2x(3+4a)=-16x+6x Solve please

Mathematics
1 answer:
IRINA_888 [86]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

2x(3 + 4a) = -16x + 6x

(3 * 2x + 4a * 2x) = -16x + 6x

Reorder the terms:

(8ax + 6x) = -16x + 6x

(8ax + 6x) = -16x + 6x

Combine like terms: -16x + 6x = -10x

8ax + 6x = -10x

Solving

8ax + 6x = -10x

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-6x' to each side of the equation.

8ax + 6x + -6x = -10x + -6x

Combine like terms: 6x + -6x = 0

8ax + 0 = -10x + -6x

8ax = -10x + -6x

Combine like terms: -10x + -6x = -16x

8ax = -16x

Divide each side by '8x'.

a = -2

Simplifying

a = -2 <— answer

In math i have to find the percent cost of 6 prices but i'm not sure how to.
tresset_1 [31]
My answer got deleted for some reason, so here we go again. To convert a number to a percent, you multiply the number by 100. So if you had the number 2.4, you would multiply it by 100 to get 240%. After multiplying it by 100, simply add a percent sign, and you're done!
