The equation given in the question is
2s + s + 12 = 132
3s + 12 = 132
3s = 132 - 12
3s = 120
s = 120/3
= 40
From the above deduction we can see that the value of the unknown variable comes out to be exactly 40. This is possible because there is a single unknown variable and a single equation to get the value of the variable from. So the correct option among all the options given in the question is option "D".
Answer:
-3x+8
Step-by-step explanation:
−2x−x+8
Add the -2x to the -x and you get -3x.
-3x + 8 is the answer if you wrote your equation correctly...
12% of 120 is 14.4
Change the percentage into a decimal by dividing over 100:
12 / 100 = 0.12
Multiply:
0.12 × 120 = 14.4
