Answer: -9

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the equation, isolate the variable, then use basic arithmetic.

Subtract 4x on both sides to obtain the equation:

-12 = 4x + 24

Subtract 24 on both sides to isolate 4x, and obtain the equation:

-36 = 4x

Finally, divide both sides by 4 to obtain the following:

-9 = x

Answer:

The formula T= 10d +20

A) what does each term on the right side of the equation represent?

  • 10d⇒ 10 degrees increase per 1 km and 20 deg surface temperature

B) Estimate the depth where the temperature is 60 degrees C.

  • 60=10d+20
  • 10d=40
  • d=4 km

C) What is the approximate temperature at a depth of 4km?

  • T=10*4+20

I need this problem worked out. I already know the answer just not the work.

Answer

n = 30

Explanation

To solve for n, you have to isolate it by 'getting rid' of the 18, 2, and negative sign.

You 'remove' these numbers in backward PEMDAS.

So to 'remove' the 18, you subtract both sides by 18.

3-18 = -15

-n/2+18-18 = -n/2

So now you are left with -15 = -n/2.

To 'get rid' of the 2, you multiply each side by 2.

-15×2 = -30

-n/2×2 = -n

And now you have -30 = -n.

To 'get rid' of the negative sign, you multiply both sides by -1.

-30×-1 = 30

-n×-1 = n

So you get 30 = n or n = 30.

If you still have questions I'll answer them in the comments (under this question).
