Mathematics

TEA [102]3 years ago

Answer:

x = 14/3

Step-by-step explanation:

4(2x-3)+8(x-4)=2(2x+6)

Distribute

8x -12 +8x - 32 = 4x +12

Combine like terms

16x -44 = 4x+12

Subtract 4x

16x-4x -44 = 4x+12-4x

12x -44 =12

Add 44 to each side

12x-44+44 = 12+44

12x = 56

Divide each side by 12

12x/12 = 56/12

x = 14/3

Answer:

x=\dfrac{14}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

4(2x-3)+8(x-4)=2(2x+6)

Expand parentheses:

8x-12+8x-32=4x+12

Combine similar terms:

16x-44=4x+12

Subtract 4x and add 44 to both sides:

12x=56

Divide both sides by 12:

x=\dfrac{14}{3}

Hope this helps!

There are 1,500 students in a school. 65% of them are girls. How many girls are there in the school?
Veronika [31]
First you have to multiply 1,500 by 65%.  A way to do that is 1,500 x 65 and then divide by 100.
So 1,500 x 65 is 97,500.
97,500 divided by 100 is 975.
The final answer is that there are 975 girls in the school.

If f(x) = 3x^2 - 4x + 5 and g(x) = 2x^2 + 2,<br> find f(x) – g(x).<br><br> Answer: x^2 - 4x + 3
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

f(x) – g(x) = x^2 - 4x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 3x^2 - 4x + 5 and g(x) = 2x^2 + 2,

f(x) – g(x) = 3x^2 - 4x + 5 - ( 2x^2 + 2)

Distribute the minus sign

f(x) – g(x) = 3x^2 - 4x + 5 - 2x^2 - 2

  Combine like terms

f(x) – g(x) = x^2 - 4x + 3

( – 1, – 5) 7x+2y=13, 4x+4y=14
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

{x,y} = {6/5,23/10}

Step-by-step explanation:

 [1]    7x + 2y = 13

  [2]    4x + 4y = 14  <---------- linear equations given

Graphic Representation of the Equations : PICTURE
2y + 7x = 13        4y + 4x = 14  

Solve by Substitution :

// Solve equation [2] for the variable  y

[2]    4y = -4x + 14

[2]    y = -x + 7/2

// Plug this in for variable  y  in equation [1]

  [1]    7x + 2•(-x +7/2) = 13

  [1]    5x = 6

// Solve equation [1] for the variable  x

  [1]    5x = 6

  [1]    x = 6/5

// By now we know this much :

   x = 6/5

   y = -x+7/2

// Use the  x  value to solve for  y

   y = -(6/5)+7/2 = 23/10

// Plug this in for variable  y  in equation [1]

 [1]    7x + 2•(-x +7/2) = 13

  [1]    5x = 6

// Solve equation [1] for the variable  x

 [1]    5x = 6

[1]    x = 6/5

// By now we know this much :

   x = 6/5

   y = -x+7/2

// Use the  x  value to solve for  y

  y = -(6/5)+7/2 = 23/10
