removing a body from a crime scene is b. a coroner's assistant.

Explanation:A coroner's assistant is a person whose job is helping the coroner to examine dead bodies and to determine the cause of death of a person. Moreover, a coroner's assistant is also in charge of removing a body from the crime scene. In contrast, paramedics cannot remove a dead body, they can only remove a person that is unconscious or that is injured. Furthermore, detectives and police officers are not allowed to remove bodies from the crime scene either.

The correct answer should be C. Detective

Forensic detectives usually examine the body while it's on scene and after that remove it and take it to the coroner who determines the cause of death.
