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

generate and solve another division problem with the same quotient and remainder as the two problems below. Explain your strateg
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

The dividend is 51 and the divisor is 13.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the remainder is 12, so the divisor must be greater than 12.

So, we can choose any number as a divisor which is greater than 12.

Assume the divisor is 13.

So, when we divide the dividend say, x by the divisor 13 then the quotient will be 3 and the remainder will be 12.

Therefore, x = 13 × 3 + 12 = 51

So, the dividend is 51 and the divisor is 13. (Answer)

Please help, seriously confused
Rufina [12.5K]
Original height = original width = x mm

1. She made an enlarged copy...
height = 2x
width = 2x

2. She cut off a rectangle...
height = 2x
width = \frac{2}{3} *2x= \frac{4}{3}x

3.She doubled the width...
height = 2x
width = 2*\frac{4}{3}x = \frac{8}{3}x

height * width = area

2x * \frac{8}{3}x=139 \ 968  \\ \\ \frac{16}{3}x^2= 139 \ 968 \\\\ x^2=139 \ 968: \frac{16}{3}=139 \ 968 * \frac{3}{16}=  8 \ 748*3 = 26 \ 244 \\  \\ x= \sqrt{26 \ 244} = 162 \ mm

Original height was 162 mm

Find the equation of the line that passes through (-1,2) and is perpendicular to
Natalija [7]

Answer:

Remember that the slope of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals of each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 1 - 2x     the slope is -2     the value of the x term.

So the slope of the new line using point (- 1, 2)  is  1/2.

Now use y = mx + b where y = -1, x = 2, and m = 1/2 .

y = mx + b

-1 = 1/2(2) + b                solve for "b", the y-intersect

-1 =  1 + b

-2 = b

The line that is perpendicular to y = 1 - 2x  is  y = 1/2x - 2
