Answer:

x = -36.

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3x - 8 = 1/2(x - 12) + 4

multiplying through by the LCM 6;

6 × 1/3x - 6 × 8 = 6 × 1/2(x - 12) + 6 × 4

2x - 48 = 3(x - 12) + 24

2x - 48 = 3x - 36 + 24

2x - 48 = 3x - 12

-48 + 12 = 3x - 2x

-36 = x

hence x = -36.

Answer:

x = -36

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute 1/2 to x - 12 first to get 1/2x - 6.  Combine -6 and 4 together to get -2.  Your equation should now be 1/3x - 8 = 1/2x - 2.  Subtract 1/3x on both sides to get 1/6x.  Add 2 on both sides to get -6.  Since you are dividing a fraction number, you want to do the opposite and instead multiply 6 on both sides to get your x value which is -36.

your car broke down and the final bill was $306.50. The part that was replaced cost $119 and the charge mechanics labor was 75 p
erastova [34]

Answer:

\huge\boxed\text{Equation:}\huge\boxed{\text{Equation:   }119+75x=306.50}\\

\huge\boxed{\text{Hours worked on:   } 2.5}

Step-by-step explanation:

We can create an equation for this problem by converting the words to an equation.

The <em>flat fee</em> was $119. We then add $75 for every hour worked. This means that this becomes 119+75x. Since the total cost was $306.50, the equation is 119+75x=306.50.

We can now solve for x, the amount of hours worked, to find it’s value.

119 + 75x = 306.5\\\\75x=187.5\\\\x = 2.5

Hope this helped!

You have 9 pieces of wood of different lengths that you are attempting to glue together that will have a length of exactly 10 in
Sauron [17]
The possible combinations are:
1,9
2,8
3,7
4,6
9,1
8,2
7,3
6,4

Total straws: 9
Probability of first being 1: 1/9
Probability of second being 9: 1/8
Probability of both: 1/9 x 1/8 = 1/72

This will be multiplied by 8 as there are 8 possible combinations:
8 x 1/72
= 8/72
= 1/9

-5(3x-1+3x = 3 what is x?
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

x = 1/15

Step-by-step explanation:

-5(3x-1+3x) = 3

add like terms:

-5(6x-1) =3

distribute -5 throughout the Parentheses:

-30x+5= 3

move the constant to the right side and change it's sign:

-30x=3-5

calculate:

-30x= -2

Divide both sides by -30:

x = 1/15
