Answer:
n/4 - 3 OR 1/4n - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's assign a variable to Emily's number. Let is be <em>x</em>.
Now all we have to do is go through the problem step by step.
"She finds 1/4 of the number..."
There are two ways you can do this. You can either multiply n by 1/4 (1/4n), or you can divide by 4 (dividing by four is the same as finding 1/4 of a number). For this example let's divide by four
n/4
"...and then subtracts 3."
All we have to do is subtract 3 from n/4
n/4 - 3
REMEMBER: like I said, there are two possible options. You can either have n/4 or 1/4n. They mean the same thing
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
g(x) = 3(x + 8).....find g(12).....what ur basically doing is subbing in 12 for x
g(12) = 3(12 + 8)
g(12) = 3(20)
g(12) = 60 <===
Answer:
x=15
Step-by-step explanation:
3(2x+5)=3x+4x
6x+15=3x+4x. *multiplied parentheses by 3*
15=3x+4x+-6. *moves all x to one side*
15=× * added
x=15
