Mathematics
1 answer:
Andrej [43]2 years ago
6 0

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.

To find Matt's typing rate, divide (4/5 page) by (2/5 hour).

Note that since both denominators are 5, we can drop the denominators.  Then, Matt's rate is  4 pages divided by 2 hours, or 2 pages/hour.  That's his typing rate.
