240,000 could be written as:

24 x 10,000 = 240,000 and 10,000 = 10⁴

then 240,000 = 24 x 10⁴

Solve the equation ( 1 point) 3/4x=9 A) X=12 B) X=108 C) X=72 D) X= 4/9

Elena L [17]

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

(3 x)/4 = 9

Multiply both sides of (3 x)/4 = 9 by 4/3:

(4×3 x)/(3×4) = 4/3×9

4/3×3/4 = (4×3)/(3×4):

(4×3)/(3×4) x = 4/3×9

4/3×9 = (4×9)/3:

(4×3 x)/(3×4) = (4×9)/3

(4×3 x)/(3×4) = (3×4)/(3×4)×x = x:

x = (4×9)/3

9/3 = (3×3)/3 = 3:

x = 4×3

4×3 = 12:

Answer: x = 12

6) three times a number increased by four is less than -62

Irina-Kira [14]

6) 3x + 4 < - 62 x = - 23 ⇒ 3(-23) + 4 < - 62
 - 4 - 4 -69 + 4 < - 62
3x < -66 - 65 < - 62
÷ 3 ÷3
x < -22

7) x/-5 + 1 < 7 x = -30 ⇒ -30/-5 + 1 < 7
 - 1 -1 6 + 1 < 7
x/-5 < 6 7 < 7
 × -5 × -5
x < -30

8) x/3 - 2 > -12 x = -30 ⇒ -30/3 - 2 > -12
x/3 > -10 -10 - 2 > -12
* 3 *3 -12 > -12
x > -30

9) -2x - 6 > -18 x = 5 ⇒ -2(5) - 6 > -18
 +6 +6 -10 - 6 > -18
-2x > -12 -16 > -18
 ÷ -2 ÷ -2
x > 6 ⇒ x < 6
*flip the inequality sign because the divisor is a negative number: This is to make the inequality true.
