4(5x - 2) = 72 What do I do

Mathematics
1 answer:
Pepsi [2]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

4(5x - 2) = 72

Do the distributive property

20x - 8 = 72

Then add 8 to both sides to get 20x alone

20x - 8 = 72

      + 8  + 8

20x = 80

Then divide both sides by 20 to get x

\frac{20x}{20} = \frac{80}{20}

x = 4

Nine fewer than half a number is five more than four times the number. Define a variable, write an equation, and solve to find t
nignag [31]
N = the number

0.5n - 9 = 4n + 5
(0.5n - 0.5n) - 9 = (4n - 0.5n) + 5
-9 = 3.5n + 5
(-9 - 5) = 3.5n + (5 - 5)
-14 = 3.5n
-14/3.5 = 3.5n/3.5
-4 = n

The number is -4.

Which graph shows a set of ordered pairs that represent a function?
Yuri [45]

Make XY tables for each option.

If any of the Tables have identical X numbers it is not a function.

The first option has two X's that re 2, so is not a function.

Second option has 2 x's that are 4's, so is not a function.

The third option has no repeating X values so is a function.

The fourth option has two -2's and two 0's so ids not a function.

The function is the third choice:

On a coordinate plane, solid circles appear at the following points: (negative 3, 2), (negative 2, 2), (0, 1), (1, 3), (2, negative 4), (4, negative 1).
