Divide each term by 6 and simplify.
x = −9
Answer:
(c) III
Step-by-step explanation:
If you simplify the equations and the left side is identical to the right side, then there are an infinite number of solutions: the equation is true for all values of x.
Another way to simplify the equation is to subtract the right side from both sides. If that simplifies to 0 = 0, then there are an infinite number of solutions.

<h3>I. </h3>
2x -6 -6x = 2 -4x . . . . eliminate parentheses
-4x -6 = -4x +2 . . . . no solutions (no value of x makes this true)
__
<h3>II.</h3>
x +2 = 15x +10 +2x . . . . eliminate parentheses
x +2 = 17x +10 . . . . one solution (x=-1/2)
__
<h3>III.</h3>
4 +6x = 6x +4 . . . . eliminate parentheses
6x +4 = 6x +4 . . . . infinite solutions
__
<h3>IV.</h3>
6x +24 = 2x -4 . . . . eliminate parentheses; one solution (x=-7)
Answer:
33%
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming the weight of the mixture to be 100g**, then the weight of ryegrass in the mixture would be 30g.
Also, assume the weight mixture X used in the mixture is Xg, then the weight of mixture Y used in the mixture would be (100-X)g.
So we can now equate the parts of the ryegrass in the mixture as:
0.4X + 0.25(100-X) = 30
<=> 0.4X + 25 - 0.25X = 30
<=> 0.15X = 5
<=> X = 5/0.15 = 500/15 = 100/3
So the weight of mixture X as a percentage of the weight of the mixture
= (weight of X/weight of mixture) * 100%
= (100/3)/100 * 100%
= 33%
