-2(x - 3) = 5(2x + 3)

-2x + 6 = 10x + 15

6 = 10x + 15 + 2

6 = 12x + 15

6 - 15 = 12x

-9 = 12x

-9/12 = x

-3/4 = x or in decimal form; -0.75

hope this helps, God bless!

Ok so multiply the numbers out to get -2x+6=10x+15 Then add 2x to both sides getting you 12x+15=6. Then subtract 15 from both sides, leaving you with -9=12x. Then divide 12 from both sides, meaning x=-3/4

18

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this we must divide 45 by 20 which gives the answer of 2.25. As we know this we now must multiply that by 8 resulting in to 18.

Therefore the answer is 18

Which expression is equal to 5^4 x 5^8 ? <br><br> A: 5^12<br> B: 5^4<br> C: 5^2<br> D: 5^−4

galben [10]

Something to remember is how to multiply terms with same bases, but different exponents:

$a^b \cdot a^c = a^{(b+c)}$

Essentially, we add the exponents.

Using the information above, we can find our answer:

$5^4 \cdot 5^8 = 5^{(4+8)} = \boxed{5^{12}}$

Our answer is $\boxed{5^{12}}$ , or A.
