Answer:
x = 12
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
- Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
- Equality Properties
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>
-2(x - 4) = -16
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Distribute -2: -2x + 8 = -16
- Isolate <em>x</em> term: -2x = -24
- Isolate <em>x</em>: x = 12
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute: -2(12 - 4) = -16
- Subtract: -2(8) = -16
- Multiply: -16 = -16
Here we see that -16 does indeed equal -16.
∴ x = 12 is a solution of the equation.
Why did both of their names have to start with the same letter
x=jay hours
y=jamie huours
x=10+3y
x=43
so
43=10+3y
minus 10
33=3y
divide 3
11=y
jamies spent 11 hours
Answer:
1.) y= 3
2.) y = 3/4 x -3
Step-by-step explanation:
In this case, we must use trigonometry to find the value of x:
Thus the value of x rounded to the nearest tenth is <u>8.2</u>

Hope that helps!
Answer:
The expression that is equivalent to -6x+9y would be -3(2x-3y)
