Answer: x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
-4(-6x + 3) = 12
Reorder the terms:
-4(3 + -6x) = 12
(3 * -4 + -6x * -4) = 12
(-12 + 24x) = 12
Solving
-12 + 24x = 12
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '12' to each side of the equation.
-12 + 12 + 24x = 12 + 12
Combine like terms: -12 + 12 = 0
0 + 24x = 12 + 12
24x = 12 + 12
Combine like terms: 12 + 12 = 24
24x = 24
Divide each side by '24'.
x = 1
Simplifying
x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
4/13 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Total pounds of lasagna = 4 1/3 pounds
Total time taken to cook = 1 1/3 hours
How many hours per pound did it take to cook the lasagna?
Hours per pound of lasagna = Total time taken to cook / Total pounds of lasagna
= 1 1/3 hours ÷ 4 1/3 pounds
= 4/3 ÷ 13/3
= 4/3 × 3/13
= 4/13 hours
It will take 4/13 hours to cook each pound of the lasagna
Answer:
D) V, S, T, U
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that the question is asking for the order from greatest to least. In the case of decimals, I find it easier to compare by placing them in a line going down and filling in zeros where needed to make them the same place values:
2.256 - S
2.220 - T
2.099 - U
2.710 - V
Since they all have the same first digit, I will look at the next digit following the decimal. '7' is the greatest, then '25', then '22' then '09':
D) V, S, T, U
