How would I solve this? 4a-6=-2+14

Solving these equations can prove to be tricky, but once you understand them, ridiculously easy! <u><em>Remember:</em></u> <em>your goal is to reduce it to (variable=number). Make sure to use opposite operations to cancel out numbers, and don't forget what you do to one side you must do to the next. There isn't one true order, but you'll know you have a great understanding of what you're doing if you can solve it numerous different times and wind up with the same result!</em>

Set up the equation!

4a-6=-2+14

Let's try subtracting 14 from both sides! We must do the opposite operation to cancel it out.

14-14=0\\-6-14= -20

Now we have

4a-20=-2

We have to start on the left side now, because we can't have an equation with one blank side. The number you start with will end up getting canceled out, as 0. How about we add 20 to both sides?

-20+20=0\\-2+20=18

Now we have

4a=18

Next, we have to apply the opposite opperation to both sides. The only opperation left is multiplication (4a). Therefore, we need to divide by 4, because we have to isolate a.

4a/4=a\\18/4=4.5

Now we have

a=4.5

Your answer is a=4.5!

<u><em>Remember:</em></u><em> </em><em>Combine like terms first, it's much easier!</em>

Please let me know if this helped or if you have questions, and if you can, I'd be so grateful to receive a rating! Two-sided equations took me a long time, so I want to help you understand!

Mr. Woo wants to ship a fishing rod that is 42 inches long to his son. He has a box with the dimensions shown.
brilliants [131]

Answer:

A. s^2=1,700

B. 42.4 inches. It will fit.

Step-by-step explanation:

A.

Let s =  the length of the diagonal across the bottom of the box.

w^2+l^2\\\\10^2+40^2 = s^2\\\\100+1,600 = s^2\\\\1,700 =s^2\\\\

Therefore, s^2=1,700

B.

Let r = the length from a bottom corner to the opposite top corner.

h^2+s^2\\\\10^2+1,700=r^2\\\\100+1,700=r^2\\\\1,800=r^2 \\\\42.4=r

Therefore, the length of the longest tube that will fit in the box is 42.4 inches.

Since the fishing rod is only 42 inches long, which is less than 42.4 inches, by only 0.2 inches, it means it will still fit.

HELP ASAP!!!!!!!! 15 POINTS + BRAINLIEST!!!!!!
Andre45 [30]
A) c=18
0.5c^2 +13=94
subtract 13 from both sides
0.5c^2 = 81
Square root of both sides to get c alone
0.5c=9
double c to make it just c
c=18

B) x=8
(x-2)^2+1=37
Subtract one from each side
(x-2)^2=36
square root each side
x-2=6
add the 2 over
x=8
