Simplify the equation.
First, distribute the 2 in the left side of the equation.
Resulting in: 2x-6 = (x-1) + 7
Second, remove the parentheses form the right side of the equation (there is nothing to distribute there).
Resulting in: x - 1 + 7
Now simplify the right side of the equation by subtracting the 1 from the 7.
Resulting in: x + 6
Our goal is to isolate the x to the left side, and the numerals to the right side.
With that in mind, add the 6 (from the right side) to both sides. This cancels out the 6 on the right side.
Resulting in: 2x = 12
Lastly, in order to fully isolate the variable (x), we divide both sides by 2.
Resulting in: x = 6
Hope this helps.
26 would be the correct answer because 2/3 X 40 = 26.667 but you cant serve a little bit of soup so the total would be 26 Hoped this helped
Caution: you need to use the same units of measurement throughout. If the spring stretches by 21 cm when a 135 newton object is attached, then you must ask for the mass (in newtons) of a fish that would stretch the spring by 62.1 cm.
We will need to assume that the spring is not stretched at all if and when no object is attached to the spring.
Write the ratio
21.0 cm 135 newtons
------------- = --------------------
62.1 cm x
Solve this for x. This x value represents the mass of a fish that would stretch the spring by 62.1 cm. You can cancel "cm" in the equation above:
21.0 135 newtons
------ = --------------------
62.1 x
Then 21.0x = (62.1)(135 newtons). Divide both sides of this equation by 21.0 to solve it for x.
Answer:
20a³
Step-by-step explanation:
Simply multiply:
-5(-4) = 20
-a(-a)(a) = a²(a) = a³
20a³
