3(2x - 3) = 4x + 1 Help

Mathematics

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

You first have to distribute. So multiply the 3 with whats inside the parenthesis. So 3 times 2x is 6x. And 3 times -3 is -9. That means that so far you have 6x-9. Now on the other side you have 4x+1. So you move the 9 over to the other side by doing the opposite of it. Meaning +9. So you add 9 to 1 giving you 10. Now you have, 6x=4x+10. Just subtract 4x from 6x, which gives you 2x. Lastly, you divide the 10 by 2x because division is the opposite of multiplication

3(2x - 3) = 4x + 1

multiply the bracket by 3

(3)(2x)=6x

(3)(-3)=-9

6x-9=4x+1

move +4x to the other side

sign changes from +4x to -4x

6x-4x-9=4x-4x+1

6x-4x=2x ( combine like terms)

2x-9=1

move -9 to the other side

2x-9+9=1+9

2x=1+9

2x=10/2

divide both sides by 2 to get x by itself

2x/2=10/2

cross out 2 and 2, divide by 2

then becomes 1*1*x=x

divide by 2 for 10/2

10/2=5

2/2=1

5*1=5

Answer:

x=5

A bottle contains 20 blue bags and 15 red bags. If two bags are picked at random one after the other with replacement, what is t
babymother [125]

Answer:

<h2> 12÷49</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of bags in the bottle = 20 + 15 = 35

Then

the probability that the first bag is blue = 20/35

If we replace the first bag :

the probability that the second (picked) bag is blue = 15/35

Conclusion:

If two bags are picked at random one after the other with replacement

Then

the probability that the first bag is blue and then red is :

(20÷35)×(15÷35)

= (4÷7)×(3÷7)

= 12÷49

= 0.244897959184

Answer all questions, your combing like terms. Show ALL of you work! Thank you!!
Elanso [62]

Answer:

1. -12x - 9y - 6

2. -12x + 36

3. -240

4. -2

5. x = -57

6. x = -6

7. x = 48

8. x = 20

9. x = -288

10. n = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

-5x - 13 + 3y - 7x - 12y + 7

-12x - 13 + 3y - 12y +  7

-12x - 6 + 3y - 12y

-12x - 6 - 9y

-12x - 9y - 6

2.

-3(4x - 12)

-3(4x) + (-3)(-12)

-12x + 36

3.

6x - 282

6(7) - 282

42 - 282

-240

4.

6x + 2(y + x)

6(-2) + 2(7 + (-2))

-12 + 2(7 - 2)

-12 + 2(5)

-12 + 10

-2

5.

x - 23 = -80

 + 23    +23

x = -57  

6.

12x = -72

/12     /12

x = -6

7.

x/4 = 12

* 4    * 4

x = 48

8.

3x + 12 = 72

    -  12  - 12

3x = 60

/3     /3

x = 20

9.

x/4 - 8 = -80

     + 8    + 8

x/4 = -72

* 4    * 4

x = -288

10.

-4(1 - 5n) - 8n = 92

-4 + (-4)(-5n) - 8n = 92

-4 + 20n - 8n = 92

-4 + 12n = 92

12n - 4 = 92

     + 4    + 4

12n = 96

/12     /12

n = 8
