Answer:

x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

-4x – 6(3x + 4) = -4 + 8(1 - x)

Distribute

-4x – 18x  -24 = -4 + 8 -8x

Combine like terms

-22x -24 = 4-8x

Add 22x to each side

-22x+22x -24 = 4-8x+22x

-24 =4+14x

Subtract 4 from each side

-24-4 = 4+14x-4

-28 = 14x

Divide each side by 14

-28/14 =14/14

-2 =x

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

-4x – 6(3x + 4) = -4 + 8(1 - x)

combine like terms

-22x - 24 = -4 + 8 - 8x

Move the variable to the left-hand side and change the sign

-22 + 8 x - 24 =4

-14x = 4 + 24

-14x = 28

Divide both sides of the equation by -14

x = -2

A mixed number is one that has an integer along with a proper fraction, so that would be (for this improper fraction):

so that's how i got the answer of 4 1/6

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

<em>58.7 ft/sec</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The train traveled half a mile.

1 mile = 5280 ft

0.5 mile = 0.5 * 5280 ft = 2640 ft

A time from 10 sec to 55 sec is 55 sec - 10 sec = 45 seconds.

2640 ft in 45 seconds

speed = distance/time

speed = 2640 ft / 45 sec = 58.6666... ft/sec

Answer: speed = 58.7 ft/sec
