First, you would subtract 6 from both sides

-4x+6=-30
-6 -6
-4x=-36

Then divide both sides by -4 to get x by itself

-4x=-36
-4 -4
x=9

Hope this helps!

Hi!

Step-by-step explanation:

-4x+6=-30

First, you subtract by 6 from both sides of an equation.

-4x+6-6=-30-6

Then, you solve.

-4x=-36

You divide by -4 from both sides of an equation.

-4x/-4=-36/-4

Finally, you simplify equation to gave us the final answer.

-36/-4=-9

It change negative sign to positive sign.

Answer is x=9

Hope this helps!

Have a good day! :)

Which algebraic expression represents "one-third of the number s, plus t"?

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

A) s/3 +t

Step-by-step explanation:

To represent 1/3 of a number, we can simply divide this number by 3, meaning if s is the number, 1/3 of s would be s/3. Now to add t all we have to do is + t, making our answer s/3 + t

Solve simultaneously Y=x-2 Y^2=x

omeli [17]

$\left \{ {{y=x-2} \atop {\ y^2=x}} \right. \\ \\ \\
y=x-2 \\
y^2=(x-2)^2=x^2-4x+4 \\ \\ \\
y^2=x \\
x^2-4x+4=x \\
x^2-5x+4=0$

$a=1 \\ b=-5 \\ c=4 \\ \\ x=\frac{-(-5) \pm \sqrt{(-5)^2 - 4 \cdot 1 \cdot 4}}{2 \cdot 1}=\frac{5 \pm \sqrt{25 - 16}}{2}=\frac{5 \pm \sqrt{9}}{2}=\frac{5 \pm 3}{2} \\ \\
x=\frac{5+3}{2} \ \lor \ x=\frac{5-3}{2} \\ \\
x=\frac{8}{2} \ \lor \ x=\frac{2}{2} \\ \\
x=4 \ \lor \ x=1$

$y=4-2 \ \lor \ y=1-2 \\
y=2 \ \lor \ y=-1 \\ \\ \\
 \left \{ {{x=4} \atop {y=2}} \right. \ \lor \ \left \{ {{x=1} \atop {y=-1}} \right.$
