Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x + 4 = 6x - 12

First add 2x to each side: 4=6x−12+2x

Now simplify 6x-12+2x: 4=8x-12

add 12 to both sides: 4+12=8x

Simplify 4+12: 16=8x

Divide both sides by 8: 16/8

you end up with x=2

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x+4=6x-12  Add 2x to both sides.

<u>+2x    +2x</u>

4=8x-12         Add 12 to both sides.

<u>+12  +12</u>

16=8x            Divide by 8 on both sides.

<u>/8 /8</u>

2=x

Hope this helps you out and have a great day (~^▽^)~

Grace is three times as old as Hans, but in 5 years she will be twice as old as Hans is then. How old are they now? Set up an th
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

3x - y = 0; 2x - y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the present age of Hans and y be the present age of Grace,

Since, in present Grace is three times as old as Hans,

⇒ y = 3x

⇒ 3x - y = 0

Now, after 5 years,

The age of Hans = x + 5,

And, the age of Grace = y + 5

Also, in 5 years Grace will be twice as old as Hans is then,

⇒ y + 5 = 2 ( x + 5 )

⇒ y + 5 = 2x + 10

⇒ 2x - y = -5

Hence, the required system of linear equations is,

3x - y = 0; 2x - y = -5
