Answer:

Option D) x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

(4-2)(x-2) = 4x - 8

Distribute and simplify 4-2

2(x-2) = 4x - 8

2x-4 = 4x -8

Subtract 2x on both sides and add 8 on both sies

4x - 8 = 2x-4

2x= 4

Divide 2 on both sides

x = 2

Joe ate twice as many pieces of Halloween candy as Ed. Together they ate 48 pieces.
gulaghasi [49]

Answer: 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of candy Ed took be denoted as "x"

Since Joe ate twice the amount of candy Ed ate, then the number of candies joe ate will be denoted as "2x"

Since all together they ate a total of 48 candies, then the sum of the candies eaten by Joe and Ed is what gives a total of 48

This means:

2x + x = 48

3x = 48

X = 16.

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

b

Step-by-step explanation:

First, converting R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100 = 6.5%/100 = 0.065 per year,

then, solving our equation

I = 95000 × 0.065 × 20 = 123500

I = $ 123,500.00

The simple interest accumulated

on a principal of $ 95,000.00

at a rate of 6.5% per year

for 20 years is $ 123,500.00.

To find the slope of the expression:

f(x)=y=3x-1

We need to remember that this is the Slope-intercept Form of the line equation:

y=mx+b

Where

m = slope

b is the y-intercept.

Therefore, the slope of the line equation above is m = 3.
