** this is just an example on how this works & may not be the actual equation you have**

1/2 • 3x = 3

multiply both sides by the inverse of the fraction ( 2/1, which is just 2)

3x = 6

then find x by dividing by 3

x = 2

-2/3 (c-12)= <br><br> Please simplify this expression
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

-2/3c + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

-2/3 (c-12)    distribute (multiply) the -2/3 to everything in the parentheses.

-2/3 * c = -2/3c

-2/3 * -12 = 24/3 which simplifies to 8 (negative times a negative = positive)

-2/3c + 8 is your answer

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

easy claps!!

Answer: 30=2x+4 and there are 17 girls in the class.

Step-by-step explanation: if x+4=[total girls] and x=[total boys] and 30=[total kids], then x+4+x = 2x+4 = [total kids], since total kids id 30 then our equation is 30 = 2x + 4 and x= 13boys so 30-13= 17girls.

It's BASIC prealgebra so you should probably practice bit more with linear equations!
