Answer:
One Twelfth (1/12) of a Mile per Day
Step-by-step explanation:
If Eliza has 3 days to build this fence, you can divide the total length of the fence (1/4 mile) into 3 sperate sections for each day. Dividing 1/4 by 3 gets you. 1/12 of a mile will be built each day.
300,000+90,000+5,000+40=395,040
395,040+10000=405,040
So...
-2(16-4x)-8=6(x+2) Multiply
-32+8x-8=6x+12 Add like terms
-40+8x=6x+12 Subtract 6x from both sides
-40+2x=12 Add 40 to both sides
2x=52 Divide 2 from both sides
x=26 Substitute to check
-2(16-4(26))-8=6((26)+2) Add and multiply in parenthesis
-2(-88)-8=6(28) Multiply
176-8=168 Subtract
168=168
So x=26
I hope this helps! Have a great day!
