Answer: x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
-4(-6x + 3) = 12
Reorder the terms:
-4(3 + -6x) = 12
(3 * -4 + -6x * -4) = 12
(-12 + 24x) = 12
Solving
-12 + 24x = 12
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '12' to each side of the equation.
-12 + 12 + 24x = 12 + 12
Combine like terms: -12 + 12 = 0
0 + 24x = 12 + 12
24x = 12 + 12
Combine like terms: 12 + 12 = 24
24x = 24
Divide each side by '24'.
x = 1
Simplifying
x = 1
To divide fractions, you need to multiply by the reciprocal. The reciprocal of 3/4 is 4/3, which is why the work is incorrect.

V(t) = dy/dt = 40 - 32t
ai). average velocity = (v(0.5) - v(0))/(0.5 - 0) = ((40 - 32(0.5)) - (40 - 32(0)))/0.5 = (40 - 16 - 40)/0.5 = -16/0.5 = -32m / s
ii). average velocity = (v(0.1) - v(0))/(0.1 - 0) = ((40 - 32(0.1)) - (40 - 32(0)))/0.1 = (40 - 3.2 - 40)/0.1 = -3.2/0.1 = -32m / s
iii). average velocity = (v(0.05) - v(0))/(0.05 - 0) = ((40 - 32(0.05)) - (40 - 32(0)))/0.05 = (40 - 1.6 - 40)/0.05 = -1.6/0.05 = -32m / s
