Andrej [43]3 years ago

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.

Brody deposited 8,001 in a savings account with simple interest. Four months later the account held 8,267.70. What is the intere
Travka [436]

Answer:

R = 0.8333%/month

(R = 9.9996%/year)

Equation:

r = (1/t)(A/P - 1)

Calculation:

Solving your equation:

r = (1/4)((8267.7/8001) - 1) = 0.00833333

r = 0.00833333

Converting r decimal to R a percentage

R = 0.00833333 * 100 = 0.8333%/month

Calculating the annual rate

0.8333%/month × 12 months/year = 9.9996%/year.

The interest rate required to get a total amount, principal plus interest, of $8,267.70 from simple interest on a principal of $8,001.00 over 0.333333 years (4 months) is 0.8333% per month.

-5x6(3x2 - 12x + 30)
defon

I belive its

-5 × 6( 3 × 2 - 12x + 30 )

-5 × 6( 6 - 12x + 30 )

-5 × 6( -12x + 36 )

-30 ( -12x + 36 )

From this point you distribute (-30)

( 360x + -1,080 )

Then divide 360 from x and -1,080, to get -3 = x or i guess -3x then divide -3 by -3 to get just x by itself

Im not sure hope this helpes
