Answer:
22
Step-by-step explanation:
(4 x 4) + (2 x 3) = 16 + 6 = 22
For this problem, I'd use cross-multiplication.
9/12 = x/8.
When cross multiplying, multiply 12*x and 9*8. This leads to a new equation:
12x = 72.
Then you solve as an algebra problem.
*Divide 12 on both sides*
x = 6.
ten less than the cube of a number n:
Answer:
a = 4 b = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
8a + 12b = 92......eqn 1
6a - 4b = 4......eqn 2
multiply eqn 2 by 3
18a - 12b = 12.....eqn 2
add eqn 1 and 2 to eliminate b
26a = 104
a = 4
put a = 4 into eqn 2
18(4) - 12b = 12
72 - 12b = 12
72 - 12 = 12b
60 = 12b
5 = b
