-3(x-4) = -9(x - 1)
X=?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = - 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

-3(x-4) = -9(x - 1)

1. Distributive Property

-3 * x -3 *-4 = -9 * x -9 * -1

-3x + 12 = -9x + 9

Hint: 2 negatives make a postive

-3x + 12 = -9x + 9

2. Subtract 12 on both sides

-3x + 12 - 12 = -9x + 9 - 12

-3x = -9x + -3

3. Add 9x on both sides

-3x + 9x = -9x + 9x + -3

6x = -3

4. Divide both sides by 6 to isolate the variable

6x/6 = -3/6

x = - 1/2

Check:

-3(-1/2-4) = -9( -1/2- 1)

3/2 + 12 = 9/2 + 9

3/2 + 12 ( we need a common denominator so...lets make it  2 )

3/2 + 12*2/1*2

3/2 + 24/2 = 27/2 = 13 1/2 = 13. 5

Now...

9/2 + 9 ( we need a common denominator so..lets make it 2 )

9/2 + 9*2/1*2

9/2 + 18/2 = 27/2 = 13 1/2 = 13.5

13.5 = 13.5 CORRECT!

27/2 = improper fraction

13 1/2 = mixed number

13.5= decimal form

Hope this helped

55% of the cookies Joel baked had chocolate chips. If Joel baked 77 cookies with chocolate chips, how many cookies did he bake?

Answers

Answer:

140 cookies

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question all we have to do is divide 77 by 0.55

Why 0.55 because 0.55 is the decimal version of 55%

once we divide 77 by 0.55 that will give us our answer of 140 cookies.

Now to check our answer:

If Joel made 140 cookies and 77 of those cookies are chocolate chip that would leave us with 63 cookies without chocolate chips. If we estimate our answer then 63 cookies would make total sense since we know that 55% = 77

then the other 45% would have to equal around 60-70 cookies

sweater regularly priced for $84 is placed on sale for $67.20. What is the percent discount?

Answers

Answer:  20% discount

Work Shown:

amount saved = 84-67.20 = 16.80 dollars

Divide this over the original larger price to get 16.80/84 = 0.20 = 20%

Note how 20% of 84 = 0.20*84 = 16.80 to help check the answer.

Or we can say 0.80*84 = 67.20 which also helps confirm the answer.

The 0.80 is from the fact that you save 20% but still have to pay the remaining 80%

X, Y and Z are three points on a map. Y is 75km and on a bearing of 200° from X. Z is on a bearing of 150°, from Y. Z is due south of X. Calculate the distance between X and Z rounded to 1 DP.

Answers

Answer:

The distance between X and Z is approximately 114.9 km

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The distance of Y from X = 75 km

The bearing of Y from X = 200°

The bearing of Z from Y = 150°

The bearing of Z from X = 180°

In triangle XYZ, we have;

∠YZX = 180° - (130° + 20°) = 30°

By sine rule, we have;

(75 km)/sin(30°) = XZ/(sin(130°))

XZ = sin(130°) × (75 km)/sin(30°) ≈ 114.9 km

The distance between X and Z ≈ 114.9 km. to one decimal place.

Greatest Common Factor Find the GCF of the given expression: 4x2+28x When providing your answer, do not add any unnecessary spaces. Example: 2(x-1) ​

Answers

Answer:

4x(x+7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Both 4x^2 and 28x are divisible by 4x, which is also the GCF. This means you just have to divide the different parts of the expression to get 4x(x+7)

The Greatest Common Factor of the given expression 4x² + 28x will be 4x.

What is the greatest common factor?

Simply said, it is the biggest common element. The highest consistent element in the above example is 15, making 15 the greatest common factor amongst 15, 30, and 105. The biggest chunk of the common factors is called the "Greatest Common Factor" (of two or more numbers).

The expression is given below.

⇒ 4x² + 28x

Take common 4x from both the terms, then we have

⇒ 4x² + 28x

⇒ 4x(x + 7)

The Greatest Common Factor of the given expression 4x² + 28x will be 4x.
