Answer:
Pretend that x and y represents the 2 numbers that we need to find.
According to the information, we know that:
x + y = 21
6x = y
Replace y in the first equation with 6x (because they are equal to each other according to the second equation):
x + y = 21
x + 6x = 21
7x = 21
x = 21/7 = 3
Now have two ways to find y, both will give us the same result:
3 + y = 21 ⇔ y = 21 - 3 = 18
6 · 3 = y ⇔ y = 18
So the numbers that we need to find are 3 and 18.
There should only be one step necessary
(4m-1) / m = 4 - 1/m
First, let's subtract both sides by 4:
|2x - 3| = 13
We can get two different equations from this:
2x - 3 = 13
and
2x - 3 = -13
So:
2x = 16
2x = -10
x = 8, x = -5
The solution set is {8, -5}
Answer:
-8x - 10
Step-by-step explanation:
To use the distributive property, distribute what is outside the parenthesis to each term in the parenthesis. When you do this, you multiply each term by what's outside the parenthesis.
-2(4x) + (-2)(5)
= -8x - 10
hope this helps :)
