Answer:

B. Subtract 12 from both sides

Step-by-step explanation:

You must be confused on why I say this. But hold tight, I have an explanation.

Because 12 is on the front side of the minus sign, it is actually positive. That means you must subtract it from both sides.

But what about 4x? Well, it is actually negative! Because the 12 is reduced to zero, the equation is technically 0 - 4x = 42. However, we just remove the 0 to make -4x = 42.

By the way, the fully solved equation is: x = -10.5 or x = -10 1/2

Hope this helps!

chubhunter [2.5K]
The number of Euros received against 600 dollars = 450
Then
For 1 dollar, the number of euros = (450/600) euros
                                                       = (45/60) euros
                                                       = ( 3/4) euros
                                                       = 0.75 euros
So the unit rate that describes the exchange rate is 0.75 euros per dollar. So the correct option among all the options given in the question is option "A". I hope the procedure for getting to the correct result is clear enough for you to understand. In future you can use this procedure for solving similar problems.
