4(a-2)=3(a+4)
4a-8=3a+12
a=20
The other number is -3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1; First we develop formulae for the given information. A number is added with 3 and the resulting sum is multiplied by 4. This number is then divided by 2 and the quotient is 0. Assume the unknown number is x, then the given information is as follows
The quotient of
is 0. So
= 0.
Step 2; Now we solve the above equation. The denominator is taken to the RHS and the RHS remains zero.
= 0, 4(x+3)= 0, 4x+ 12 = 0, 4x = -12, x =
= -3.
So the other number is -3.
1. C) The amount that something can hold. Usually means volume, such as milliliters (ml) or liters (l) in Metric, or pints or gallons in Imperial.
It is the amount something can hold.
3,000 is 10 times as much as
3000 = 10 times of what number
We need to find 10 times what number gives us 3000
Let the unknown number be x
3000 = 10 times x
3000 = 10x
To solve for x, we divide by 10 on both sides

300 = x
So, the unknown number is 300
3000 = 10 times 300
3000 is 10 times as much as 300
The largest change in temperature was between July and March/April
