12(3-2x) = 84
do distributive multiplication:
12(3) + 12(-2x) = 84
36 - 24x = 84
Deduct 36 to both sides
36 - 36 - 24x = 84 - 36
-24x = 48
divide -24 to both sides
-24x / -24 = 48/-24
x = -2
To check:
12(3-2x) = 84
12(3-2(-2) = 84
12(3+4) = 84
12(7) = 84
84 = 84
Answer:
or
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
This is a vertical parabola open upward (because the leading coefficient is positive)
The vertex is a minimum
Convert to vertex form
Factor the leading coefficient
Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side.
Rewrite as perfect squares
----> equation in vertex form
or
The vertex is the point (0.25,10.5)

</span>Calculate 3 x 5, which is 15.Since 15 is two-digit, we carry the first digit 1 to the next column.
Calculate 5 x 5, which is 25. Now add the carry digit of 1, which is 26.Since 26 is two-digit, we carry the first digit 2 to the next column.
Bring down the carry digit of 2.
<span>Therefore, 53 x 5 = 265.</span>
Answer:
x = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 2x + 3x = 180
<u>6x</u> = <u>180</u>
6 6
x = 30
