Answer:

x=13

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to isolate the variable

3(x-4)=x+14

distribute

3x-12=x+14

subtract 14 from each side

3x-26=x

subtract 3x from each side

-26=-2x

divide each side by -2

13=x

flip sides

x=13

hope this helps!!! :)

Answer:

X= 8.6666

Step-by-step explanation:

First multiply ehat is on the outside by the inside.

3×X=3x

3×-4= -12.

Now you have 3X-12= X+14

First add -12 to 14.

Your goal is to get all the numbers on one side and the letters on the other side.

12+14=26.

Now you have 3X=26

To get the X by itself divide 3 on both sides.

X÷3= X

26÷3=8.6666

So your answer is X=8.6666

What is the equivalent expression for 2x + 8y​
klio [65]

If this helps you consider making it brainliest as it helps me out.

2(x+4y) is the equivalent expression.

Let’s say x = 1 and y = 2

Then 2x + 8y would be 18

Same thing for 2(x+4y)

Hope this helps!

haru rides his bike from his home for 30 minutes at a fast pace. He stops to rest for 20 minutes, and then continues riding in t
Bezzdna [24]

Using the given information and what we know about linear equations, we will find the sketch below.

<h3>How to sketch a graph?</h3>

Here we need to analyze each part separately.

In a coordinate axis where the y-axis represents distance and the x-axis represents time, we will have that:

First, we know that he rides for 30 minutes at a given speed, this will be represented with an increasing linear function.

Then he stops for 20 minutes, this is represented with a horizontal line.

Finally, he returns the motion, but slower than before, so the slope of this line will be smaller than the first one.

So for 0 to 30 we have an increasing linear equation, then for 30 to 50 we have a constant horizontal line, then for 50 to 80 we have another increasing linear equation

The sketch can be seen below.

Customers at an ice cream shop took a survey. The results showed that 144 customers rated the shop as being "very satisfactory."
stepladder [879]

Answer:

320 customers is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You have to divide 144 by 45% to find one percent of the customers (you get 3.2).

2. Once you get one percent of all of the customers (3.2) you multiply it by 100 to get 100 percent of the customers (or total number of customers).

So, 320 total customers

Have a great day, I hope you like the explination.
