Step-by-step explanation:
Given
d1 = 6 miles
d2 = 19 miles
d3 = ?
d1+d2+d3 = 50
6+19+d3 = 50
25+d3 = 50
d3 = 50 - 25
= 25miles
Remark
The trick here is to remove the brackets carefully. Once you have done that the problem is almost solved.
- 2 = - (n - 8) Multiply both terms inside the brackets by - 1
-1 * n = - n
-1 * -8 = + 8 Be very careful with that. Make sure you understand that two minus's make a plus.
- 2 = - n + 8 Add n to both sides.
-2 + n = -n + n + 8
-2 + n = 8 Add 2 to both sides.
-2 + 2 + n = 8 + 2
n = 10
You should check this.
-2 = -(10 - 8)
-2 = -(2)
- 2 = - 2 and it checks.
Answer:
4 = 1x
Step-by-step explanation:
