3(4-2x)=-2x will make brainiest to the first two people that answer correctly with explanation

Mathematics
1 answer:
ASHA 777 [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, distribute 3 into the parenthesis:

3(4 - 2x) = -2x

12 - 6x = -2x

Next, combine your x variables by adding +6x to both side:

12 - 6x = -2x           (-6x and +6x cancel out)

   +6x    +6x

12 = 4x                     (divide 12 by 4 to get x by itself)

/4     /4

x = 3

What is the value of y?
mrs_skeptik [129]
Ok so you would start by getting rid of the fraction. You should know the steps for that by now but here this is what it would look like
3y/4+10=2y/4 Simplify
3y/4+10=1y/2
10=-1y 
I really simplified the last part but this is what it looks like:  \frac{2y}{4}- \frac{3y}{4} = -1y
10=-1y
y=-10

The first two diamonds are filled in, can you figure out how the numbers are related when
balu736 [363]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Upper box in the diamond: Add the two numbers  ⇒ (-2) + 3 = -1

Bottom box in the diamond : Multiply the two numbers ⇒ (-2) * 3 = -6

3) Upper box = (-6) +  (-3)  = (-9)

Bottom box = (-6) *(-3) = 18

4) Upper box  = 1 +(-11) = -10

 Bottom box = 1 *(-11) = -11

5) Upper box = 7+8 = 15

Bottom box = 7*8 = 56

*I thought of a number, added 18, then multiplied the result by 8. I got 16. What was my number?
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

-16

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the number by n.

Then:

8(n + 18) = 16

Performing the indicated multiplication, we get:

8n + 144 = 16

Subtracting 144 from both sides results in 8n = -128.

Dividing both sides by 8:  n = -128/8  =  -16

The number was -16.
