You flip is when you mulitply the whole equation by a negative
not when you distribute a negative
if yo had
-3(x+4)>x
you wouldn't flip the negative symbol when distributing then -3
but if you had
-3(x+4)>-x
you would eventually have to multiply by -1 to make +1x
because they will be differente
exaple
12>3 is true
if yo multiply negative
-12>-3 is fale
-12<-3 is true
anothe rexample with placeholders
x<x+2
mulitply -1
-x>-x-2
false
-x<-x-2
true
that is why we flop the inequality symbole

Answer:
1) 40
2)9x-12
3)42
Step-by-step explanation:
1) A square has 4 sides, and if one side's length is 10, the perimeter (distance around the square) is 10 times 4=40
2) Simply add these values together to get 9x-12
3) Plug in 6 as x in 9x-12. (6*9)-12=54-12=42
Answer:
Then the solution is (4, 6).
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's use the substitution method:
First multiply the second equation by 4, obtaining 4y = -2x + 32.
Now substitute (-2x + 32) for 4y in the first equation:
3x + (-2x + 32) = 36, or
3x - 2x + 32 = 36. or
x = 4.
If x = 4, then the second equation yields y = (-1/2)(4) + 8, or
y = -2 + 8, or y = 6
Then the solution is (4, 6).
Check, using the first equation:
Does 3(4) + 4(6) = 36? Does 12 + 24 = 36? YES
