Answer:
Simplifying
x = -25
Step-by-step explanation:
Reorder the terms:
10x + -6(5 + 2x) = 20
10x + (5 * -6 + 2x * -6) = 20
10x + (-30 + -12x) = 20
Reorder the terms:
-30 + 10x + -12x = 20
Combine like terms: 10x + -12x = -2x
-30 + -2x = 20
Solving
-30 + -2x = 20
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '30' to each side of the equation.
-30 + 30 + -2x = 20 + 30
Combine like terms: -30 + 30 = 0
0 + -2x = 20 + 30
-2x = 20 + 30
Combine like terms: 20 + 30 = 50
-2x = 50
Divide each side by '-2'.
x = -25
By using the information you have, you can use make a proportion to solve this.
You burn 4 logs in 2 hours or 4/2. You are comparing this to your unknown number, x, over 8 hours. So it looks like this 4/2 = x/8. You read it as four logs in two hours is x logs in eight hours. To solve you cross multiply. You do 2 times x and 4 times eight. That would be 2x= 32. Your goal is getting x alone, so divide each side by 2. Your answer is x= 16 logs in eight hours. You can solve this different and maybe easier ways but this is the best way if you want to get used to going this in algebra. Hope that helps! :)
Answer:
Figure 2 and figure 4
Yes I agree with Tyler
A
C
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Figures 2 and 4 are not slanted which changes the original form, unlike the others.
I agree with Tyler because the size is not only smaller but it says that it was scaled by 2 more centimeters than the original figure.
I believe its the others because the other one is scaled upwards unlike the rest.
Answer:
1.03
Step-by-step explanation:
The increase is 3% above the original 100%, thus
multiplier = 100 + 3 = 103% =
= 1.03
Well 85% of 25 is 21.25. So the closest ones would be 20 or 22. Well let's check out the difference's. 21.25-20= 1.25.....22-21.25=.75. well clearly .75 is smaller than 1.25 so your answer would be 22. 85% of 25 is closest to 22.
