Solve 4 + 4 ( x - 2 ) = 2 ( x + 1 ) - x<br> The question requires you to show your work
kati45 [8]

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step  1  :

Equation at the end of step  1  :

 (4+(4•(x-2)))-(2•(x+1)-x)  = 0

Step  2  :

Equation at the end of step  2  :

 (4 +  4 • (x - 2)) -  (x + 2)  = 0

Step  3  :

Step  4  :

Pulling out like terms :

4.1     Pull out like factors :

  3x - 6  =   3 • (x - 2)

Equation at the end of step  4  :

 3 • (x - 2)  = 0

Step  5  :

Equations which are never true :

5.1      Solve :    3   =  0

This equation has no solution.

A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

5.2      Solve  :    x-2 = 0

Add  2  to both sides of the equation :

                     x = 2

One solution was found :

                  x = 2

A basketball team took a total of 100 shots. One player took 70% of all 100 shots, and
NemiM [27]

The player took a total of 70 shots and missed about 28 shots.

<h3>Percentage</h3>

Percentage is used in expressing a fraction number or decimal in fraction of 100. It is expressed using the '%' sign.

Given a total shot of 100, since the player took 70% of the shot, hence:

Total shot taken by the player = 70% of 100 = 0.7 * 100 = 70 shots.

Total shot shot missed = (100% - 60%) of 70 = 40% of 70 = 0.4 * 70 = 28 shots.

The player took a total of 70 shots and missed about 28 shots.
