Answer:

2(n-6)=12

(I went too far in my explanation; I'm not going to erase it because I think it is important to have an example on solving these)

Step-by-step explanation:

Twice the difference of a number and 6 is the same as 12.

Twice means 2 times

Difference means the result of subtracting something.

is the same as means equal to (=).

So we are given 2(n-6)=12.

You can start by dividing 2 on both sides are distributing 2 to terms in the ( ).

I will do it both ways and you can pick your favorite.

2(n-6)=12

Divide both sides by 2.

 n-6  =6

Add 6 on both sides

 n     =12

OR!

2(n-6)=12

Distribute 2 to both terms in the ( )

2n-12=12

Add 12 on both sides

2n    =24

Divide both sides by 2

n       =12

Answer:

35ft squared

Step-by-step explanation:

First lets try solving the rectangular middle part

Width is 3 ft

Height is 5ft + 4ft = 9ft

3*9ft= 27ft. This is area of middle rectangular section

For the triangle, we subtract 3 from the rectangle from 11ft and divide by 2 because the two triangle on the edges are the same.

11-3=8

8/2=4

Triangle area formula = Base*Height / 2

4*4/2

16/2

4ft squared

and the other triangles area is also 4ft squared because they are congruent. So you add all the sections of the area up

27ft+4ft+4ft=35ft squared

35ft squared is the answer.

Hope this helps :)

Greg has decreased his running time by 1/10 minute each of the last six weeks. Write an expression to represent the total change
Nastasia [14]

x is your starting running time. 1/10 of a minute is 6 seconds, so you can do x - 6(6). 6 times 6 = 36, so your answer is x - 36 seconds. 36 seconds.

1 basket is between 9 and 10 minutes .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , John kept track of how many baskets were made in a basketball game. After 4 minutes, 5 baskets were made.  We need to find How many baskets were made between 9 and 10 minutes . Let's find out:

In order to calculate baskets between 9 min and 10 min we will find baskets at 10 min and at at 9 min , will subtract than !

Baskets at 10 min :

At 4 min we have 5 baskets so , in 10 min

⇒ (10)\frac{5}{4}

⇒ 1.25(10)

⇒ 12.5

Baskets at 9 min :

At 4 min we have 5 baskets so , in 9 min

⇒ (9)\frac{5}{4}

⇒ 1.25(9)

⇒ 11.25

So , Baskets between 10 & 9 min is 12.5-11.25=1.25 , which on rounding off gives 1 . Therefore , 1 basket is between 9 and 10 minutes .
