Answer:x=24
Step-by-step explanation:x/2-8=4
Add 8 to both sides
x/2=12
Multiply each side by 2
x=24
Are the directions asking you to solve these ?
The greatest common factor is 28.
The factors of 56 are: 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 28, 56
The factors of 84 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 12, 14, 21, 28, 42, 84
Then the greatest common factor is 28.
Answer: (c - 3) / 2 = x
Step-by-step explanation:
If c represents the cookies, then you remove 3 because she ate 3 of the cookies. Since half of the remainder of the cookies were given to her friend, you must divide the product of c - 3, by 2. The reason for the parenthesis is so that it overrules PEMDAS, as parenthesis goes before division.
3x - y = 9
y = -2x + 11
3x - (-2x + 11) = 9
3x + 2x - 11 = 9
3x + 2x = 9 + 11
5x = 20
x = 20/5
x = 4
y = -2x + 11
y = -2(4) + 11
y = -8 + 11
y = 3
solution (where the lines intersect) is (4,3)
