Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that the change of base formula is 
Yes and no. A negative number and it's opposite are 'integers.' Yes, a negative and a negative multiplied together give you a positive. The two negative signs cancel out making it positive. But no, a positive and a positive multiplied together do not give you a negative. When you subtract positive numbers you can get a negative, but not when multiplying. If you were to do a positive times a negative it would be negative because the positive can't cancel it out. Example: -3 · -3 = 9. [] 3 · 3 = 9. [] -3 · 3 = -9. Other than the positive number part, the statement is true about the negatives. I hope that helped!
Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
First expand 2/3 (9x-6) = 4 (x+2)+ 2 By doing 2/3 (9x - 6)/3
Which gives you 2/3 (9x - 6)
Then you factor it 2/3 (9x - 6) 6 (3x - 2) get 6 (3x - 2) / 3
then you divide 6/3 with 2
Getting 2 (3x - 2)
The use the distributive law
2 x 3x - 2 x 2
simplify the equation
6x - 4
expand 4 (x +2) + 2: 4x + 10
which then equals 6x-4=4x+10
add 4 to both sides
6x-4+4=4x+10+4
simplify
6x=4x+14
subtract 4x from both sides
simplify again
2x=14
divide both sides by 2
2x/2 = 14/2
simplify one last time and get the answer
x=7
