Step-by-step explanation:
remember, when you multiply 2 expressions, you need to multiply every term of one expression with every term of the other expression and then add the results up (while considering their individual signs, of course).
1)
2(s + 8) = -(4s + 2)
2×s + 2×8 = -4s + -2
2s + 16 = -4s - 2
6s + 16 = -2
6s = -18
s = -3
2)
-(8 - 7b) = 6(2 + b)
-8 - -7b = 6×2 + 6×b
-8 + 7b = 12 + 6b
-8 + b = 12
b = 20
3)
6(4x - 11) = 9 - x
6×4x - 6×11 = 9 - x
24x - 66 = 9 - x
25x - 66 = 9
25x = 75
x = 3
4)
-5(4 - x) = 2(-x - 3)
-5×4 - -5×x = 2×-x - 2×3
-20 + 5x = -2x - 6
-20 + 7x = -6
7x = 14
x = 2
5)
-6(y - 1) = 4(9 + y)
-6×y - -6×1 = 4×9 + 4×y
-6y + 6 = 36 + 4y
-10y + 6 = 36
-10y = 30
y = -3
6)
7(2s + 6) = 5(s - 6)
7×2s + 7×6 = 5×s - 5×6
14s + 42 = 5s - 30
9s + 42 = -30
9s = -72
s = -8
7)
z + 4 = 8(-z + 5)
z + 4 = 8×-z + 8×5
z + 4 = -8z + 40
9z + 4 = 40
9z = 36
z = 4
8)
-2(3 + 5x) + 3(1 - x) = 10
-2×3 + -2×5x + 3×1 - 3×x = 10
-6 - 10x + 3 - 3x = 10
-3 - 13x = 10
-13x = 13
x = -1
The answer is 3 I dont get how but thats what the mathcounts site says.
Round 6.54 to the nearest minute. Ok. Now it makes sense.
To the nearest minute means to the nearest ones.
So, 6.54 becomes 7.
Answer: 7 minutes.
