Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+2=10 subtract 2 from each side

2x=8 divide each side by 2

x=4 is the correct solution.

Her error was most likely subtracting 2 from the left and adding 2 to the right

2x+2=10

2x=12

x=6

babunello [35]
(A) 450 ft squared.

First, calculate the old arena's dimensions. 
10 x 15 = 150.

Calculate the new arena's dimensions.
20 x 30 = 600.

Now subtract 150 from 600.
600 - 150 = 450.

The length of rectangular sign is 12 less than twice the width. Its perimeter is 114 ft. Find the length and the width of the si
Ymorist [56]

We have two relations between length and width. One is given in the problem statement. The other is given by the formula for perimeter. We can solve the two equations in two unknowns using substitution.

Let w and l represent the width and length of the sign in feet, respectively.

... l = 2w -12 . . . . . the length is 12 ft less than twice the width

... p = 2(l +w) = 114 . . . . the perimeter is 114 ft

Using the first equation for l, we can substitute for l in the second equation.

... 114 = 2((2w -12) +w)

... 114 = 6w -24 . . . . . . . . simpify

... 138 = 6w . . . . . . . . . . . add 24

... 23 = w . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 6

... l = 2w -12 = 2·23 -12 = 34 . . . . use the equation for l to find l

The length and width of the sign are 34 ft and 23 ft, respectively.

The distance traveled by a car moving at a constant speed varies directly with the length of time it travels. If the car travels
9966 [12]
First, we must find the unit rate in other words, we must find how much miles the car travels in 1 hour or vice-versa.
\frac{172  \: miles}{4 \:  hours}  =  \frac{43 \: miles}{1  \: hour}
Now, plug in the ten instead of a 1 in the proportion of,
\frac{43 \: miles}{1 \: hour}  =  \frac{430 \: miles}{10 \: hours}
This is simply because 1*10=10 and 43*10=430.
I hope this helps!!
