x = # of ham sandwiches
14-x = # of turkey sandwiches ( as Lexi made 14 sandwiches)
as the question said that the number of ha sandwiches are 4 less than twice number of turkey sandwiches,
x = 2 * (14-x) - 4 = 24 - 2x
3x=24
x = 8
the number of ham sandwiches is 8, and the number of turkey sandwiches is 14-8=6
Answer:
true
Step-by-step explanation: all rectangles have 2 long sides and 2 short sides
2/3 reciprocal is 3/2, & 8/3 reciprocal is 3/8. The numbers are just filled to find their reciprocal!
Answer:
x = -6/5
Step-by-step explanation:
distribute -4 on the left side of the equation first, then distribute 2 on the right side of the equation to get:
16x - 4 - 4x = 2x - 14 - 2
combine 'like terms':
12x - 4 = 2x - 16
subtract '2x' from each side to get:
10x - 4 = -16
add 4 to each side to get:
10x = -12
x = -12/10 or x = -6/5
