Mathematics

Murljashka [212]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x = - \frac{7}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

20x + 12 = 4x - 16 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

16x + 12 = - 16 ( subtract 12 from both sides )

16x = - 28 ( divide both sides by 16 )

x = \frac{-28}{16} = - \frac{7}{4} [ = - 1.75 ]

mario collected 3g seashells. jasmine collected 10 more seashells that mario. write the number of seashells they collected toget
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

Total seashells = (6g + 10) seashells.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Mario collected 3g seashells.

Given that Jasmine collected 10 more seashells that mario. It means she collected (3g+10) seashells.

It says to write the number of seashells they collected together in terms of g.

Total seashells = Mario's seashells + Jasmine's seashells.

Total seashells = 3g + (3g+10).

Total seashells = 6g + 10.

Hence, Total seashells = (6g + 10) seashells.

Step-by-step explanation:

-0.5(3x + 5)   and   -1.5x + 2.5

-0.5(3x + 5)...distribute the -0.5 thru the parenthesis

-1.5x - 2.5

no, these are not equivalent.... one is -1.5x + 2.5 and the other is -1.5x - 2.5....not the same
