6 0

Answer:

There is an infinite number of solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

When you simplify the left side of the equation, you get -7n - 14, which is equal to the right side. If you were to plug in any number for n, it will equal the same on both sides of the equation.

Maria solved the equation. 4 (3 x minus 8) minus 4 = 24. 12 x minus 32 minus 4 = 24. 12 x minus 36 = 24. 12 x = 60. x = 5. What

Mrac [35]

Answer:

1. Distributive property.

2. Combining like terms.

3. Addition property of equality.

4. Division property of equality.

Step-by-step explanation:

- The Distributive property states that:

$a(b+c)=ab+ac\\\\a(b-c)=ab-ab$

- The Addition property of equality states that:

$If\ a=b\ then\ a+c=b+c$

- The Subtraction property of equality states that:

$If\ a=b\ then\ a-c=b-c$

- The Multiplication property of equality states that:

$If\ a=b\ then\ a*c=b*c$

- The Division property of equality states that:

$If\ a=b\ then\ \frac{a}{c}=\frac{b}{c}$

Given the following equation:

$4(3x-8)-4=24$

We can identify that the methods Maria used to solve it and the order, are:

1. Distributive property:

$(4)(3x)-(4)(8)-4=24\\\\12x-32-4=24$

2. Combining (or adding) like terms:

$12x-36=24$

3. Addition property of equality, because she added 36 to both sides of the equation:

$12x-36+36=24+36\\\\12x=60$

4. Division property of equality, because she divided both sides of the equation by 12:

$\frac{12x}{12}=\frac{60}{12}\\\\x=5$

Laura’s fish tank has 17 liters of water in it. She plans to add 5 liter per minute until the tank has more than 72 liters. What

Hoochie [10]

T= number of minutes

Multiply 5 liters by number of minutes (t), then add the 17 liters already in the tank. This totals 72 liters or more.

17 + 5t ≥ 72
subtract 17 from both sides

5t ≥ 55
divide both sides by 5

t ≥ 11 minutes

ANSWER: Laura could add water for 11 minutes to be sure the tank has 72 liters or more.

Hope this helps! :)

you have 96 feet of fencing to enclose a rectangular pen for your dog. the pen should be three times long as it is wide. write a

swat32

Answer:

length = 36 ft; width = 12 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width be x.

The length is 3x.

The perimeter is the sum of two lengths and two widths, and it equals 96 ft.

3x + 3x + x + x = 96

8x = 96

x = 12

Width = x = 12 ft

Length = 3x = 3(12 ft) = 36 ft
