You do 5 times x and 5 times 4 and you’d end up with equation that says 5x-4=6. The you add 4 to both sides of the equation to cancel out the 4. Your equation should now say 5x=10. You divide both sides by 5 and you have your answer x=2

Answer:

26/5 or Simplified form would be 5.2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Distribute 5 to (x-4) by multiplying them.

5x-20=6

2. Add 20 to 6.

5x=20 plus 6.

3. Divide 5 to 26.

5x divided by 26.

Answer: It would be 26/5 but simplified it would be 5.2

Kieva made 5 times as many cookies as she did cupcakes. If she made 48 deserts in all , how many cupcakes did she make ?
VikaD [51]

Kieva made 8 cupcakes. 8 * 5 + 8 = 48 desserts.

In order to get this, you just have to try out different numbers of cupcakes and adjust based on whether it's too many desserts total, or not enough.

Another way to figure it out is to say that 1 cupcake + 5 cookies = 6 desserts. Then just divide 48 by 6 to get 8 which will then show you that Kieva made 8 cupcakes.

2c+17.6 =6 / 4 SOLVE give your answer as a decimal get brainly
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

-8.05

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve for C you first have to subtract 17.6 from both sides.

2c=(6/4)-17.6

6/4 is 1.5

1.5-17.6=-16.1

2c=-16.1

c=-8.05

What is the equation of the line that passes through point 5,8 and has a y-intercept of -2
Bess [88]

Answer:

y = 2x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

Sub x = 5, y = 8, and b = -2 into the equation.

8 = 5m - 2

Isolate the m-term and solve for m.

8 + 2 = 5m -2 + 2

10 = 5m

Divide both sides by 5 to isolate m.

m = 2

Sub the parameters (m and b) into the template to get your equation.

y = 2x - 2
