Regardless of the sign of
, we have
(never negative). But multiplying by -1 makes it negative.
On the other hand,
which can never be negative for real
.
Answer: see work below
Step-by-step explanation:
1) 3(2f + 4)
distribute the 3
= 6f + 12
2) 3(4t + 2)
distribute the 3
= 12t + 6
3) 7(6k -2v)
distribute the 7
= 42k - 14v
4) 5(2q - 9)
distribute the 5
= 10q - 45
(im not sure what the red mark is. if it's a negative than my answer would be opposite: -10q + 45)
5) 3(2e + 5t)
distribute the 3
= 6e + 15t
(im not sure what the red mark is. if it's a negative my answer would be opposite: -6e -15t)
6) 4(3r - 5)
distribute the 4
= 12r - 20
148 1/3 inches. 72 x 148 1/3 = 10,680
To get the answer 10,680 / 72 = 148 1/3
Answer is x=53
hope this helps
