Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x= -10

(if you are solving for the x value):

-4x+2=42

subtract two to both sides to cancel the two from the side with -4x

-4x+2-2=42-2

-4x=40

then divide both sides by -4 to get the x by its self

-4x/-4=40/-4

so..

x= -10

Answer:

x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

move all the constants (numbers without variables) to one side to get

-4x = 42 - 2

-4x = 40

multiply by -1

4x = -40

divide by 4

x = -10

A loan of $900 will be repaid in 36 installment payments of $30.22 each. What the finance charge for the loan?
zimovet [89]
First you need to multiply 36 *$30.22=$1087.92
This gives you the total amount paid

Then subtract 1087.92-900=187.92
This gives you the amount of money you paid in finance charges.

Jacob is 5 5/6 feet tall. Linda is 5 1/4 feet tall. How much taller is Jacob?
SCORPION-xisa [38]
This problem boils down to 5/6 - 1/4

To subtract these fractions you need a common denominator.

I'll use 12

The first fraction becomes 10/12 and the second fraction becomes 3/12

10/12-3/12 = 7/12

So Jacob is 7/12 of a foot taller than Linda.

Also note than since 12 inches = 1 foot, you could say Jacob is 7 inches taller than Linda

Hello, thanks for answering. Your a hero. :)
lyudmila [28]
They added it wrong. They added it like this:

100 + 700 + 800 + 560
When it shouldve been this:

100 + 70 + 80 + 56
They just added a place marker in all numbers below 100.
