Answer:

$x = - 8$

Second answer is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

$- 4(2x + 3) = 2x + 6 - (8x + 2) \\ - 8x - 12 = 2x + 6 - 8x - 2 \\ - 8x - 12 = - 6x + 4 \\ - 8x + 6x = 12 + 4 \\ - 2x = 16 \\ \frac{ - 2x}{ - 2} = \frac{16}{ - 2} \\ x = - 8$

hope this helps

good luck! have a nice day!

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

solve:

-4(2x+3) =2x+6-(8x+2)

-8x-12 = 2x+6-8x-2

-8x-12 = -6x + 4

-2x = 16

x = -8

Hope this helps.

Good Luck

Fencing a horse corral carol has 2400 ft of fencing to fence in a rectangular horse corral. (a) find a function that models the

Vanyuwa [196]

Here it is given that the width is x ft and total length of the fence is 2400 ft .

Let the length be y ft

So we have

$2(x+y) =2400
\\
x+y=1200
\\
y = 1200 -x$

Let A represents area, and area is the product of length and width .

So we get

$A = x y$

Substituting the value of y, we will get

$A = x (1200-x)= 1200x -x^2$

Second part

The area is maximum at the vertex, and vertex is

$x = - \frac{1200}{2(-1)} = 600 feet$

And

$y=1200-x = 1200-600 = 600 feet$

And that's the required dimensions .
