Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−4(x+3)=8

(−4)(x)+(−4)(3)=8(Distribute)

−4x+−12=8

−4x−12=8

Step 2: Add 12 to both sides.

−4x−12+12=8+12

−4x=20

Step 3: Divide both sides by -4.

−4x

Jackrabbits are capable of reaching speeds up to 40 miles per hour. How fast is this in feet per second? (Round to the nearest w
Sonja [21]
To solve this problem, we are going to use a scientific/mathematics strategy called Dimensional Analysis.

40 miles / 1 hour * 5280 feet / 1 mile = 211200 feet / 1 hour

211200 feet / 1 hour * 1 hour / 60 minutes = 3520 feet/ 1 minute

3520 feet / 1 minute * 1 minute / 60 seconds = approximately 59 feet / 1 second


Jackrabbits travel approximately 59 feet per second, when rounded to the nearest whole number.

Answer:

<h3>(-4, 1)</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

-x-3=y, therefore x = -y-3

-3x - 8y = 4

Find the value of y

Substitute the x in -3x - 8y = 4 with -y-3

We get

-3·(-y-3) - 8y = 4

3y + 9 - 8y = 4

-5y = 4-9

-5y = -5

<h3>y = 1</h3>

_______________

Find the value of x

x = -y-3

x = -1-3

<h3>x = -4</h3>

_______________

Answer (x, y) =

<h3>(-4, 1)</h3>

the table shows the number of minutes Tim has for lunch and study hall. he calculates that these two periods account for 18% of
EleoNora [17]

Tim spends 500 minutes at the school.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Time for lunch = 45 minutes

Time for study hall = 45 minutes

Total = 45+45 = 90 minutes

This represents 18% of the total minutes Tim spend at school.

Let,

x be the total minutes Tim spend at school.

18% of x = 90 minutes

\frac{18}{100}x=90\\\\0.18x=90

Dividing both sides by 0.18

\frac{0.18x}{0.18}=\frac{90}{0.18}\\x=500

Tim spends 500 minutes at the school.
