Find the value of x when 6 - 4x = 6x - 8x + 12

Mathematics

Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write out equation

6 - 4x = 6x - 8x + 12

Step 2: Combine like terms (x)

6 - 4x = -2x + 12

Step 3: Add 4x on both sides

6 = 2x + 12

Step 4: Subtract 12 on both sides

-6 = 2x

Step 5: Divide both sides by 2

-3 = x

Step 6: Rewrite

x = -3

Answer:

The answer is x= -3

Step-by-step explanation:

6 - 4x = 6x - 8x + 12

First, add like terms. (6x-8x)

6-4x=-2x+12

Then "add" 4x to both sides.

6=2x+12

Then subtract 12 from both sides.

-6=2x

The final step is to divide. Divide 2 from both.

Your answer is x= -3

I hope this helps!!!

A ramp to a building has a height of 4 feet and the angle of elevation is 33 defrees. How long is the ramp?
sladkih [1.3K]
Height=4 ft
angle=33 degrees
My tip first is to draw it out. Draw an acute angle opening up to a building forming a triangle. Inside of the vertex of the acute angle is the degree 33 and the height of the building is 4 ft. So, use trig! Do you have a calculator? Opposite over hypotenuse is Sine. (SOH CAH TOA). (4)/(sin(33)). which equals 7.34 ft as your height! Hope this helped!

At a local store, kelly and martin bought some notebooks and pencils. Kelly bought 4 notebooks and 25 pencils for 16.71. Martin
Nat2105 [25]
Let n = cost of 1 notebook
Let p = cost of 1 pencil

Then,

3n + 4p = 8.5
5n + 8p = 14.5

You can solve for one variable in terms of the other and then substitute into the remaining equation.

3n + 4p = 8.5
+ 5n + 8p = 14.5

Multiply the top equation by -2 so that the p-containing terms cancel each other out:

-2(3n + 4p = 8.5)
+ 5n + 8p = 14.5
-n + 0 = -2.5

So after dividing both sides by -1, we see that n = $2.5. Plugging into the first equation gives p = $0.25.


3n + 4p = 8.5
5n + 8p = 14.5
