(trying to isolate/get x by itself in the equation)
5(x + 6) = 50 Distributive property [distribute 5 into (x + 6)]
5x + 30 = 50 Subtraction [subtract 30 on both sides of the equation]
5x = 20 Division [divide 5 on both sides]
x = 4
Subtraction then division, the 2nd option
Answer:
14 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
There are several ways we can find the area. Probably the easiest is to cut the kite in half vertically and find the area of each triangle. The area of the kite will be double that.
The height of the kite is 7 units, and the width is 4 units. So each triangle will have a base of 7 and height of 2.
A = 1/2 bh
A = 1/2 (7) (2)
A = 7
The area of the kite is double that, so:
2A = 14
The answers for the problems are: 6. -18
9. 6
12. -40
Answer:
200 actual miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the actual distance by multiplying 50 by 4, since there are 50 miles in 1 inch.
50(4)
= 200
So, there are 200 actual miles between the two cities.
