So you would distribute what's in the parenthesis and end up with 4x-2x-6=x+1, then you combine like terms and end up with 2x-6=x+1, now you can add 6 to both sides or subtract 1 both sides (basically anything goes for this step just make sure you apply the same thing on both sides) so I'll add 6 and continue just to show you... then you end up with 2x=x+7 then you subtract 1x on both sides to get x=7. sorry it's a lot hopefully you get it know!

First distribute
4x-2x-6=x+1
Then combine like terms
2x-6=x+1
Subtract one from both sides
2x-7=x
Subtract the 2x
-7=-x
Divide both side by negative 1
7=x

A biologist uses a box-shaped fish trap that measures 1/4meter by 2/3meter by 3/5meter. What is the volume of the trap in the cu

Travka [436]

To find the volume of a box-shaped fish trap, we have to multiply the three dimensions of it:

(1/4 m)* (2/3 m)* (3/5 m)

= (1*2*3)/ (4*3*5) m^(3)

= 6/ 60 m^(3)

= 1/10 m^(3)

= 0.1 m^(3)

The volume of the box-shaped fish trap is 0.1 m^(3).

Hope this is helpful~

training for a cycle race in the first week if I was 195 miles in the second we can manage is 243 Miles what is the percentage i

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

24.61%

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance covered in first week = 195 miles

The distance covered in the second week = 243 miles

We need to find the percentage increase in distance. It can be calculated as follows :

$\%=\dfrac{243-195}{195}\times 100\\\\=24.61\%$

So, the increase in distance is equal to 24.61%.

Estimate the square root to the nearest integer.

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:
3
Explanation:
3^2 is equal to 9, and 4^2 is equal to 16, so sqrt(10) must be in between 9 and 16. Since 10 is closer to 9 than to 16, sqrt(10) is closer to 3 than 4, which means that to the nearest integer sqrt(10)=3

Find the value of cos x° + sin yº

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

1.84

Step-by-step explanation:

The given arc is a part of a unit circle centered at origin.

The x-coordinate on the unit circle represent the cosine value and y-coordinate on the unit circle represent sine value.

So, for angle equal to $x$ °, the x coordinate represents $cos (x)$ °.
