Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

4(2x – 1) + 8 = 4x + 24.

Factor out a 4 from each side

4{ 2x-1 +2} = 4(x+6)

Cancel the 4 on each side

2x-1+2 = x+6

Combine like terms

2x+1 = x+6

Subtract x from each side

2x+1-x = x+6-x

x+1 = 6

Subtract 1 from each side

x+1-1 = 6-1

x = 5

The area of a rectangle garden is 38 1/4 Square meters the width of the garden is 4 1/2 meters. Find the length of the garden

maxonik [38]

Area of rectangle it's the width multiply by the lenth.

A=W*L

A=38 1/4 m²
W=4 1/2 m²

So:       38 1/4 = 4 1/2 * L
Dividing both sides by 4 1/2: : 4 1/2         :4 1/2
      $38\frac14\ :\ 4\frac12\ =\ L\\\\L=\frac{153}4\ :\ \frac{9}2\\\\L=\frac{153}4\ \cdot\ \frac2{9}\\\\L=\frac{17}{2}\cdot\ \frac1{1}\\\\L=8\frac12$

Y = 3x - 4

y = 3(-1) - 4
y = -3 - 4 = -7
Graph pair is (-1, -7)

y = 3(0) - 4
y = 0 - 4 = -4
Graph pair is (0, -4)

y = 3(2) - 4
y = 6 - 4 = 2
Graph pair is (2, 2)

y = 3(4) - 4
y = 12 - 4 = 8
Graph pair is (4, 8)
