Answer:

10 potatoes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of  potatoes.

Then by proportion:

30/12 = x/4

12x = 4*30 = 120

x = 10.

Solve the equation using the distributive property and properties ofequally 1/2 (x+6)=18 what is the value of X
Natali [406]

x = 30

The distributive property says that we need to multiply what's in the brackets by 1/2 (so 1/2*x and 1/2*6) to get the equation 1/2x + 3 = 18.

Then we need to subtract our constant, 3, from boths sides to get 1/2x = 15.

Multiply both sides by two to isolate x and you get x = 30.

Hope this helps! :)
