-(2x+4)= 18

Divide -

2x+4= -18

Subtract 4

2x= -22

Divide 2

x= -11

-(2(-11)+4)= 18

18= 18

Answer:

x=-11

Step-by-step explanation:

For the given equation:

                                   -(2x + 4) = 18

Opening the brackets of L.H.S will change sign inside the bracket as the negative sign is outside the bracket

                                     -2x-4=18

Now, making the coefficients of 'x' to one side, to find the value of 'x'

                                          -2x=18+4\\x=22/-2\\x=-11

So, for the given equation the value of x is -11.

PLEASE HELP ME WITH BOTH OF THESE PROBLEMS THIS IS DUE SOON PLEASE HELP ME
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4.

a)

P = 2width + 2length

8x = 2x + 2 length; 8x-2x = 2 length; 6x=2 length

length = 3x

b)

sides= 1/4 of 3x = 3x/4

perimeter of square = 4* side = 4*3x/4 = 3x

c)

x= 4

P rectangle =8x= 8*4= 32

P square = 3x = 3*4 = 12

32-12 = 20 cm greater is the P rectangle than P of square

d)

A rectangle = 2x*x = 2*4*4 = 32

A square =(3x/4)² = (3*4/4)² = 9

32-9 = 23 cm² greater is the A rectangle than A of square

5.

4Comic+1 Nonfiction

4comic = 8y so 1 comic = 2y

1 nonfiction = (3+7y)+ 2y

a)

1 nonfiction = 7y+2y+3 = 9y+3

b)

total= 8y+9y+3 = 17y+3

if y=4

total = 17*4 +3  = $71

The simplest method to find a rational number between two rational numbers x and y is to divide their sum by 2.

What is the initial value in the function 2x + 3y = 6?
maw [93]
<h2>Explanation:</h2><h2></h2>

The initial value of this function is the y-intercept. We know that the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line is given by:

y=mx+b \\ \\ \\ Where: \\ \\ \\ m:slope \\ \\ b:y-intercept

Writing our equation in slope intercept form:

2x + 3y = 6 \\ \\ \\ \text{Subtract 2x from both sides}: \\ \\ 2x -2x+ 3y = 6-2x \\ \\ 3y=6-2x \\ \\ \\ \text{Divide both sides by 3}: \\ \\ y=\frac{6-2x}{3} \\ \\ y=-\frac{2x}{3}+2

So the initial value is:

b=3
