Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

-7 - 3x = 1x + 4(2 + x)

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Distribute 4:                                                                                                    -7 - 3x = x + 8 + 4x
  2. Combine like terms:                                                                                       -7 - 3x = 5x + 8
  3. [Addition Property of Equality] Add 3x on both sides:                                -7 = 8x + 8
  4. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 8 on both sides:                      -15 = 8x
  5. [Division Property of Equality] Divide 8 on both sides:                               -15/8 = x
  6. Rewrite/Rearrange:                                                                                        x = -15/8

How do you solve 4(3-6n)-4n=-156
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

n = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

4(3-6n)-4n=-156   (by PEDMAS, solve parentheses first)

(4)(3) - (4)(6n) - 4n = - 156

12 - 24n - 4n = -156

12 - 28n = -156   (subtract 12 from both sides)

-28n = -156 - 12

-28n = -168  (divide both sides by -28)

n = -168 / (-28)

n = 6

A doctor treated 24, 27, 31, 19, 26, 15, and 19 patients during the past 7 days. Which is the median number of patients treated
Zigmanuir [339]
We are tasked to solve for the median of the doctor's patients during the last 7 days that he was on duty. The given numbers are the following:
24, 27, 31, 19, 26, 15 and 19

Solving for the median, we have:
Median = (24 + 27 + 31 + 19 + 26 + 15 + 19) / 7 days
Median = 23

The median is 23.
