Here are the following justifications:

Given: -2 (x-1) +12=4x-6


Distribute property = -2x+2+12=4x-6


Combine like terms= -2x+14=4x-6

 

Transpose = -2x = 4x – 20

 

Addition or Subtraction Property of Equality = -6x = -20

 

Division property of equality = x = 20/6

 

Simplify = x = 10/3

If xy=0, what must be true about either x or y
evablogger [386]

Answer:

either x or y must equal 0​

Step-by-step explanation:

ts given that xy = 0

Remember that product of two numbers can be zero only if:

Both of them are zero or Either of them is zero as zero multiplied to any non-zero number will always be equal to zero. This is known as Zero Product Property.

So, if the product of x and y is equal to 0 there are two possibilities:

Both x and y are equal to 0

Either x or y must be equal to 0

Note that the condition both x and y are equal to zero is not a must condition, because even if one of them is equal to zero, the entire expression will be equal to zero.

Hence, the condition which has to be true in all cases for xy = 0 is:

either x or y must equal 0​

Ten less than a number is three more than six times the number.
Dahasolnce [82]

Write it as an equation:

X - 10 = 6x + 3

Now solve for x:

Subtract 3 from both sides:

x-13 = 6x

Subtract 1 x from both sides:

-13 = 5x

Divide both sides by 5:

x = -13/5
