4a+6b=10 2a-4b=12 what does 12a =?

Mathematics

1/2(4a + 6b = 10)
2a + 3b = 5

2a + 3b = 5
-) 2a - 4b = 12
7b = -7
b = -1

Substitute:
2a - 4(-1) = 12
2a + 4 = 12
2a = 8
a = 4

12a = 12(4) = 48

This is a little longer way to do it, but I think it's easier to understand

What is the problem to h-16<24=
ELEN [110]
First, you have to add 16 to both sides because it's the opposite of subtracting.
h-16<24
  +16  +16
-16+16 will cancel each other out.
24+16=40
So, h<40
Or in other words, h is smaller than 40.

Hope it helps ^_^

Solve the inequality 16 &gt; -2u
Ksju [112]
To solve this inequality, you need to isolate the value of u. To do this, divide both sides by -2. When you do this, keep in mind that when you divide or multiply both sides by a negative in an inequality, you MUST flip the sign, so your answer would be -8 < u or u > -8.

At the end of a snow storm, Audrey saw there was a lot of snow on her front lawn.
Montano1993 [528]

An equation that represents the depth of snow on Audrey's lawn, in inches, t hours after the snow stopped falling is S = 10 - 2t

In this question, there was a depth of 10 inches of snow on the lawn when the storm ended and then it started a melting at a rate of 2 inches per hour.

We need to write an equation for S in terms of t, snow representing the depth of snow on Audrey's lawn, in inches, t hours after the snow stopped falling.

So, the equation would be,

S = 10 - 2t

Therefore,  an equation that represents the depth of snow on Audrey's lawn, in inches, t hours after the snow stopped falling is S = 10 - 2t

Each tape diagram represents I whole.
Monica [59]

Hi! From what I know, your answer should be 5n = 1.75.

This is because all 5 of those n's ultimately equal the large box of 1.75 on the top. Think of it as fractions. if we replaced 1.75 with 1, those n's would each be 1/5.
