Answer:

<h2>Add 24 and 40</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

3(8 - 2x) + 40 = 34       <em>use the distributive property a(b + c) = ab+ ac</em>

3(8) + 3(-2x) + 40 = 34

24 - 6x + 40 = 34          <em>combine like terms</em>

-6x + (24 + 40) = 34      <em>Answer: Add 24 and 40</em>

-6x + 64 = 34            <em>subtract 64 from both sides</em>

-6x = -30          <em>divide both sides by (-6)</em>

x = 5

Answer:

Add 24 and 40.

Step-by-step explanation:

Steven is solving the equation 3(8-2x)+40=34

Step 1:

3(8)+3(-2x)+40=34

Step 2:

24-6x+40=34

So, according to pemdas, the next step is Add 24 and 40.

Then this becomes:

Step 3:

64-6x=34

So, the answer will be option 2: Add 24 and 40.

What inequality describes the weight range of a single nickel
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

4.806 g ≤ n ≤ 5.194 where n is the mass of a nickle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem tells us the weight can vary by .194 g, this means it can be up to .194 lighter and 194 heavier.  Well what value is .194 lighter and .194 heavier?  4.806 and 5.194 respectively.  So that means a nickle can be anywhere in that range, which tells us the inequality.
