Answer:

x = 12

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
  • Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>

-2(x - 4) = -16

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Distribute -2:                    -2x + 8 = -16
  2. Isolate <em>x</em> term:                  -2x = -24
  3. Isolate <em>x</em>:                           x = 12

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute:                    -2(12 - 4) = -16
  2. Subtract:                       -2(8) = -16
  3. Multiply:                        -16 = -16

Here we see that -16 does indeed equal -16.

∴ x = 12 is a solution of the equation.

There were two trees growing from seeds in a backyard. One tree grew at a rate of 1//2 of a foot every 2 years. The other grew 4
Ann [662]

Answer:

The height between the two trees will be 1.67 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

What you do is you take the 1/2 have and times it by 6 because it is every two years that the tree grows 1/2 of a foot. So it will be 3 feet. The other tree grew 4 inches in 3 years so it will be 16 inches you will then have to make the 16 inches into feet to get 1 1/3. You will then minus the 3 feet and the 1 1/3 to get 5/3 or 1.67 feet.

PART 20 ! PLEASE HELP ALGABRA 1
34kurt

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

If it cost $2.05 for each hamburger that's going to be your constant.

And it says plus an additional $2,000 so you will add that after 2.05x.

And it says 13,025 is the total so that would be on the left.

13,025 = 2.05x + 2,000

I'm 100% sure

I took Honors Algebra 1 in 8th grade, so you can trust me!!!
