Emily is solving the equation 2(x+9)=4(x+7)+2 where did she make an error

Hello!

2(x + 9) = 4(x + 7) + 2

Distribute the 2

2x + 18 = 4(x + 7) + 2

Distribute the 4

2x + 18 = 4x + 28 + 2

Combine like terms

2x + 18 = 4x + 30

Subtract 18 from both sides

2x = 4x + 12

Subtract 4x from both sides

-2x = 12

Divide both sides by -2

x = -6

Where she did something different than me is her mistake

Hope this helps!

12 1/4 because the original answer is 12 3/12 but you should simplify it to 12 1/4.

Which graph represents the solution set of the compound inequality below? x + 3 &lt; (4x – 12) &lt; 20
nordsb [41]

x + 3 < 4x - 12                 or            4x - 12 < 20

<u>-x      </u>   <u> -x         </u>                              <u>     +12 </u>  <u>+12 </u>

     3 < 3x - 12                 or           4x        < 32

<u>    +12</u>   <u>     +12  </u>                            <u> ÷4        </u>   <u>÷4  </u>

    15 < 3x                       or              x        <  8

<u>    ÷3</u>    <u>÷3 </u>

    5 <  x

5 < x < 8

Graph:   5 o---------------o 8

Julia can finish a 20-mile bike ride in 1.2 hours. Katie can finish the same bike ride in 1.6 hours. How much faster does Julia
Nimfa-mama [501]

We know that,speed = \frac{distance}{time}

Julia can finish a 20-mile bike ride in 1.2 hours.

The distance Julia travels is 20 miles and the time she takes is 1.2 hours.

So, Julia's speed = \frac{20}{1.2} = 16.67 mph


Katie can finish the same bike ride in 1.6 hours.

The distance Katie travels is 20 miles and the time she takes is 1.6 hours.

So, Katie's speed = \frac{20}{1.6} = 12.5 mph


Now, to find how much faster Julia rides than Katie we subtract Katie's speed from Julia's speed.

So, 16.67 mph - 12.5 mph = 4.17 mph = 4.2 mph (approximately)

Thus, Julia rides 4.2 mph faster than Katie.
