The value of the equation is 2.56
The first option is correct
If we assume that ST = 2x + 2, and that TW = 4x - 4, then we can just add the two segments together, as shown below (IF you're asking for the length, that is).
(2x + 2) + (4x - 4)
2x + 2 + 4x - 4
Group together like terms.
(2x + 4x) and (2 - 4)
6x (+) - 2
Answer: 6x - 2
Answer:
First backpacker should receive $4 and the second one $2
Step-by-step explanation:
notice that the total amount of rice for the three is 600 g.
Then, the first one that gave 400 g contributed 400 out of 600, that is 400/600 = 2/3
The second one contributed 200 out of 600, that is 200/600 = 1/3
then the first one should receive 2/3 of the $6 = (2/3) x 6 = $4
and the second one should receive 1/3 of the %6 = (1/3) x 6 = $2
