Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First I just made -2/5 into a decimal because I like to work with decimals better (which equals -.4)
Then I times everything separately in the parenthesis and got -8x+6
Next you move the 6 over to the left side of the equals sign which would make the equation be -6 = -8x
Lastly you divide the -8 from -6 and you get X = 3/4
Answer:
The GCF is 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
In my opinion, one of the easier ways to find the greatest common factor of two numbers is to get the prime factors of both and multiply the common ones. The prime factorization of 8 is 2*2*2, and the prime factorization of 162 is 2*3*3 (you can make a factor tree for both of these numbers to verify this). The only common prime factor for both of these numbers is 2, which means the greatest common factor of 8 and 18 is 2.
P=4*a, where P - perimeter, a - length of one side of the square.
if a=x+3 and P=48, then 4(x+3)=48;
x=9.
Answer: 9 units.
Answer:
1/2 and 1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
u= 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Using BIDMAS
Step 1: Expand the bracket
9(u-2) + 1.5u=8.25
9u-18+1.5u=8.25
Step 2: collect like terms
9u+1.5u=8.25+18
10.5u=26.25
Step 3: Divide both sides by 10.5 to get u
u= 
= 2.5
