Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

(4 · x) - (4 · 6) + 6 = 6x - 2

4x - 24 + 6 = 6x - 2

4x - 18 = 6x - 2

Isolate x.

4x = 6x - 2 + 18

4x = 6x + 16

4x - 6x = 16

-2x = 16

x = 16 ÷ -2

x = -8

I hope this helps! :)

Answer:

-8 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

4(x - 6) + 6 = 6x-2​

Distribute the 4

4x - 24 +6 = 6x-2

Combine like terms

4x - 18 = 6x-2

Subtract 4x from each side

4x-18-4x = 6x-2-4x

-18 = 2x-2

Add 2 to each side

-18+2 = 2x-2+2

-16 = 2x

Divide each side by 2

-16/2 =2x/2

-8 =x

Solve the compound inequality 6b < 42 or 4b + 12 > 8.
sukhopar [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

6b < 42 or 4b + 12 > 8

6b < 42

= 6b/6 < 42/6

= b < 7

4b + 12 > 8

=4b - 12 + 12 < -12+8

= 4b > - 12 + 8

= 4b > -4

= 4b/4 = -4/4

b > -1

so

7 > b > -1

Neko [114]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

  • <em>Each of the seven happy clowns has a red nose.</em>

This means there are (15-7) 8 sad clowns.

  • <em>Five of the sad clowns have red noses. </em>

This means out of 8 sad clowns, 5 have red noses. So the clowns that have to act sad and have red noses are (8-5) 3.
