Answer:

1/2(6x-8)-2=39

.5(6x-8)-2=39

3x -4 -2 = 39

3x-6=39

3x-6+6=39+6

3x=45

3/3x=45/3

x=15

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2(6x-8)-2=39

.5(6x-8)-2=39

3x -4 -2 = 39

3x-6=39

3x-6+6=39+6

3x=45

3/3x=45/3

x=15

Answer:

11. 9hrs

12. 5hrs 35min

13. 3hrs 48 min

Step-by-step explanation:

Makes it a bit easier if you convert to 24 hr time.

12. 545-1120 is 11-5 20-45 -> 6hrs -25min -> 5hrs 35min

13. 1800 - 2148 is 21-18 48-00 -> 3hrs 48 min

Write a real-world problem that could be represented by the inequality.<br> 3x + 6 &gt; 27
liubo4ka [24]
Hello! We see that 6 is the fixed amount. x represents the amount of something, and the solution makes a number $27. Let's make a real-world problem and then execute it.

Fawn has $6 in her piggy bank. She makes bracelets to sell to family & friends for $3 each. She wants to buy a video game that with tax, costs a little over $27. How many bracelets would Fawn have to sell in order to have enough money to buy the video game?

How to solve it:

So we have the expression of 3x + 6 > 27. First off, subtract 6 from both sides. 6 - 6 cancels out. 27 - 6 is 21. That's 3x > 21. Now, divide each side by 3 to isolate the x. 3x/3 cancels out. 21/3 is 7. There. x > 7. Fawn will have to sell more than 7 bracelets in order to have enough money for the game.

-0.4x = -16

x = 40

Her speed was 40 on Thursday, so 36 on Friday
