2x+22=4(x+3)
2x+22=4x+12
2x+10=4x
10=2x
5=x

Hope this helps :)

First, you will start with distributive property. on the right side you will distribute 4 into x and 3.

the equation will become:
2x + 22 = 4x + 12

then you have to get x on only one side of the equal sign. subtract 2x from 4x and the equation becomes:
22 = 2x + 12

subtract 12 from 22:
10 = 2x

divide 10 by 2:
5 = x
or
x = 5

If f(x)=1/6x+12, then f^-1(x)=<br> PLEASE HELP

Finger [1]

$f(x)=\dfrac{1}{6}x+12\to y=\dfrac{1}{6}x+12$

Change x to y, and y to x.

$x=\dfrac{1}{6}y+12$

solve for y:

$\dfrac{1}{6}y+12=x\ \ \ |-12\\\\\dfrac{1}{6}y=x-12\ \ \ \ |\cdot6\\\\y=6x-72$

Your answer is:

$f^{-1}(x)=6x-72$

the number of grams a woman should eat in a day to maintain her weight is proportional to her weight. a woman weighing 102 pound

vitfil [10]

Given:
grams of fat : 34 grams TO weight of woman : 102 pounds
grams of fat : ? TO weight of woman : 180 pounds

This is a proportion problem: 34 grams to 102 pounds.

We first have to convert a unit of measure to another to maintain uniformity of measure. let us convert pounds to grams:

102 pounds * 453.592 grams / pound = 46,266.384 grams
180 pounds * 453.592 grams / pound = 81,646.560 grams

34 grams to 46,266.384 grams = x grams to 81,646.560 grams

proportion: a:b = c:d where ad = bc

34 grams * 81,646.560 grams = x * 46,266.384 grams
2,775,983.04 grams² = x * 46,266.384 grams
2,775,983.04 grams² ÷ 46,266.384 grams = x
60 grams = x

A woman weighing 180 pounds should eat 60 grams of fat to maintain her weight.
