Assuming the question is 45x - 334x = 212
Then the answer is:
45x - 334x = 212
-289x = 212
x = -(212 / 289)
OR
x = -0.73
35+5t=amount in tank A after t minutes
100-8t=amount in tank B after t minutes
same amount
35+5t=100-8t
add 8t both sides
35+13t=100
minus 35 both sides
13t=65
divide by 13 both sides
t=5
5 minutes
Answer:
[See Below]
Step-by-step explanation:
✦ First split the equation in little pieces and solve them:
✧ 4 - 16 = -12
✧ 4 + 4² = 20 (4² = 16)
✦ Now divide them:
✧ -12 ÷ 20 = -0.6
So I'm guessing you're trying to simplify 4²... so it'd be 16 because none of the choices are the simplified version of the problem.
