2x-10=2. (Answer=6)

2x=12 (you move the -10 to the other side of the equation to make it positive)

Then you divide by 2

2x divided by 2 equals x 12 divided by 2 is 6

So your number is 6. x=6

And you can check this by redoing the equation but putting 6 instead of x

2(6)-10=2

12-10=2

2=2

This equation is true therefore, your unknown number is 6

OleMash [197]

Answer:

B. A water wheel in a dry river

Step-by-step explanation:

Work is said to be done when a force moves a body or an object through a certain distance in the direction of the force. Thus for work to be done, force and distance are required.

i.e Work done = Force x distance

It is measured in Joules.

Also, the work done by an object could be a measured of potential energy.

So that,

Work done = potential energy = mass x gravitational force x height

Considering the collage in the question, since the water wheel is in a dry river no work is done. Water wheel is a device that functions through the flow of water body, thus causing its rotation.
