Answer: Use a bar or a number line. Try my example with -6.
Step-by-step explanation: Example: x + 2 > 12
Subtract 2 from both sides:
x + 2 − 2 > 12 − 2
Simplify:
x > 10
Solved^
If the original distance is x, then twice the original distance is 2x.
6 less than something means minus six, or -6.
So the answer would be A) 2x-6
The correct answer is A. Longing I know because I just finished the quiz.
Answer:
He sold 100 rackets for $ 20
Step-by-step explanation:
To start, we have to make 2 equations, one that represents the number of rackets and the other the money
x + y = 500
x * 20 + y * 45 = 20000
we clear x in the first equation
x + y = 500
x = 500 - y
we replace x in the second equation with (500 - y)
x * 20 + y * 45 = 20000
(500 - y) * 20 + y * 45 = 20000
10000 - 20y + 45y = 20000
-20y + 45y = 20000 - 10000
25y = 10000
y = 10000/25
y = 400
we replace x in the first equation with the value obtained
x = 500 - y
x = 500 - 400
x = 100
He sold 100 rackets for $ 20
