Help me please 2(x-4) = 6x - 6

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

-1/2 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

2 (x - 4) = 6x - 6 (distribute)

2x - 8 = 6x - 6 ( subtract 2x from each side)

- 8 = 4x - 6 ( add 6 to both sides)

-2 = 4x ( divide each side by 4)

x = -2/4 which simplifies to -1/2

Answer 2

Answer:

x is -1/2   (negative one half)

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply distributive property on the left in order to get rid of the parenthesis, and then group all terms in x on the right, and all numerical terms on the left. Combine like terms, and finally solve for "x":

2 (x - 4) = 6 x - 6

2 x - 8 = 6 x - 6

6 - 8 = 6 x - 2 x

-2 = 4 x

x = -2/4

x = -1/2

There will be 4 times the number of M&M's to the number of sunflower seeds according to the ratio.

Using this, we can create a proportion.

According to data from the U.S. Census Bureau, in 2010 21,495 workers in Wake County had a daily commute between 45 and 59 minutes. By 2016 the number of workers with this long of a commute had increased by 82%. How many Wake County workers had a 45-59 minute commute in 2016?

Answers

Answer: about 39,121 workers

=======================================================

Explanation:

Ignore the "45" and "59" as they aren't used in this problem. The year numbers don't matter either.  These numbers are either thrown in as filler or distraction.

We're basically being asked "we started with 21,495 and increased by 82%, what is the new value?"

Take 82% of this to get 0.82*21495 = 17,625.9 which rounds to 17,626 since it doesn't make sense to have a decimal or fractional portion of a person. So the number of workers has increased by about 17,626 people.

Add this to the original amount to get 21,495 + 17,626 = 39,121 which is the answer

--------------

As a shortcut, you could multiply 21495 by 1.82 to indicate an 82% increase

1.82*21495 = 39,120.9 which rounds to 39,121

The length of a rectangular classroom floor is 6 feet more than twice the width the perimeter is 30 feet. What is the length and width of the classroom?

Answers

Answer:

Length = 12.75 feet

Width= 2.25 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length = x

Let the width= y

The length of a rectangular classroom floor is 6 feet more than twice the width

X= 6+2y

The perimeter is 30 feet.

Perimeter= 2(length+width)

Perimeter= 2(x+y)

30= 2x +2y

But x= 6+2y

30 = 2(6+2y) +2y

30= 12 +4y +4y

30-12= 8y

18= 8y

2.25 = y

30= 2x +2y

30= 2x +2(2.25)

30- 4.5= 2x

25.5= 2x

12.75= x

Length = 12.75 feet

Width= 2.25 feet

Suppose you take $25,000 and deposit some of it into a savings account that pays 2.2% interest. You then take the rest of the money and deposit it in a CD that pays 3.05% interest at the end of 10 years the value of both accounts is $31,648. How much was deposited into each account?

Answers

Answer:

The amount deposited in the savings account is $11,494.12

The amount deposited in the CD account is $13,505.88

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, let’s calculate the amount of interest;

Interest = Amount at end of 10 years - amount deposited= 31,648 -25,000 = 6,648

Let the amount deposited in the savings account be $x while the amount deposited in the CD account be $y

Mathematically;

x + y = 25,000 ••••••••••(i)

Now the formula for simple interest is;

PRT/100

where P is the amount deposited, r is the rate and T is the time

On the savings account, amount of interest generated will be;

(x * 2.2 * 10)/100 = 22x/100

On the CD act, amount of interest generated will be;

(y * 3.05 * 10)/100 = 30.5y/100

The addition of both give the total interest;

22x/100 + 30.5y/100 = 6648

Multiply through by 100

22x + 30.5y = 664800 •••••••(ii)

From i, x = 25,000 - y

Substitute this into ii

22(25000-y) + 30.5y = 664800

550,000 -22y + 30.5y = 664,800

8.5y = 664,800-550,000

8.5y = 114,800

y = 114,800/8.5

y = $13,505.88

x = 25,000 -y

x = 25,000 - 13,505.88

x = $11,494.12

Answers

It is B. 3(-3x)+2(2x-1)= -9x+4x-2—> (-5x-2)

The value of 3f(x) + 2g(x) = -5x - 2

Algebra of  functions:

Given f(x) = -3x, g(x) = 2x-1 are the two functions

then by the algebra of two functions(adding two functions) we can find the value of 3f(x) + 2g(x)

Now find

3f(x) = 3(-3x) = -9x            -----------(i)

2g(x) = 2(2x-1)

        = 2(2x)-2(1)                        

2g(x) = 4x-2                     ----------(ii)

Now, add the above two equation (i) and (ii)

3f(x) + 2g(x) = -9x + 4x - 2  

                   = -5x-2

Explanation:

Since he bought 2.25 pounds, you multiply that by 1.6 to get a sum of 3.6. Since he paid with a ten dollar bill, and he only has to pay 3.60, they will give him back 6.40 in change.

my ones digit is 2 more than my thousand digit. the sum of my ones and thousand is my hundreds digit. 3 less that my hundreds digit is my tens digit. my Hundreds thousand and ten thousand are the same. guess what number I can be.

Answers

Answer:

No answer. See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

This number is in the ten-thousands, so it has 5 digits.

Let the number have the form

abcde, where

a = ten-thousands digit

b = thousands digit

c = hundreds digit

d = tens digit

e = ones digit

"my ones digit is 2 more than my thousand digit."

e = b + 2

"the sum of my ones and thousand is my hundreds digit."

e + b = c

"3 less that my hundreds digit is my tens digit."

c - 3 = d

"my Hundreds thousand and ten thousand are the same."

c = b = a

We have 4 equations:

e = b + 2

e + b = c

c - 3 = d

c = b = a

Using the last equation, replace every c and b with a in the first 3 equations.

e = a + 2

e + a = a

a - 3 = d

Using the second equation, subtract a from both sides.

e = 0

Substitute e = 0 in the first equation.

0 = a + 2

a = -2; b = -2; c = -2; d = -5

Since a digit cannot be negative, there is a problem with this question.

You run to the store on your way home from school. You want to buy some Doritos. Should you buy the regular size bag or the party size bag? Calculate the unit price for each size and determine which one is the better buy. 15 oz. Party Size Doritos $3.98 9.75 oz. Doritos $2.98

Answers

Answer:

15 ounce bag is cheaper per ounce than 9.75 ounce bag.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, you should simply take the cost divide by the size for each to find the price per ounce.

$3.98 / 15oz == $0.265 per ounce

$2.98 / 9.75oz == $0.306 per ounce

Note that the 15 oz bag is a better price per ounce than the 9.75 oz bag.

As to what bag you should buy, that really should depend on more factors than just what's best per ounce.  For instance, are you really hungry enough for 15 ounces of doritos, or will 9.75 do just fine?  Also, do you even have the extra dollar it would cost to buy the bigger bag?  Just some stuff to think about.

Cheers.

What is the length of the hypotenuse, x, if (20, 21, x) is a Pythagorean triple?

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the hypotenuse, x, if (20, 21, x) is a Pythagorean triple is 29.

What is Pythagorean triples?

Pythagorean triples are represented as the triple (a, b, c) where a represents the perpendicular side, b represents the base and c represents the hypotenuse.

Pythagoras theorem states that for a right angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is the sum of the squares of base and altitude.

c² = a² + b²

Here a = 20, b = 21 and c = x.

x² = 20² + 21²

x² = 841

x = √841 = 29

Hence the length of the hypotenuse, x, is 29.
