Answer:
x = 12
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
- Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
- Equality Properties
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>
-2(x - 4) = -16
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Distribute -2: -2x + 8 = -16
- Isolate <em>x</em> term: -2x = -24
- Isolate <em>x</em>: x = 12
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute: -2(12 - 4) = -16
- Subtract: -2(8) = -16
- Multiply: -16 = -16
Here we see that -16 does indeed equal -16.
∴ x = 12 is a solution of the equation.

= 13y - 11
-----------------
7y + 6y = 13y
(-8) + (-3) = -11</span>
97 is a prime number. So it's only factors are 1 and 97.
Answer: A. When it comes after the decimal point, as in 4.000
Step-by-step explanation: If there are no other numbers after the zeros, there is no reason for them to be place holders. Zeros in decimals act as place holders such as in 4.09 or 4.0009. This actually does change the value of the decimal but 4.000 is just the same as a regular old 4. Hope this helps!
