Janes weight = x
Twelve pounds less than twice janes weight is 270 pounds
12 less than 2x is 270
2x -12 = 270 (add 12 to each side)
2x = 270 + 12
2x = 282 (divide 2 from each side)
x = 282/2
x = 141
The answer is 141 pounds
Answer:
Linear Equations In One Variable =
Next step :
in the equation y/6 = 156, it would be equivalent to y = 156 × 6.
so that :
y = 156 × 6
y = 936
this equation solved. (Answer : 936)
The answer is -3, hope this helps!
Answer:
The solution has been given in the following attachment .
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x
so assuming that the fractions are
(9/4)-(1/*2x))=4/x then
get all x on one side
add 1/(2x) to both sides
9/4=(4/x)+(1/(2x))
make common denomators with x and 2x
common denomenator is 2x
4/x times 2/2=8/(2x)
9/4=8/(2x)+1/(2x)
add
9/4=9/(2x)
make common denomators with 4 and 2x
common denomator is 4x
9/4 times x/x=9x/(4x)
9/(2x) times 2/2=18/(4x)
9x/(4x)=18/(4x)
multiply both sides by 4x to clear fraction
9x=18
divide both sides by 9
x=2
