Simplify.

12u - 8u = 4u

4u = -20

isolate the u, divide 4 from both sides

4u/4 = -20/4

u = -20/4

u = -5

u = -5 is your answer

hope this helps

BC = 6x + 6, AB = 8 +9, and AC = 141. Find BC

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer: 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Since AB and BC creates AC, we can add them together to find x, then use that to find the value of BC.

8x+9+6x+6=141 [combine like terms]

14x+15=141 [subtract both sides by 15]

14x=126 [divide both sides by 14]

x=9

Now that we have found the value of x, we can plug that into BC.

6(9)+6 [multiply]

54+6 [add]

Now, we know the length of BC is 60.

Hello there >3 i would like explanation for this :)

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t and u represent the tens and units digits, respectively.

t = u + 2 . . . . the tens digit exceeds the units digit by 2

t + 2u = 17 . . . . the sum of the tens digit and twice the units digit is 17

Substituting for t in the second equation, we get ...

(u +2) +2u = 17

3u = 15 . . . . . . . . subtract 2

u = 5 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3

t = u+2 = 7

The number is 75.

_____

Check

7 exceeds 5 by 2. 7 + twice 5 = 7 + 10 = 17.
