Answer:
B. 10
C. All real numbers.
Step-by-step explanation:
6 (2x-4) = 8(x + 2)
Distribute the numbers outside of the factors:
12x - 24 = 8x + 16
Subtract both sides by '8x'
12x - 8x - 24 = 8x - 8x + 16
4x - 24 = 16
Add '24' to both sides:
4x = 40
Divide both sides by 4:
x = 10. Therefore, <u>B. 10</u> is the correct answer.
3(4p - 2) = -6(1 - 2p)
Distribute the numbers similarly to the example before:
12p - 6 = -6 + 12p
Subtract '12p' from both sides:
12p - 12p -6 = -6 + 12p - 12p
0 -6 = -6
Add '6' to both sides:
0 - 6 + 6 = -6 + 6
0 = 0
Therefore, the solution consists of <u>all real numbers.</u>
Answer:
n+18
Step-by-step explanation:
A number n just means a variable n, and since we are increasing it (or adding to it), by 18, it is n+18
Answer:Brielle will run the half marathon race faster.Brielle will take 1 hour 44 minutes and 48 seconds, Joshua will take 2 hours 37 minutes and 12 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
10 / 1.25 = 8
8 minutes a mile
18 / 1.5 = 12
12 minutes a mile
Brielle will run the half marathon race faster.
8 x 13.1 =104.8
12 x 13.1=157.2
104.8 - 60=
44.8
60 seconds x .8= 48
Brielle will take 1 hour 44 minutes and 48 seconds
157.2 - 120 = 37.2
60 seconds x .2 = 12
Joshua will take 2 hours 37 minutes and 12 seconds
