I'm confused can you edit your question and then ask it again
140 because 14 ten times is 140 and thats the same value as 14 tens
Step-by-step explanation:
your don't see what went wrong ?
Tyrell worked on
16 - 2(4 + 3x)
what do brackets mean ? they mean that this operation has to be done before everything else in the expression.
as this contains a variable, we cannot fully calculate it, true, but we need to keep this in mind and always treat the content of the brackets as one package.
so, whatever I do from the outside with one part of that package, I have to do also with all the other parts of that package.
so, the multiplication with -2 has to happen with both : 4 and 3x. not just with 4.
therefore, the correct simplification looks like
16 - 8 - 6x
8 - 6x or -6x + 8
Amelia multiplied correctly, but then made a mistake summing things up
10x - 3(4x + 1)
10x - 12x - 3
10x - 12x = -2x
I can't mix the pure constant -3 into the factors of x. that would be like the famous mixing of apples and oranges.
so, the result is
-2x - 3
Answer:
Ted will need
cups of pretzels to make 15 cups of trail mix.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ted is making trail mix for a party. He mixes 1 1/2 cups of nuts, 1/4 cup of raisins, and 1/4 cup of pretzels.
So, 1/4 cup of pretzels to make 1 trail mix
x cups of pretzels to make 15 trail mix
Using the ratio and proportional
∴ x = (1/4) * 15 = 3.75 =
cups.
<u>Ted will need </u>
<u> cups of pretzels to make 15 cups of trail mix.</u>
Answer:
7.5 or 15/2
Step-by-step explanation:
x-3x+6=2x-24 -- Combine like terms
-2x+6=2x-24 -- Add 2x to each side
6 = 4x-24 -- add 24 to each side
30 = 4x -- divide by 4
15/2 or 7.5 = x
