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.
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
The degree of the polynomial is the highest exponent of an expression. When more than one variable is present, its is the sum of exponents on one term in the expression.
The polynomial has terms xy, 3x^2, -7 and x. The term with the highest exponent sum is xy or 3x^2. Both have degree 2. The degree of the polynomial is 2.
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 2 = 3(4) - 2 = 12 - 2 = 10
