Answer:

  • add x to both sides
  • divide both sides by 4
  • add 20 to both sides
  • divide both sides by 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Your steps in order would be ...

  • add x to both sides
  • divide both sides by 4
  • add 20 to both sides
  • divide both sides by 3

__

Executing these steps, we get ...

  4(3x -20) = 16 . . . . . add x

  3x -20 = 4 . . . . . . . . divide by 4

  3x = 24 . . . . . . . . . . .add 20

  x = 8 . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3, giving the solution

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

If you were to distribute the 4 first, you would have ...

  12x -80 -x = 16 -x

Now, you can add x and add 80 to get ...

  12x -80 = 16

  12x = 96

Then dividing by 12 gives ...

  x = 8

You will notice that these steps do not match steps available in your list.

Distribute 4 to get 12x-20
Add x to both sides
Add 20 to both sides
Divide both sides by 12

Answer:

y - 6 = (-1/2)(x - 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

As we go from (4, 6) to (6, 10), x (the run) increases by 2 and y (the rise) increases by 4.  Thus, the slope of the line connecting these two points is m = rise / run = 4/2 = 2.

The slope of a line perpendicular to this one is the negative reciprocal of 2, which is -1/2.

Using the point-slope formula, we get the following equation for the perpendicular line:

y - 6 = (-1/2)(x - 4)   (  obtained using the point (4, 6)  )

What is the estimated temperature if the dissolved salt is 98g?<br><br> 54<br> 61<br> 161<br> 171
madreJ [45]

Ths solubility curve is used to show the amount of salt dissolved (solubility).

<h3>What is the solubility curve?</h3>

The solubility curve is a depiction of the solubility of a substance plotted against its temperature. It can be used most times to show the solubility of a susbtance at different temperatures. This question is incomplete hence so we can not be able to obtain the solubility of the salt at this temperature.

If the solubility curve has been shown in the graph, then we can be able to obtain the solubility of the salt from the data shown on the plot.

5x + 2y = 7<br> –2x + 2y = –14
Anuta_ua [19.1K]
5x + 2y = 7....multiply by -1
-2x + 2y = -14
----------------
-5x - 2y = -7 (result of multiplying by -1)
-2x + 2y = -14
---------------add
-7x = - 21
x = -21/-7
x = 3

5x + 2y = 7
5(3) + 2y = 7
15 + 2y = 7
2y = 7 - 15
2y = - 8
y = -8/2
y = -4

solution is (3,-4)

Why does dividing by 100 shift each digit two places to the right?
alekssr [168]
The answer is D. If you divide 1000 by 100, it is 10. 10 is equal to 1/100 of its previous value of 1000.

a rectangular prism with a volumen of 10 cubic units is filled with cubes with side lengths of 1/2 unit​
algol13

40

I assumed that you wanted to know how much little cubes are in the big cubes...so.....first you need to find out the volume of the small cube : 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/4....then divide it with 10, then results with 40! :D
