12 = -4(-6x -3) +24

Mathematics

Reil [10]3 years ago

Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

12 = 24 - 4 (-6 x - 3)

-4 (-6 x - 3) = 24 x + 12:

12 = 24 x + 12 + 24

Grouping like terms, 24 x + 12 + 24 = 24 x + (12 + 24):

12 = 24 x + (12 + 24)

12 + 24 = 36:

12 = 24 x + 36

12 = 24 x + 36 is equivalent to 24 x + 36 = 12:

24 x + 36 = 12

Subtract 36 from both sides:

24 x + (36 - 36) = 12 - 36

36 - 36 = 0:

24 x = 12 - 36

12 - 36 = -24:

24 x = -24

Divide both sides of 24 x = -24 by 24:

(24 x)/24 = (-24)/24

24/24 = 1:

x = (-24)/24

The gcd of -24 and 24 is 24, so (-24)/24 = (24 (-1))/(24×1) = 24/24×-1 = -1:

Answer:  x = -1

Bill spent $42 on fruit at the grocery store. He spent a total of $60 at the store. What percentage of the total did he
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

70%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total percentage of his $60 dollars that he spent on fruit, we simply take the amount of money spent on fruit divided by the total spent.

% spent on fruit = 42 / 60

% spent on fruit = 0.7

% spent on fruit = 70 %

Cheers.

Geometry questions....help me someone please
AlekseyPX

Answer:

Triangle 1: x = 80 degrees, acute

Triangle 2: x = 10 degrees, right

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle 1:

By the Sum of Interior Angles Theorem, all the angles inside the triangle adds up to 180 degrees. So, set up this equation:

60 + 40 +x = 180

Solve for x:

100 + x = 180\\x = 80

So, x = 80 degrees

Because all the angles are less than 90 degrees, this is an acute triangle.

Triangle 2:

By the Sum of Interior Angles Theorem, all the angles inside the triangle adds up to 180 degrees. So, set up this equation (with the right angle given):

3x + 60 + 90 = 180

Solve for x:

3x + 150 = 180\\3x = 30\\x = 10

So, x = 10 degrees

Because there is an angle measuring 90 degrees, this is a right triangle.
