6(4.5y - 12) = 9
(4.5y - 12) = 9/6
4.5y - 12 = 1.5
4.5y = 1.5 + 12
4.5y = 13.5
y = 13.5/4.5
y = 3
3(x+1) = 2(x-8) + 3. First, remove the parentheses by distributing (multiplying out the numbers):
3x + 3 = 2x - 16 + 3.
Then, combine any like terms on the same side of the equals sign;
3x + 3 = 2x -13.
Then, move the like terms on opposite sides of the equals sign to the same side of the equals sign (don't forget to change the signs)..
3x -2x = -13 - 3.
Then combine the like terms on the same side of the equals sign again.. x = -16 .
Answer:
D) 3/2(X-4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Invert and multiply to get:
3(x+4)/2(x²-16)
factor the bottom
3(x+4)/2(x+4)(x-4)
The (x+4)’s cancel out, and you’re left with
3/2(X-4)
10samples(0.1pound/100samples)=0.01 lbs (one-hundredth of a pound)
2 sets of 4 marbles because there’s eight in all so 8 divided by 4 is 2
