2x+4=10
2x=6
x=3
2(3)+4= 10
(plus, on parallelograms like that, parallel sides are equal to each other)
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
If you were to do 20 divided by 2 you would get 10
Answer:
y= -1/6x+2
Step-by-step explanation:
3=-1/6(-6)+b
3=1+b
3-1=1-1b
2=b
Step-by-step explanation:
You can also write it as 45+28.
In English, a double negative is when two negative words are used in the same sentence.
A double negative in Math is when you have a scenario like this. For example, 1-(-1) is also equal to 1+1.
So 45+28 is 73.

<em>Part A: </em>
Let c represent the total amount of chocolate there is in lbs.
c = 0.25c + 0.75c
<em>Part B: </em>
0.75c represents milk chocolate, and we know that there are 3 lbs of milk chocolate, so you can replace the 0.75c with 3 (representing 3 lbs):
c = 0.25c + 3
Divide all the terms by c:
1 = 0.25 + 3/c
Subtract 0.25 from both sides to combine the like terms:
0.75 = 3/c
Multiply all the terms by c to make the equation easier to work with:
0.75c = 3
Divide both sides by 0.75 to isolate the c and find the total amount of chocolate in pounds.
c = 4
Substitute c for 4 in the term that defines dark chocolate (which was 0.25c)
0.25(4) = 1 pound
Therefore, there was exactly 1 pound of dark chocolate present in the chocolate.
This makes sense, as 1 pound of dark chocolate + 3 pounds of milk chocolate = 4 pounds of chocolate in total, and 1 is 25% of 4 and 3 is 75% of 4.
