Answer:
x = 14/3
Step-by-step explanation:
4(2x-3)+8(x-4)=2(2x+6)
Distribute
8x -12 +8x - 32 = 4x +12
Combine like terms
16x -44 = 4x+12
Subtract 4x
16x-4x -44 = 4x+12-4x
12x -44 =12
Add 44 to each side
12x-44+44 = 12+44
12x = 56
Divide each side by 12
12x/12 = 56/12
x = 14/3
Take the root of both sides and solve.

We can calculate EEE, the amount of euros that has the same value as DDD U.S. Dollars, using the equation
E= 17/20 D
a) How many euros have the same value as 1 U.S. Dollar? euros
b) How many U.S. Dollars have the same value as 1 euro? dollars
Answer:
a) 0.85 euros
b) 1.18 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation is given as:
E= 17/20 D
a) How many euros have the same value as 1 U.S. Dollar? euros
E = 17/20D
D = 1 dollar
Hence:
E = 17/20 × 1
E = 0.85 euros
b) How many U.S. Dollars have the same value as 1 euro? dollars
E = 17/20D
E = 1 euro
1 = 17/20D
D = 1 ÷ 17/20
D = 1 × 20/17
D = 1.1764705882 dollars
D = 1.18 dollars
Answer:
1. 0.8 cm
2. 1.6 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
1.
The scale for 2nd map is 1 cm to 50 km, that means "1 cm on map" is "50 km in real life".
We already know distance from Cleveland to Cincinnati is 40 km, which is less than 50, so we know the distance on map would be less than 1 cm.
So we set up ratio and figure out (let x be distance on map from Cleveland to Cincinnati):

Hene, 0.8 centimeters would be the distance in 2nd map
2.
A scale of 1:50 means 1 cm equal 50 cm
So, 0.8m would be
0.8 * 100 = 80 cm
Hence, 80 cm would be represented by 80/50 on the map, that is:

That is 1.6 centimeters
