Answer:
x = - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
- 8x + 32 = 4(- 2 - 4x) ← distribute parenthesis on right side
- 8x + 32 = - 8 - 16x ( add 16x to both sides )
8x + 32 = - 8 ( subtract 32 from both sides )
8x = - 40 ( divide both sides by 8 )
x = - 5
Answer: -0.6, -1/4 (-0.25), -0.15
Step-by-step explanation: the farther away from 0, going left, the smaller the number.
Answer:
P = 2l + 2w
solve for w
re-write
2l + 2w = P
subtract 2l from both sides
2w = P - 2l
divide both sides by 2
w = (P - 2l) / 2
Answer is B
w = (P - 2l) / 2
Here we must write and solve a linear equation to find the number of miles that Arun traveled in the taxi. We will find that Eva traveled 11 miles.
So we know that the taxi charges a fee of $4.10 and then a plus of $0.50 per mile.
So if you travel for m miles, the cost equation is:
C(m) = $4.10 + $0.50*m
Now, we know that for Eva the total fare (total cost) was $9.60, then we need to solve:
$9.60 = C(m) = $4.10 + $0.50*m
$9.60 = $4.10 + $0.50*m
$9.60 - $4.10 = $0.50*m
$5.50 = $0.50*m
$5.50/$0.50 = m = 11
This means that Arun traveled 11 miles in the taxi.
