Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x+1)=10

Distributive properties

a*(b+c)=(a*b)+(a*c)

Using distributive properties

Then

2*(x+1)=(2*x)+(2*1)

2*(x+1)=2x+2

Now, commutative properties

a*b=b*a

Addition is cumulative

a+(-b)=(-b)+a

Therefore applying to 2x+2

2x+2+(-2)=2x+(-2)+2

Then, applying to the equation

2x+2+(-2)=10+(-2), +×-=-

2x+2 -2=10-2

2x=8

Using division properties

ax=b

If a is none zero

Then ax/a=b/a

Therefore x=b/a

Applying that to 2x=8

2x=8. Divide both side by 2 which is none zero

2x/2= 8/2

x=4

Answer:

2(x + 1) = 10

2x + 2 = 10

2x +2 -2 = 10 - 2

2x = 10(Step 3)

2x/2 = 8/2

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation:

2(x + 1) = 10

Open the bracket by multiplying 2 by (x + 1) - Distributive property

2x + 2 = 10;

Subtract 2 from both sides.

2x + 2 - 2 = 10 - 2( Subtraction property of equality)

2x = 8(Step 3 justified).

Divide both sides by 2

2x/2 = 8/2 - Division property of equality.

Therefore,

x = 4. (Solved)

How many solutions does the equation −4y + 4y + 2 = 2 have?
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

−4y+4y+2=2

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−4y+4y+2=2

(−4y+4y)+(2)=2(Combine Like Terms)

2=2

2=2

Step 2: Subtract 2 from both sides.

2−2=2−2

0=0

Answer:

All real numbers are solutions.

What is the fraction 18/24 reduced to its lowest terms?
WINSTONCH [101]
<em>First, find the greatest common factor (GCF) of the numerator and denominator.</em>

<u>Factors of 18</u>: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18
<u>Factors of 24</u>: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24
<u>Common Factors</u>: 1, 2, 3, 6
<u>GCF</u>: 6

<em>Now, divide the numerator by 6 and the denominator by 6.</em>

18 ÷ 6 = 3
24 ÷ 6 = 4

<em>Set these as your new numerator and denominator.</em>

\frac{3}{4}

The answer is (b).
