You have to divide the total cost $12 by the 4 bars, so $12/4 bars = $3 per bar
Answer:
5 times
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
<u>x = -3</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
-5x + 9 = 24
move the nine to the other side
-5x = 15
divide
x = -3
Answer: x = -14/5
Step-by-step explanation: We shall begin by expanding the brackets for both sides of the equation
-2/3 (x + 2) = 1/6 (x + 6)
(-2x/3) -4/3 = (x/6) + 1
By collecting like terms we now have
(-2x/3) - (x/6) = 1 + 4/3
(-4x - x)/6 = 7/3
-5x/6 = 7/3
By cross multiplication we now have
-5x (3) = 7 (6)
-15x = 42
x = -(42/15) {simplify further by dividing the RHS by 3}
x = -14/5
Therefore x equals, minus fourteen over five (-14/5)
Remember
if ab=0, then assume that a and b equal 0
factor out common term
comon term in 6x^2 and 15x is 3x
3x(2x)+3x(5)=0
3x(2x+5)=0
set each to zero
3x=0
x=0
2x+5=0
2x=-5
x=-5/2
x=-5/2 and 0
