Pls help me solve:-4(x-1)+6x=34

Mathematics
1 answer:
Rufina [12.5K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

-4(x-1) + 6x = 34   --- distribute the -4 by multiplying

-4x + 4 + 6x = 34

-4x + 6x + 4 = 34 --- rewrite/group like terms and combine

2x + 4 = 34 --- now you need to isolate the variable x

2x - 4 = 34 - 4  --- subtract 4 from each side

2x = 30 --- divide each side by 2 (inverse operation of multiplication)

x = 15

Then to check, plug in 15 for x:

-4(15-1) + 6x = 34

-60 + 4 + 6x = 34

-56 + 6x = 34

-56 + 56 + 6x = 34 + 56

6x = 90 ---divide each side by 6 (inverse op of multiplication)

x = 15

In the triangle below, what is the measure of A?<br> ОА. 180°<br> Ос. 30°<br> ор. 90°
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

60°

Step-by-step explanation:

Total angle measurement for a triangle is 180°

Equilateral triangle measures 60 on all angles. (60 + 60 + 60 = 180°)

This triangle is equilateral so it's angle is 60°.

Why is it equilateral? Because all sides of the triangle are equal (10 on all sides).

Hope this helps

Solve the following problem. Give the equation using x as the​ variable, and give the answer.
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

A. 3x + (x+8) = -22 - 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number equal x.

Set up the first half of the equation.

The sum of three times the number and 8 more than the number can be written as:

3x + (x+8)

Sum means that you add the components.

Set up the second half of the equation.

The difference between -22 and twice the number can be written as:

-22 - 2x

Difference means subtraction, and because -22 is written first, that is the number that you subtract <em>from</em>.

If you set the halves of the equation equal, you get:

3x + (x+8) = -22 - 2x

Therefore, the answer is A.
