To solve this, first subtract 6x from both sides.
That is because there cannot be the same variable on both sides of the equation. The new equation would be:
6x=24
Now divide by both sides of the equation by 6
x=4

Perpendicular bisector theorem
Answer:
60.15 km
Step-by-step explanation:
If 6 km on the map represents 4 mi on land, then we'd get the answer by using the relation
6 km -> 4 mi
x km -> 40.1 mi
Where x km is the length on the map we're looking for. If we cross multiply
6 * 40.1 = 4x
240.6 = 4x
x = 240.6/4
x = 60.15 km.
That is the length we're looking for
Answer:
Let x equal the ice thickness. An equality that represents a safe ice thickness for walkability is:
x ≥ 4 inches
(Plus the graph)
Step-by-step explanation:
Defining a variable just means you let any letter or symbol take the place of something. But you have to specifically say what is what in order for it to be clear.
So I defined "x" as the variable to represent the ice's thickness. And since we want an inequality for all the safe thicknesses, we could say that "x" must be greater than or equal to 4 inches thick in order to safely walk on it.
Lastly, you'd graph it with a solid point on 4 with the arrow going to the right.
