Answer:

6 (2 x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

4 (3 x + 2) - 2

Hint: | Distribute 4 over 3 x + 2.

4 (3 x + 2) = 12 x + 8:

12 x + 8 - 2

Hint: | Group like terms in 8 + 12 x - 2.

Grouping like terms, 8 + 12 x - 2 = 12 x + (8 - 2):

12 x + (8 - 2)

Hint: | Subtract 2 from 8.

8 - 2 = 6:

12 x + 6

Hint: | Factor out the greatest common divisor of the coefficients of 12 x + 6.

Factor 6 out of 12 x + 6:

Answer: 6 (2 x + 1)

I have four dogs whose average weight is 63 pounds. I also have three cats. The average weight of all seven of my animals is 41
Brums [2.3K]

Answer: 11.67 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, the person have four dogs whose average weight is 63 pounds. Then, the total weight of the dogs will be:

= 63 pounds × 4

= 252 pounds

There are also three cats and the average weight of all seven of my animals is 41 pounds. This means that the total animals have a title weight of:

= 41 pounds × 7

= 287 pounds.

To get the weight of the cats, we subtract the total dog's weight from that of the whole animals. This will be:

= 287 - 252

= 35 pounds.

Since there are 3 cats, their average weight will be:

= 35/3

= 11.67 pounds

The average weight of the cats is 11.67 pounds.
