3x-6+4=-20

- add 6 to both sides

3x+4=-20 +6

3x+4=-14

- then subtract 4 from both sides

3x=-14 - 4

3x=-18

- then divide 3 from both sides

-18 divided by 3 = -6

x= -6

3x-6+4=-20. First, you would take -6 and add 4 which would give you -2. So now the equation is, 3x-2=-20. then you would take -20 and move -2 over and add it because you would do the inverse. Then you have 3x=-18. So then you would take -18 and you will do 3x and divide it because you would do the opposite of multiplication. so then you would get x=6

Describe a situation that fits each equation. Describe more than one situation for each equation, if possible.
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4x − 1 = 19

solving for x, x = 5

2x − 4 = 10

x=7

2x + 2y = 48

x=24-7

y=24-x

5x + 2y = 90

x=18-2y/5

y=45-5x/2

all the situations I could find hope this helps for each equation.

Pablo's Coffee Shop makes a blend that is a mixture of two types of coffee. Type A coffee costs Pablo $5.50 per pound, and type
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

We know blend A costs 5.50 and blend B costs 4.30. We know that Pablo made 153 pounds of coffee this month. Let's let A=amount of blend A used and B=amount of blend B used. Since he made 153lbs coffee, we know that

A+B=153.

But he spent 756.30. The total amount he spent on a blend of coffee is the price * amount used. So he spent 5.50*A on blend A and 4.30*B on B, so in total, he spent 5.50*A+4.30*B in coffee. But this must add to 756.30! So

5.5A+4.3B = 756.30

Now we have two equations:

A+B = 153

5.5A + 4.3B = 756.30

We need to solve for B. I hate decimals so let's get rid of them in the second equation by multiplying both sides of the equation by 100 (which simply moves the decimals on everything two to the right). So now we have

A+B = 153

550A + 430 B = 75630

Now let's multiply the first equation by 550 (so we can eventually get rid of pesky A). So multiply the left and right side of the first equation by 550, so we have

550A + 550B = 84150

550A + 430B = 75630

Now subtract the second equation from the first, notice that since both have 550A, they cancel, so we obtain

120B = 8520

Now divide by 120 into both sides to solve for B, we get

B= 8520/120 = 71

So Pablo used 71lbs of blend B.

Hope this helps you!!!!! :D
