The answer to the question
Answer:
x= -4
Step-by-step explanation:
distribute
combine like terms
subtract 4x from both sides
subtract 8 from both sides
divide both sides by -2
Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
Let be "x" the time in minutes a 150-pound person must walk at 4 mph to use at least 190 calories.
The amount of calories that a 150-pound person uses in 1 minute when walking at a speed of 4 mph is:

Therefore, knowing this, we can write the following proportion:

Finally, we must solve for "x" in order to find its value.
Multiplying both sides of the equation by 190, we get this result:

Answer:
45 old houses
Step-by-step explanation:
new houses : old houses
3 : 9
15 : ?
(3 = 1st ratio and 9 = 2nd ratio)
To find the missing ratio, divide the first ratio from the new ratio:
15 / 3 = 5
Take the product and multiply that by the second ratio to find the missing ratio:
9 x 5 = 45
Let us name the players A,Dave,Zack,Paul,E and F
For the first position there are two candidades ( Zack / Paul )
For the second position there is only one candidate i.e. Dave
For the third place there will be 4 candidates (out of Zack and Paul - 1 as one of them is already taken for the first position and A, E and F total-4)
For the fourth place there will be 3 candidates ( out of the four available candidates in the 3rd place, one will be taken up for 3rd place )
For the fifth place there will be 2 candidates
Finally, for the last place there will be only one candidate left.
On multiplying the no. of available cadidates, we get 2 * 1 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 = 48 i.e. option (A)
Please mention minor spelling mistakes
For the second question:
Let the no of dotted marbles be 'x' and no of striped marbles be 'y'
then the equation will become as follows
(y+6)/x = 3
and
(x+6)/y = (2/3)
On solving the equations, we will get x = 10 and y = 24
Total balls = 10+24+6 = 40 (option E)
Answer 3 will be ) For the first edge, he can choose 3 paths
For the second edge he can choose 2 paths for each path of its first edge's path
For the third , he is bounded to move on the paths created by the first and the second edges hence 1 path for each path created by the first and the second edge together
It will be multiplication of all the possibilities of the paths of the three edges differently.........
i.e. 3 * 2 * 1 = 6
