Answer:-7/4

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x-2)=6x+2-2(-2x-4)

Open brackets

2x-4=6x+2+4x+8

Collect like terms

-4-2-8=6x+4x-2x

-14=8x

Divide both sides by 8

-14/8=8x/8

-7/4=x

x=-7/4

hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

1200 students at the school

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the total number of students at the school

50% ride the bus

600 students ride the bus

x*50% = 600

Changing to decimal form

.50x = 600

Divide each side by .5

.50x/.5 = 600/.5

x =1200

1200 students at the school

Please help me with NUMBER 7 !! Thank you so much! 20 points!! :))
mart [117]

Answer:

x<-3 or x>-1

Step by step explanation:

Start with -5x>15. To get x by itself, we have to divide each side by -5. When we do that we get x<-3. (Don't forget to flip the sign when dealing with negative  · and ÷.) Now answer the second equation. x-5>-6 To get x by itself, add 5 to both sides to get x>-1. Now we have x<3 or x>-1.
