Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

6(5 - 2x) + 12 = -66

Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>

  1. Distribute 6: 30 - 12x + 12 = -66
  2. Combine like terms: 42 - 12x = -66
  3. Subtract 42 on both sides: -12x = -108
  4. Divide both sides by -12: x = 9

Step 3: Check

<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>

6(5 - 2(9)) + 12 = -66

6(5 - 18) + 12 = -66

6(-13) + 12 = -66

-78 + 12 = -66

-66 = -66

Chris cut a rope into two pieces. One piece was 11.36 meters long and the other piece was 13.46 meters long. About how long was
rosijanka [135]
If you would like to know about how long was the rope before Chris cut it and you would like to round each length to the nearest tenth to estimate the total length of the original piece of rope, you can calculate this using the following steps:

11.36 meters = 11.4 meters
13.46 meters = 13.5 meters

11.4 + 13.5 = 24.9 meters

Result: The rope was 24.9 meters long (before Chris cut it) - rounded to the nearest tenth.

Arrange the following measurements in order from smallest to largest.
juin [17]

Answer:Arrange the following measurements in order from smallest to largest.

0.35 kilogram, 5 gram, 9.4 gram

Step-by-step explanation:Kilograms (Kg) and grams (g) are both units of measurement for MASS quantity. However, these units are not the same as they vary in magnitude. The kilograms is bigger unit of measurement than the grams. 1000grams makes 1kilograms.

According to this question, 0.35 kilograms 9.4 grams and 5 grams are to be arranged in ascending order i.e. from smallest to largest. First, we need to change all the units to the same.

We change 0.35kg to g

Since 1000g = 1kg

Then, 0.35kg = 0.35 × 1000

= 350g.

Rearranging the values, we have:

5 grams < 9.4 grams < 0.35 kilograms
