First, we need to get the variable by it self.
-2x+6=20
-6=-6
-2x=14
Next, since the operation is multiplication, we need to divided both sides by -2.
X=-7

siniylev [52]

Answer:

$7.65

Step-by-step explanation:

step one:

The total bill was $45.

michelle pays 35% of the total bill

= 35/100*45

=0.35*45

=$15.75

lori pays 48% of the bill

= 48/100*45

=0.48*45

=$21.6

Therefore patti will pay

Pablo wants to build a rectangular pen for the pig he is raising in his agriculture class. Pablo only has 36 feet of fencing. Wh

Ratling [72]

Answer:

Area of the rectangular pen is: $18 \,x-x^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to specify that the perimeter of the rectangular area of side x adds to the amount of fence Pablo has (36 feet). Recall as well that the opposite sides of a rectangle are equal, so if there is a side of length x, there must be another one of this size as well (a total of 2 x in the perimeter),let's assume that the perpendicular sides to x are of length y, then:

Perimeter= 2 x + 2 y = 36

so, 2 (x+y) = 36 then (x+y) = 18

and therefore the side y should be:

y = 18 - x

Now we can write the formula for representing the area of the rectangle (product of both quantities: x * y

$Area=x\,*\,y = x\,(18-x) =18 \,x-x^2$
