What is the reason for each step in the solution of the equation 12-5x+6x=4

1 answer:

6 0

Simplify :
12+-5x+6x=4
combine like terms :
-5x+6x=1x
12+1x=4
solving :
12+1x=4
solving for variable ‘x’
move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right, add ‘-12’ to each side of the equation
12+-12+1x=4+-12
combine like terms:
then divide each side
your answer : x=-8

mylen [45]

Answer:

The average speed is:

$\var{v}=75\: miles/h$

Step-by-step explanation:

The average speed equation is given by:

$\var{v}=\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}$

Were:

Δx is the displacement (225 miles)
Δt is the change in time (3 hours)

Then we have:

$\var{v}=\frac{225}{3}$

$\var{v}=75\: miles/h$

I hope it helps you!
