What is the value of X?

Simplify:
8x - 10 - 4x =   - 12(12x - 20)


Simplify both sides:
8x - 10 - 4x =  - 12(12x -20)

8x +  - 10 +  - 4x  = (- 12)(12x) + ( -12)(- 20)
(Distribute:)
8x +  - 10 +  - 4x = 144x 240

(8x +  - 4x) + ( -10) =  - 144x + 240 (Combine Like Terms:)

4x +  - 10 =  - 144x + 240

4x - 10 =  - 144x + 240

Add - 144x to both sides:

4x - 10 +  144x =   - 144x + 240 + 144x

148x - 10 = 240


Add 10 to both sides:

148x - 10 + 10 = 240 + 10

148x = 250

Divide both sides by 148

148x/148 = 250/148

x = 125/74


Answer:  x = 125/74 (Decimal: 1.689189)



Hope that helps!!!!

Three people invest in a treasure dive, each investing the amount listed below. The dive results in 40 gold coins. Apportion tho
garri49 [273]

Answer:

Alice: 20 coins, Ben: 16 coins, and Carlos: 4 coins.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the dive results in 40 gold coins.

We know that:

Alice: $7,600 Ben: $5,900 Carlos: $1,400.

So they have $ 14900 in total.

Now we will divide that money by 40.

x=\frac{14900}{40}\\\\x=372.5

So 1 gold coin costs $ 372.5. Now we will calculate how much they can get for the money they have.

A=\frac{7600}{372.5}=20.4\\\\B=\frac{5900}{372.5}=15.8\\\\C=\frac{1400}{372.5}=3.75\\

We conclude that:

Alice: 20 coins, Ben: 16 coins, and Carlos: 4 coins.
