To solve for x, you need to isolate/get the variable "x" by itself in the equation:

16x - 3(4x + 5) = 2x + 9          Distribute -3 into (4x + 5)

16x + (-3)4x + (-3)5 = 2x + 9

16x - 12x - 15 = 2x + 9         Combine like terms (terms that have the same variable and power/exponent), which are 16x - 12x, as they have the same variable "x" and a power/exponent of 1.

4x - 15 = 2x + 9        Subtract 2x on both sides

4x - 2x - 15 = 2x - 2x + 9

2x - 15 = 9     Add 15 on both sides

2x - 15 + 15 = 9 + 15

2x = 24          Divide 2 on both sides to get "x" by itself

\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{24}{2}

x = 12

Nola purchased 2.5 pounds of cheese for 10. $50 her mother purchased 3 pounds of the same cheese for $12.60 the cost of the chee
Delvig [45]
The answer is 5.2 because if you do 12.60 - 10 it’s 2.6 so you add another 2.6 because it’s 2.6 for a half a pound so if you add the two half of pounds it will add up to one pound so it will be 2.6 + 2.6= 5.2 so basically 5.20$

If Kansas City is 108 miles away how many gallons of gas I needed to get there and then home
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

Well here's the issue...

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have no idea what car you'll be using for the experiment, I can't tell you how many times you will have to fill er' up either. let's say you have a fuel efficient car like 27 mpg. that's highway and city combined. (34/25) And the trip is 216 miles round trip. And let's say you used 0 gallons while you were there. You would need to fill up exactly 8 times to get there and back. That's going off of 27 miles per gallon.

Hope this helps!!
