6x-24 2x+12 Solve for X

Mathematics
1 answer:
Makovka662 [10]1 year ago
4 0

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

6x + -24 = 2x + 12

Reorder the terms:

-24 + 6x = 2x + 12

Reorder the terms:

-24 + 6x = 12 + 2x

Solving

-24 + 6x = 12 + 2x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-24 + 6x + -2x = 12 + 2x + -2x

Combine like terms: 6x + -2x = 4x

-24 + 4x = 12 + 2x + -2x

Combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-24 + 4x = 12 + 0

-24 + 4x = 12

Add '24' to each side of the equation.

-24 + 24 + 4x = 12 + 24

Combine like terms: -24 + 24 = 0

0 + 4x = 12 + 24

4x = 12 + 24

Combine like terms: 12 + 24 = 36

4x = 36

Divide each side by '4'.

x = 9

Simplifying

x = 9

A scale drawing of a car is presented in the following three scales. Order the scale drawings from smallest to largest. Explain
Elanso [62]

The order of the scale drawings from smallest to largest is

Smallest

1 in to 1 ft

Second smallest

1 in to 1 yd

Largest

1 in to 1 m

Given the following scales:

1 in to 1 ft

1 in to 1 m

1 in to 1 yd

We are to arrange the scales from smallest to largest.

Since 1 in is used as the base conversion for all the scales, we can convert the other scales to yards for consistency's sake.

Convert 1m to yards

1m = 1.1yards (From the question)

Convert 1ft to yards. According to conversion factor;

1 feet = 0.333333 yards

Ordering the scales from smallest to largest will give

0.33333yard (1 in to 1 ft), 1 yard (1 in to 1 yd), 1.1yards (1 in to 1 m)

Four times a number was 22 greater than twice the same number. What was the number?
Setler [38]

Answer: 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation

Based on the question, we can determine that 4x = 22 + 2x where x in is the number

"Four times a number" -> <u>4x</u>

"was" -> <u>=</u>

"22 greater than" -> <u>22 +</u>

"twice the same number" -> <u>2x</u>

Put the underlined parts together to get <u>4x = 22 + 2x</u>

Solve equation

Rearrange/collect like terms to solve for x by subtracting 2x from both sides

4x = 22 + 2x

2x = 22

Solve for x by dividing each side by 2

2x = 22

x = 11

Final Answer

x = 11
