Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

-3(4x-8) = -36 ​

Divide each side by -3

-3/-3(4x-8) = -36 ​/-3

4x-8 = 12

Add 8 to each side

4x-8+8 = 12+8

4x = 20

Divide each side by 4

4x/4 = 20/4

x = 5

Steps to solve:

-3(4x - 8) = -36

~Distribute

(-3 * 4x) + (-3 * -8) = -36

~Simplify

-12x + 24 = -36

~Subtract 24 to both sides

-12x + 24 - 24 = -36 - 24

~Simplify

-12x = -60

~Divide -12 to both sides

-12x/-12 = -60/-12

~Simplify

x = 5

Best of Luck!

anna is on a road trip. she uses 3/4 of a tank of gas every 9/2 hours. How many tanks of gas will anna use after 12 hours?
tatiyna

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a proportional question. If you learn how to keep things together, they are not only easy to do, they are mechanical: they are all done exactly the same way.

tanks of gas             different tanks of gas          

==========     =         ================

hours                                  different hours.

initial tank of gas = 3/4 tank

initial hours = 9/2 = 4.5 hours

final tanks of gas = X

final time = 12 hours.

Solution

3/4                            x

====         =      ==============

4.5                           12

Cross multiply

4.5x = 12*3/4                      Combine the right

4.5x = 36/4                        Simplify  

4.5x = 9                              Divide both sides by 4.5

x = 9/4.5

x = 2

So she will need 2 tankfuls.
