The given equation -2(11 - 12x) = -4(1 - 6x) has infinite solutions
<u><em>Solution:</em></u>
Given that we have to solve the given expression
Given expression is:
-2(11 - 12x) = -4(1- 6x)
We have to use distributive property to solve the given expression
The distributive property lets you multiply a sum by multiplying each addend separately and then add the products.
Which means,
a(b + c) = ab + ac
Apply this in given expression
-2(11 - 12x) = -4(1-6x)
-22 + 24x = -4 + 24x
When both sides of the equation are simplified, the coefficients are the same, then infinite number of solutions occur
If we end up with the same term on both sides of the equal sign, such as 24x = 24x, then we have infinite solutions
Mitch did not line the place values up right
y + (2x -12) = 180 (since they are supplementary angles)
(2x-12) = 96 ( since they are alternate exterior angle)
2x = 96 + 12
2x = 108
x = 108/2
x = 54.
y+( 2x-12)=180
y+(2× 54 -12) = 180
y + (108-12) = 180
y + 96 = 180
y= 180-96
y = 84.
None of the statements on that list is true.
