Answer: 28
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
2x + 16 = 3x + -12
Reorder the terms:
16 + 2x = 3x + -12
Reorder the terms:
16 + 2x = -12 + 3x
Solving
16 + 2x = -12 + 3x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.
16 + 2x + -3x = -12 + 3x + -3x
Combine like terms: 2x + -3x = -1x
16 + -1x = -12 + 3x + -3x
Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0
16 + -1x = -12 + 0
16 + -1x = -12
Add '-16' to each side of the equation.
16 + -16 + -1x = -12 + -16
Combine like terms: 16 + -16 = 0
0 + -1x = -12 + -16
-1x = -12 + -16
Combine like terms: -12 + -16 = -28
-1x = -28
Divide each side by '-1'.
x = 28
Simplifying
x = 28
Answer:
1/4=0.25=25%
Step-by-step explanation:
A coin has two sides, heads and tails, and if you take 100% divided by two you get 50, you want to know what is the probability it will land on tails TWICE so divide 50 by two and you get 25.
1/2=50
1/4=25
0.25 x 100= 25%

Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
8x3=24
24 divided by 4 = 6 pieces of gum to each friend.
Scale factor is the ratio of two corresponding sides.
Here we have two triangles, where the preimage is the smaller triangle and the image is the larger triangle.
So scale factor =14/18 = 7/9
And to find the missing variable, we need to set the ratio.
7/9 = 28/x
Cross multiplying both sides
7x = 28*9
x = 36
