-4(3-2x)+2x=2x-8
First Distribute your -4 to get -12+8x+2x=2x-8
Then combine like terms to get -12+10x=2x-8
Add 8 over to the -12 to get -4+10x=2x
Subtract 10x from 2x to get -4=-8x
Finally, divide -4 by -8x to get x=1/2.
The correct answer is Letter C.

-4(3-2x)+2x=2x-8
distribute -4 through (3-2x)= -12+8x
-12+8x+2x=2x-8
Cancel out 2x by subtracting it from both sides.
-12+8x=-8
Add 12 to both sides in order to get the -8x alone,
8x=4
Divide both sides by 8,
you will get 1/2 and that is C).

azamat

Complete question is;

Roger is building a storage shed with wood blocks that are in the shape of cubic prisms. Can he build a shed that is twice as high as it is wide?

A. Yes. For every block of width, he could build two blocks high.

B. Yes. He could use half as many blocks for the height as the width.

C. There is no way to determine if he can do this.

D. No, it is not possible to do this

Answer:

A. Yes. For every block of width, he could build two blocks high.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the wood blocks are in the shape of cubic prisms.

Now, cube shapes means that all sides are equal.

Now, if he divides the cube into 2, he can use one have to add to the top to make the height double since the sides are equal.

Thus, the height will now be twice a side of the cubic prism.

Thus, he can build a shed twice as high as its width.

-5.4v+0.3v= -5.1v

Because both numbers have a common variable of 'v,' they can be combined.
