Answer:
-3(-3x + 4) = 9x - 12
Step-by-step explanation:
-3( Ax + 4) = 9x - 12
-3Ax -12 = 9x - 12
Equating coefficients of x terms on both sides :
-3A = 9
A = -3
Therefore, -3(-3x + 4) = 9x - 12
Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
For this question, you can use power of a point, more specifically when two secants intersect in the interior of a circle. From this, you get the equation:
(7 + x)(12) = (10)(2x + 2)
You can simplify and solve:
84 + 12x = 20x + 20
84 = 8x + 20
64 = 8x
x = 8
Let us say that the numbers are x and y. The given clues
are:
1. x – y = 16 (so
x is the larger number)
2. y / x = 5 / 7
rewriting eqtn 2 in terms of y:
y = (5/7) x
combining 1 and 2:
x – (5/7) x = 16
(2/7) x = 16
x = 56
y = (5/7) x = 40
So the two numbers are 56 and 40.
12 inches = 1foot
1yard = 3feet
6yards = 18feet
Rerange the question:
If edging cost $2.32 per 1foot stone, and you want a double layer of edging around your flower bed that is 18feet by 3feet. How much will edging you flower bed cost?
Perimter:
2(18+3)=42
And since you want to double it; double the perimeter too.
42(2)=84
2.32(84)=194.88
Answer: The next two numbers are 6,480, -38,880.
Step-by-step explanation:
The pattern is to multiply each consecutive term by (-6). Understand that a negative number times a positive number is a negative number (eg: 5 x - 6 = -30).
A negative number times a negative number is a positive number
(eg: -30 x -6 = 180). Also, (-1,080 x -6 = 6,480.) (6,480 x -6 = 38,880).
Hope this helps.
