4 0

Answer: x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

8(3-2x) + 4(3x - 2) = -16

expanding the equation , we have

24 - 16x +12x - 8 = -16

16 - 4x = -16

collecting the like terms

4x = 32

x = 32/4

x = 8

Answer:

Option(D)

Step-by-step explanation:

Diameter of the Sun (S) = 1.4 × 10⁶ km

Diameter of a planet mars (M) = 7000 km

                                            ≈ 7.0 × 10³ km

Ratio of the diameter of the Sun to the diameter of Mars

= \frac{S}{M}

= \frac{1.4\times 10^{6}}{7.0\times 10^{3}}

= 0.2\times 10^{6-3}

= 0.2\times 10^3

= 2\times 10^2

Option (D) will be the correct option.

PLEASE HELP!!! GIVE ME EVERY STEP TO HOW YOU GOT YOUR ANSWERS

1) "Subtract -7a+1 from 7+a" means -7a+1 is getting taken away from 7+a, so this can be mathematically expressed as:

Starting expression: (7+a)-(-7a+1)

Distributive property with negatives: 7+a+7a-1

Combine like terms: 6+8a

So the answer for the first one is 6+8a

2) "Subtract -4v-2 from -2-5v" means -4v-2 is getting taken away from -2-5v, so this can be mathematically expressed as:

Starting expression: (-2-5v)-(-4v-2)

Distributive property with negatives: -2-5v+4v+2

Combine like terms: -v

So the answer for the second one is -v

Hope these explanations are clear.
