Total questions = 320 
Total mathematics problems = 40
Total non-mathematics problem = 320 - 40 = 280

Twice the amount of time is needed for mathematics problem.
40 x 2x + 280 x = 3 hours
80x + 280x = 3 hours
360x = 180 mins
x = 0.5 mins
2x = 0.5 x 2  = 1 min

Answer: 1 min should be spent on Mathematics problems

Answer:

1 minute should be spent on each math problem

Step-by-step explanation:

Total questions = 320  

Mathematics problems = 40

Non-mathematics problem = 320 - 40 = 280

Twice the amount of time is needed for mathematics problem.

40 x 2x + 280 x = 3 hours

80x + 280x = 3 hours

360x = 180 mins

x = 0.5 mins

2x = 0.5 x 2  = 1 min

6x-3-11-8x=2 please show work
Ludmilka [50]

Answer: is x = -8

this is how i got it ______

6 x - 3 - 11 - 8 x = 2

(simplify both sides and combine like terms)

(6x + -8x ) + ( -3 + -11) = 2

- 2x  +  -14 = 2

-2x  -  14 = 2

( then you add 14 to both sides)

- 2x - 14 = 2

     +14       +14

-2x = 16

( then you divide both sides by -2)

-2x / -2   =   16/ -2

x = -8

ta da!! happy to help!

it made it here. this is for the second one.

( first, we subtract 8n from both sides)

13n + 26 = 8n - 29

-8n           -8n

5n + 26  =  -29

( then we subtract 26 from both sides)

5n + 26 = -29

     - 26    -26

5n = - 55

(after that we divide both sides by 5, we do this to make n alone )

5n/ 5 = -55/ 5

n = -11
