A) -9

-7(x+9)=9(x-5)-14x
-7x-63=9x-45-14x
-45 -45
-7x-18=9x-14x
+7x +7x
-18=9x+7x-14x
-18=2x
(-18)/2=(2x)/2
-9=x

-7(x + 9) = 9(x - 5) - 14x → Given
-7x - 63 = 9x - 45 - 14x → Distributive Property
-7x - 63 = -5x - 45 → Combine like terms (9x and -14x)
-12x - 63 = -45 → Addition property of equality (-7x and -5x)
-12x = 18 → Addition property of equality (Add 63 to both sides)
x = -³/₂ or -1 ¹/₂ or -1.5

Hope it helps.

A student factors a^6 - 64 to (a^2 - 4)(a^4 + 4a^2 + 16). Which statement about (a^2 − 4)(a^4 + 4a^2 + 16) is correct?
Lorico [155]
So that equation was definitely correct...

When you expand the equation in the bracket you'll find out that you'll get a^6 + 4a^4 + !6a^2 - 4a^4 - 16a^2 -64. then your final result will be a^6 - 64

40% of 36<br> can somone tell me what it is or how to do it because i am struggling
Karolina [17]

Answer:

14.4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find 40 percent of 36, here's how I do it. Just divide 36 by one hundred (move the decimal point two times to the left), giving you 0.36. Then multiply that by 40, and you get 14.4! Of course, there are multiple ways to do it, but that's just mine. If it doesn't work for you, try and search some formulas.
