Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
-2(11-12)=-4(1-6x) becomes -2(-1) = -4(1 - 6x)
Next, we divide both sides by -2, obtaining -1 = 2(1 - 6x), and then
-1 = 2 -12x, or
-3 = -12x
Simplifying this result, we get 1 = 4x, or x = 1/4
We conclude that -2(11-12)=-4(1-6x) has ONE solution, which is x = 1/4
Answer:
1648
Step-by-step explanation:
5/9 are girls. The 9 represents the total.
Set up a proportion and you have
5/9 = ?/3708
3708/9=412
412x5= 2060 girls
3708-2060= 1648
Answer: 49
Step-by-step explanation:
From your question, I think you mean the largest number. The answer is given below.
Let the five consecutive odd numbers be:
a, a+2, a+4, a+6 and a+8.
Thee sum of the first and double the last is 139. This can be written as:
a + 2(a+8) = 139
a + 2a + 16 = 139
3a + 16 = 139
3a = 139 - 16
3a = 123
a = 123/3
a = 41
The first number = 41
The largest number = a+8 = 41 + 8 = 49.
Answer: 3(x-3y)
Step-by-step explanation: first you have to take the 3x and split it up so it can make 3(x-3y) then you have to rewrite it to -9 as 3x3 and then factor out common term 3 which would be your final answer 3(x-3y)
