Solve for <br> 3x + 12= -12

oee [108]

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

First, subtract 12 from both sides:

3x + 12 (-12) = -12 (-12)

3x = -12 - 12

3x = -24

Next, divide 3 from both sides:

(3x)/3 = (-24)/3

x = -24/3

x = -8

x = -8 is your answer.

Robert's dog is 4 years older than Karen's cat. In 3 years, the sum of the ages of Robert's dog and Karen's cat will be 13. How

mylen [45]

Answer:

5.5 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let D represent present age of Robert's dog and C represent present age of Karen's cat.

We have been given that Robert's dog is 4 years older than Karen's cat. We can represent this information in an equation as:

$D=C+4...(1)$

We are also told that in 3 years, the sum of the ages of Robert's dog and Karen's cat will be 13. After 3 years age of dog and cat would be $D+3$ and $C+3$ respectively.

We can represent this information in an equation as:

$D+3+C+3=13...(2)$

From equation (1), we will get:

$C=D-4$

Upon substituting this value in equation (2), we will get:

$D+3+D-4+3=13$

Combine like terms:

$2D+2=13$

$2D+2-2=13-2$

$2D=11$

$\frac{2D}{2}=\frac{11}{2}$

$D=5.5$

Therefore, Robert's dog is 5.5 years old right now.

In a population of grasshoppers, the ratio of grasshoppers with a white marking to those without a white marking is 2:3. An ento

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

D. 116

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the grasshoppers with a white marking be 2x.

Let the grasshoppers without a white marking be 3x.

2x + 3x = 290

5x = 290

x = 290 / 5

x = 58

The grasshoppers with a white marking

= 2x

= 2 ( 58 )

= 116
