Answer:

<h2>\boxed{\bold{x \ = \ 2}}</h2>

Explanation:

3(x + 6) = 24

  • <em>Simplify both sides of the equation</em>

3(x + 6) = 24

(3)(x) + (3)(6) = 24 (Distribute)

3x + 18 = 24

  • <em>Subtract 18 from both sides</em>

3x + 18 − 18 = 24 − 18

3x = 6

  • <em>Divide both sides by 3</em>

3x / 3 = 6 / 3

  • \bold{x \ = \ 2}

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Remeber this rule: <u><em>PEMDAS</em></u>

Even though parantheses comes first, we must take away 3 By dividing (since 3 is currently multiplying with x+6). Picture it like a ‘tail,’ and you must take the tail away first. so it would look like this:

3 ÷ 3 (x+6) = 24÷3

3 ÷ 3 cancels out, and 24 ÷ 3 equals 8, so now your equation becomes:

x + 6 = 8

now, we subtract 6 (since it is adding with x)

x + 6 - 6 = 8 - 6

positive 6 and negative 6 (aka 6-6) cancel out, and 8 - 6 = 2, so x = 2

hAVE A WONDERFUL DAY!!!

if this helped you, please heart and rate :)

Can someone plz do the dimensional analysis for 32ft/6.45 sec to meters/min? Thank You!
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

About 90.73 meters/min.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimensional analysis is done by multiplying the wanted unit over the current unit in equal measure, or the other way around.

First, we will convert feet to meters, using that 1 ft = .4048 m.

32ft/6.45sec * .3048m/1ft = 32/6.45sec * .3048m = 9.7536m/6.45 sec.

Second, we convert seconds to minutes, using that 60 sec = 1 min.

9.7536m/6.45sec * 60sec/1min = 9.7536*60m/6.45min ≈ 90.7311627m/min.
