Answer:

$\boxed{x = 10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$= > 2x + 12 = - 2(4 - 2x) \\ \\ = > 2x + 12 = (( - 2) \times 4) - (( - 2) \times 2x) \\ \\ = > 2x + 12 = - 8 - ( - 4x) \\ \\ = > 2x + 12 = - 8 + 4x \\ \\ = > 2x - 4x + 12 = - 8 \\ \\ = > - 2x + 12 = - 8 \\ \\ = > - 2x = - 8 - 12 \\ \\ = > \cancel{-} 2x = \cancel{- }20 \\ \\ = > 2x = 20 \\ \\ = > x = \frac{20}{2} \\ \\ = > x = 10$

Find the equivalent fraction to next expression 3b^2 + 2(a+5.4b) -2.4b + 1.5a - 2b^2 a 2b2 + 3.5a + 8.4 b b b2 +3.5a + 8.4b c 2b

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

b²+3.5a+8.4b

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

3b^2 + 2(a+5.4b) -2.4b + 1.5a - 2b^2

Expand

3b^2 + 2a+10.8b -2.4b + 1.5a - 2b^2

Collect the like terms

= 3b²-2b²+2a+1.5a+10.8b-2.4b

= b²+3.5a+8.4b

Hence the equivalent expression is b²+3.5a+8.4b

If two points on line l above have coordinates (0, A) and (2, −3), and the slope of the line is A, then what is the value of A?

Vlada [557]

Answer:

A = -1

So, option (B) is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two points on line have coordinates: p (x₁, y₁) = (0, A) and q(x₂, y₂) = (2 , -3)

Slope of line = A

Slope of line = $\frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} -x_{1}}$

Now since the slope of line is A and its has two coordinates (0, A) and (2 , -3), ∴

$A = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} -x_{1}}$

$A = \frac{-3 - A}{2 - 0}$

$2A = -3 - A$

$2A + A = -3$

$3A = -3$

$A = -1$

So, option (B) is the correct answer.

Find the probability. Please show your work. Thanks!

Anni [7]

There were 100 total students surveyed.

There are 41 freshman students that have an ATM card.

The probability is the number of freshman that have an ATM card over the total number of students.

The probability becomes 41/100

Now divide the fraction to get the decimal answer:

41/100 = 0.410

The taxes on a piece of property valued at $40,000 were $860. At the same rate, what would be the taxes on property valued at $5

agasfer [191]

Ratio and Proportion Method
Since both are at the same rate, then ratio and proportion can be applied here

If $40000 = $860

Then $55000 =55000x(860/40000)
=$1182.50

Therefore the taxes which would be on $55000 is $1182.50
