3(2x-4)=2(x+4)
6x-12=2x+8
6x-2x=8+12
4x=20
x=20/4
x=5

Simplify the equation to
6x-12=2x+8
Subtract 2x from both sides
4x-12=8
Add 12 to both sides
4x=20
Divide both sides by 4
x=5

When x-y=3 work out the value of y-x
GalinKa [24]

The value of y-x is (-3)

<u>Solution:</u>

Given: The value of x-y=3

To find: The value of y-x

\bold{x-y=3\rightarrow (1)}

Let's multiply the equation (1) by (- 1) on both sides,

\Rightarrow\bold{(x - y)\times(- 1) = 3\times(- 1)}

\Rightarrow\bold{-(x-y)=-3}

On multiplying the sign,

\Rightarrow\bold{(-x+y)=-3}

The above equation can also be written as,

\Rightarrow\bold{y-x=-3\rightarrow \text{(The required equation)}}

<u>Multiplication of signs:</u>

\Rightarrow( + )\times( + ) = ( + )

\Rightarrow( + )\times( - ) = ( - )

\Rightarrow( - )\times( + ) = ( - )

\Rightarrow( - )\times( - ) = ( + )

In simpler terms, when we multiply two integers with the same signs, the result is always positive and when we multiply two integers with different signs, the result is always negative.

Find the slope of the line that passes through (-20, -51) and (31, -75).
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

-8/17

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(-75-(-51))/(31-(-20))

m=(-75+51)/(31+20)

m=-24/51

m=-8/17

To solve the exercirses which are shown in the figure attached, you must follow the proccedure below:

 7) (x)=x³-6x²+8x
 (x)=x(x³-6x²+8)
 (x)=(x-4)(x-2)x

 The lenght is: x
 The height is= (x-4)

 8) √(2x+8)-6=4

1. You need to clear the variable "x". Then:

 √(2x+8)=4+6
 √(2x+8)=10
 (√2x+8)²=10²
 2x+8=100
 2x=100-8
 x=92/2
 x=46

 9) l4x+3l=9+2x

 1. To solve the left member, you must evaluate two cases: it could be positive,or negative. Then:

 2. Negative:

 l4x+3l=9+2x
 -4x-3=9+2x
 -4x-2x=9+3
 -6x=12
 x=12/-6
 x=-2

 3. Positive:

 l4x+3l=9+2x
 4x+3=9+2x
 4x-2x=9-3
 2x=6
 x=6/2
 x=3
