He could use a scale to measure the weight and use pounds as the unit of measure.
Last one bc it jus is the last one so put in the last one bc the last one is the right one
Minus 16x both sides and add 28 to both sides
x^2-16x+28=0
factor
hmm, what 2 numbers multiply to 28 and add to -16
hmm
1 and 28? nope
2 and 14? yep
since middle term is negative and last tem is positive, both of the factors are negative
(x-14)(x-2)=0
set each to zero
x-14=0
x=14
x-2=0
x=2
x=2 and 14
Answer:
addition property of equality
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation 4(x-5) = -12
Expand
4x - 20 = -12
Add 20 to both sides (addition property of equality)
4x-20+20 = -12+20
4x = 8
x = 8/4
x = 2
Hence the value of x is 2
The justification for step 2 is addition property of equality
B is the right answer for this
