-2(x - 8) + 4x = -12

Mathematics
1 answer:
Deffense [45]3 years ago

Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

4 x - 2 (x - 8) = -12

-2 (x - 8) = 16 - 2 x:

4 x + 16 - 2 x = -12

4 x - 2 x = 2 x:

2 x + 16 = -12

Subtract 16 from both sides:

2 x + (16 - 16) = -16 - 12

16 - 16 = 0:

2 x = -16 - 12

-16 - 12 = -28:

2 x = -28

Divide both sides of 2 x = -28 by 2:

(2 x)/2 = (-28)/2

2/2 = 1:

x = (-28)/2

The gcd of -28 and 2 is 2, so (-28)/2 = (2 (-14))/(2×1) = 2/2×-14 = -14:

Answer:  x = -14

What is the width of a rectangle prism with the length of 13 feet volume of 11,232 ft.³ and height of 36
vekshin1
To get the volume of a rectangular prism, you multiply the base times the height by the width, so to get the width you would divide 11,232 by 13 which is 864, then you divide that by 36 to get 24, so the width would be 24.

<h3>Answer:  9.4 feet</h3>

Work Shown:

sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse

sin(22) = x/25

x = 25*sin(22)

x = 9.3651648353978

x = 9.4

Your calculator needs to be in degree mode. One way to check is to compute sin(30) and you should get 0.5 or 1/2.
