What is 12c - c____ in simplest form?

1 answer:

6 0

Imagine that the variable c represents something tangible, like an orange. So what this equation is asking is subtract 1 orange from 12 oranges. So you are left with 11 oranges.

Another way to think about this problem is if you rewrite the equation slightly to:

12c - c =
12c - 1c =
11c

What is the simplified form of x+8/4-x+5/4

castortr0y [4]

X+8/4-x+5/4
The first term in the series is a positive "x", and the third one is a "-x". Since these are opposites, they cancel out
x+8/4-x+5/4
8/4+5/4
13/4
4 1/4

If y represents a number, write an expression for 4 more than 3 times the number

Kazeer [188]

We need to multiply Y by 3 since it says "3 times the number".

3Y; next we need to add 4 since it says 4 more.

3y+4; the reason I knew to put it in this order is because it said 4 more than 3 times, which means you add 4 after you multiply.

The expression is 3Y+4

If √6 is the geometric mean between 4 and another number, then the number is<br> 1.5<br> 9<br> 24

konstantin123 [22]

Correct answer is A.

g - geometric mean
$g= \sqrt{ab} 
\\
\\g= \sqrt{6} ,a=4,b=?
\\ \sqrt{6}= \sqrt{4b} 
\\ (\sqrt{6})^2= (\sqrt{4b} )^2
\\6=4b
\\
\\b= \frac{6}{4} = \frac{3}{2}=1.5$
