Answer:

x= -14

Step-by-step explanation:

-distribute the 3 into (2x+4)-----> 6x + 12=5x - 2

-add 2 to both sides to cancel it-----> 6x + 14= 5x

-subtract 6x from both sides to get x to ones side-----> 14= -x

-don't stop here: cancel out the negative x term by dividing both sides by -1

------> x= -14

Answer:

= -14

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3(2x+4)=5x−2

(3)(2x)+(3)(4)=5x+−2(Distribute)

6x+12=5x+−2

6x+12=5x−2

Step 2: Subtract 5x from both sides.

6x+12−5x=5x−2−5x

x+12=−2

Step 3: Subtract 12 from both sides.

x+12−12=−2−12

x=−14

The diameter of a bike is 90cm. How far would it travel after 5 revolutions?
Nookie1986 [14]
We know that
[length of a circumference]=2*pi*r
diameter=90 cm-------------> r=d/2--------> r=45 cm
[length of a circumference]=2*pi*45----------> 90*pi cm

<span>with 1 revolution will go the length of the wheel</span>

if 1 revolution is-------------------> 90*pi cm
 5 revolution is--------------------> X
X=5*90*pi----------> 1413 cm

the answer is 1413 cm

Original price: $29.99; Markdown; 33 and 1/3%
Jobisdone [24]
If your asking what the price of something is, that was originally 29.99, and has been marked down by 33.33%, the easy way to do this is to take 30 and multiply it by 1/3, resulting in 20. The proper way is to take your calculator and multiply 29.99 by 0.333, resulting in roughly 9.98, meaning the price you pay is 20.00. Either way, your still going to pay $20 for the item.
