Steps to solve:

-3(x + 2) = 12

~Distributive Property

(-3 * x) + (-3 * 2) = 12

~Simplify

-3x - 6 = 12

~Add 6 to both sides

-3x - 6 + 6 = 12 + 6

~Simplify

-3x = 18

~Divide -3 to both sides

-3x/-3 = 18/-3

~Simplify

x = -6

Best of Luck!

Carrie is buying bulk candy for a high school fundraiser. She buys 1000 candy bars for $350. What is the unit cost per candy bar
liubo4ka [24]
1000 candy bars ... $350
1 candy bar ... $x = ?

If you would like to know what is the unit cost per candy bar, you can calculate this using the following steps:

1000 * x = 350 * 1
1000 * x = 350    /1000
x = 350 / 1000
x = $0.35

Result: She can buy 1 candy bar for $0.35, so the correct result would be B) $.35.

Solve the equation: sin(2x)= sin x
Anna [14]

Answer:

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

sin(2x) = 2 ×cos(x)× sin(x)

● sin(x) = 2 × cos(x) × sin(x)

● 2 × cos(x) = 1

● cos (x) = 1/2

So we can deduce that:

● x = Pi/3 + 2*k*Pi

● or x = -Pi/3 + 2*k*Pi

K is an integer
