-6(2+a) = -48
Distributive property
-12 -6a = -48
Add 12 to both sides
-6a = -36
Divide both sides by -6 and you get a= 6

Answer with explanation:

The given equality or expression in one variable is,

⇒  -6×(2+a)= -48

⇒ -6×(2+a)= -6× 8

Dividing both sides by , -6 we get

⇒ 2+a=8

Subtracting , 2 from both sides

⇒2+a-2=8-2

⇒a=6

What percent of 1/4 is 2/3 and what percent of 1/6 is 2/3 ?
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

The percentages are 267% and 400% respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answers of these, you need to divide the second number by the first. This will give you the percentage.

2/3 ÷ 1/4 = 8/3 = 2.67 = 267%

You can do the same for the second one.

2/3 ÷ 1/6 = 12/3 = 4 = 400%

A masonry contractor is preparing an estimate for building a stone wall and gate. He estimates that the job will take a​ 40-hour
kodGreya [7K]

Solution: Estimated time for the work is 40 hour work week.

Estimated payment to 3 laborers working 40 hours at cost $14 per hour is:

3\times 40\times 14= $1680

Estimated payment to 6 masons working 40 hours at cost $24 per hour is:

6\times 40\times 24= $5760

Estimated cost of material = $3143

Contractor wishes to make a profit of $500

Therefore, the mathematical expression that will give the estimated cost of the job is:

Cost = 1680+5760+3143+500

The estimated total cost is:

Cost =$11083
