The answer is A. x=4.


Start off by distributing the parentheses into the equation.

4x+2(x+6)=36

4x+2x+12=26


Combine like terms.

4x+2x=6x

6x+12=36


Now solve the equation as normal. Begin by subtracting 12 from both sides to isolate the variable.

6x+12=36

-12 -12

---------------

6x = 24


Divide 6 on both sides to find x.

6x=24

---- -----

6 6

x=4


The solution to the equation is 4.

X=4


4x+2x+12=36
6x+12=36
6x=36-12

Miki, a resident of Kyoto, earns an annual salary of ¥6,760,950. If the Japanese government levies a 29.12% income tax on Miki’s
ankoles [38]
Find 29.12% of 6,760,950. You can do this by converting 29.12% to a decimal by moving the decimal 2 places to the left and getting rid of the percent sign. Do this and you figure out 29.12% is .2912 as a decimal. Now you multiply this decimal with 6,760,950 to find what the government takes for taxes from his annual salary. You get 1,968,788.64. This is not your final answer because you want to find the amount of money he keeps after taxes. So you'd subtract 1,968,788.64 from 6,760,950. This gives you 4,792,161.36. This is his take-home pay, but you have to round to the nearest yen, so your final answer is 4,792,161.

N is the in center of △ABC. Use the given information to find NS.<br><br><br> NQ=2x<br> NR=3x−2
kramer

Given that N is the incenter of △ABC, NS = 4.

<h3>What is the Incenter of a Triangle?</h3>
  • The incenter of a triangle is the point of concurrency of the three angle bisectors of a triangle.
  • The perpendicular distances from each sides of the triangle to the incenter are equal.

Given the image where:

NQ = 2x

NR = 3x − 2

NQ = NR = NS (equidistant from the incenter)

Thus:

2x = 3x - 2

  • Add like terms

2x - 3x = -2

-x = -2

x = 2

NQ = NS = 2x

  • Plug in the value of x

NS = 2(2)

NS = 4

Therefore, given that N is the incenter of △ABC, NS = 4.
