Let x = the number.
"increased by" tells you we are adding.
"twice a number" tells you 2 times a number.
16 + 2x = - 24
Subtract 16 from both sides so that we have the variable on one sides and the constants on the other.
2x = - 24 - 16
2x = - 40
Divide by 2 to isolate the variable.
x = - 40/2 = - 20
Your solution is - 20.
To check your answer, plug in.
16 + 2(-20) = - 24
16 - 40 = - 24
- 24 = - 24
Ln ( a^(-4) / b^1 c^1 ) =
= ln a ^(-4) - ( ln b + ln c ) =
= - 4 ln a - ln b - ln c =
= - 4 * 2 - 3 - 5 =
= - 8 - 3 - 5 = - 16
the area is 180 cm. to find the perimeter you would do 15+15+14+14 to get 54 cm. So for area you do (l×w) which is 15×14=180.
1/3 is the slope.
x-3y=2
-3y=-x+2
y=(1/3)x+2/3
