Step-by-step explanation:
Replace each x in the expression/equation with the given value. Then use order of operations to simplify and solve. There are some great videos out there explaining the concept.
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
4x2=8
5x2=10
6x2=12
This answer is the closest to 12 but it doesn't go over 12, so this is less than or equal to 12
Answer:
x =4
Step-by-step explanation:
x/y = 1/2
(x + 2) / (y + 1) = 2/3
Cross multiply the first equation
2x = y
Put that value for y into the second equation.
(x + 2) / (2x + 1) = 2/3 Cross multiply
3(x + 2) = 2(2x + 1) Remove the brackets.
3x + 6 = 4x + 2 Subtract 3x from both sides
6 = 4x - 3x + 2
6 = x + 2 Subtract 2 from both sides
6-2 = x
x = 4
