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: The question is incomplete
Step-by-step explanation: The answer to this question cannot be determined correctly since an important detail is missing.
However, let me explain how you would normally go about it by using an example of mine. If for example the ratio of yes votes to no votes was 8 to 5, and the question requires you to calculate how many yes votes were there as indicated in your question, then the first step would be to find the total number of both sides of the ratio. That is add 8 to 5 which gives you 13. This means if there was a total of 13 votes cast, every yes vote stands for 8 out of 13 votes and every no vote stands for 5 out of 13 votes.
To express it mathematically, every yes vote would be 8/13 of the total (12779) and every no vote would be 5/13 of the total (12779).
Therefore to determine how many yes votes there was, is calculated as follows;
Let yes votes be y and no votes be x'
y = (8/13) * 12779
y = 102232/13
y = 7864
<em>Based on my example that the ratio of yes votes to no votes is 8 to 5, </em>
Then the number of yes votes was 7,864.
AB is bisected by CD (TRUE). This is True because E is the midpoint between A and B and CD passes through E
CD is bisected by AB (FALSE) CD is bisected by point F and not AB
AE = 1/2 * AB (TRUE) since E is the midpoint of AB , E divides AB into two equal halves
EF = 1/2 * ED (FALSE) The true statement would have been CF = 1/2* CD
FD = EB (FALSE) sinc we do not know if CD and AB are of the same lengths
CE + EF = ED (TRUE) since F is the midpoint the sum of CE and EF is equal to ED
Answer:
a=-36
Step-by-step explanation:
1/6(a+12)=-4
1) Distribute <u>1/6</u> to a and 12:
1/6a+2=-4
2) Subtract 2 from both sides:
1/6a=-6
3) Multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 1/6: (6/1)
a=-36
Let me know if you have any confusion on how I reached the solution :)
