- Multiply (-2x-4) by -5:
[(-5)(-2x) + (-5)(-4)] +5x - 4 = -29
= 10x+20+5x-4=-29
- Combine Like Terms:
(10x+5x) + (20-4) = -29
15x+16=-29
- Subtract 16 from each side
15x+16 -16 = -29 -16
15x = -45
x = -3
Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
A six sided die has 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. Out of those numbers, 3 of those are even numbers. Meaning you have a 3/6 chance. This 3/6 can be reduced to 1/2.
Luke: 1 practice 1 lap, 2 practices 2 laps, 3 practices 3 laps, 4 practices 4 laps
Alex: 1 practice 3 laps, 2 practices 6 laps, 3 practices 9 laps, 4 practices 12 laps
Luke ran 3 laps for 3 practices, and Alex ran 9 laps for 3 practices.
