Okay so you need to start off by using the distributive property, meaning you are going to multiply -2 by both items within the parentheses. this gives you -2x + 10 = -14. from here you want to isolate x, so you’ll subtract both sides by 10 to move it to the other side. this gives you -2x=-24. then you’ll divide both sides by -2 to completely isolate x. this gives you x=12. does that make sense?
Answer:
z=3.3 repeating
Step-by-step explanation:
Move all terms that don't contain z to the right side and solve.
6 inches enlarged by 1.5 = 9 inches
9 inches enlarged by 1.5 = 13.5 inches
area = 9 × 13.5
= 121.5 square inches
Carats, known as ct, is a measure of weight used for gemstones.One carat is equal to 1/5 of a gram (200 milligrams). Stones are measured to the nearest hundredth of a carat. So, the equation would be as follows:
m = c x 200
where m is the mass in units of milligrams and c is the weight in units of carats.
Hope this helped. Have a nice day.
It is a percent decrease because the original is less than the final value and the answer is -24% decrease. Please give me brainless if right.
