3x+ 4 = 20

First you SUBTRACT 4 from both sides . Since these are inequalities we do reverse PEMDAS (Parentheses , Exponents , Multiply , Divide , Add ,Subtract). Then you will have an equivalent equation of

3x=16

Now we have to isolate X . So we divide 3 by both sides . Which will get 5.3333...

Therefore , The answer will be

The first step in solving the equation is to<u> SUBTRACT </u> from each side . This is an example of the <u>subtraction</u> property of <u>EQUALITY</u>

Answer:

Subtract 4 ,

Subtraction property of equality

Step-by-step explanation:

When we solve a one variable equation then we isolate the variable in the left side,

Here, the given equation,

3x + 4 = 20,

For isolating x on left side first we need to remove constant term in the left side,

For this we need to subtract 4 from each side,

That is, 3x = 20 - 4

∵ Subtraction property of equality states that an equation does not change when we subtract same number from each side of the equation.

i.e. a = b ⇒ a - c = b - c, Where, a, b and c are real numbers.

A cargo helicopter delivers only 100100100-pound packages and 120120120-pound packages. For each delivery trip, the helicopter m
Romashka [77]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Weight of package delivered = 100 - 120 pounds

Number of packages carried per trip is atleast 10 = ≥ 10

Total weight of packages must be at most 1,100 ≤1,100

The maximum number of 120 pound packages the helicopter can carry:

Maximum capacity = 1100 pounds

Number of packages ≥ 10

Let number of 110 packages carried = x

Number of 120 packages carried = y

x + y ≥ 10 - - (1)

100x + 120y ≤ 1100 - - - (2)

From (1): x ≥ 10 - y

100(10 - y) + 120y ≤ 1100

1000 - 100y + 120y ≤ 1100

1000 + 20y ≤ 1100

20y ≤ 1100 - 1000

20y ≤ 100

y = 5

y = number of 120 pound packages carried

y = 5
