By using the Distributive Property, you would multiply 3 into the parenthesis (3 · x and 3 · -4)
3(x - 4) = 24
3x - 12 = 24
Then, you would solve like any normal one-step equation.
3x - 12 = 24
+12 +12
__________
3x 36
__ = __
3 3
x = 12, which is your final solution.

Niklas takes a dose of 25 micrograms of a certain supplement each day. The supplement has a half life of 4 hours, meaning that 1/64 of the supplement remains in the body after each day. How much of the supplement is in Niklas's body immediately after the 12th dose? Round your final answer to the nearest hundredth.
Answer:
The amount of the supplement in Niklas body immediately after the 12th dose is 430 micrograms to the nearest hundreth
Step-by-step explanation:
Half life is the time required for an element to decay into half of its initial size.
Given that :
The supplement has a half life of 4 hours, this implies that it decay to half of its size every 4 hours.
∴ there are 6 stages of division in a day.
i.e

The amount of the supplement in Niklas body after the first dose (first day) can be calculated as:
=
× 25
= 0.390625 micrograms
It is said that he used the supplement daily for 12 days (12th dose),
As such ; we can estimate the amount of the supplement that is in his body immediately after the 12th dose; which is calculated as:
amount in his body per day × number of period for complete decay
= 0.390625 × 11
= 4.296875
≅4.30 micrograms
= 430 micrograms to the nearest hundreth
The amount of the supplement in Niklas body immediately after the 12th dose is 430 micrograms to the nearest hundreth
1/2 / 3/4
= 1/2 x 4/3
= 4/6
= 2/3

Answer:
144 = each interior angle
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the interior angles of a regular polygon is
(n – 2)180
If it is regular with n sides, divide by n to find each interior angle
(n – 2)180
------------------- = each interior angle
n
We know that there are 10 sides so n = 10
(10 – 2)180
------------------- = each interior angle
10
(8)180
------------------- = each interior angle
10
144 = each interior angle
The volume of a rectangular prism is the product of its dimensions.
(6 cm)*(3.9 cm)*(13.2 cm) ≈ 308.9 cm³
