-3x = 21
Divide -3 from both sides and you get x = -7

1/3x = 6
Divide 1/3 from both sides and you get x = 18

-1/2x = -7
Divide -1/2 from both sides and you get x = 14 (you get a positive answer from 2 negatives)

Dividing 1/3 is just multiplying by 3, and dividing -1/2 is just multiplying by -2

Answer:

A. 4(x + 8) = 56

Step-by-step explanation:

the correct equation would be 4(x + 8) = 56

because we need to find the number of hours on Saturday, since there Sheldon gets paid $4 per hour, we must subtract the amount Sheldon made on Sunday by the total he made and then divide that by 4 to get the number of hours on Saturday

$4 = number of dollars per hour

$56 = total on Saturday and Sunday

8 hours = Number of hours babysat on Sunday

x = hours spent on Saturday

4(x + 8) = 56

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

4(x + 8) = 56

(4)(x) + (4)(8) = 56(Distribute)

4x + 32 = 56

Step 2: Subtract 32 from both sides.

4x + 32 − 32 = 56 − 32

4x = 24

Step 3: Divide both sides by 4.

4x/4 = 24/4

x = 6

To check if this is correct, we add the amount Sheldon earned on Saturday to the amount he earned on Sunday, which is

6(4) + 8(4) = 56

24 + 32 = 56

56 = 56

or you could substitute the answer in the problem

4(6 + 8) = 56

Distribute

24 + 32 = 56

Simplify

56 = 56

Graph f(x)=-2x^2-12x-21
ELEN [110]

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the vertex. The x coordinate is -b/2a, or 12/-4=-3. Plug this back in to get -18+36-21 or -3, so the vertex is (-3, -3). Now, slowly make the x -2, -1, 0, 1, on and on. Because parabolas are symmetric along the vertex, they will have the same values as -4, -5, -6, on and on.

Joaquin and Trisha are playing a game in which the lower median wins the game. Their scores are shown below. Joaquin's scores: 7
alekssr [168]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Joaquin's score is 75,72,85,62,58,91

and Trisha's score is 92,90,55,76,91,74

Arranging score in order of value we get

Joaquin's : 58,62,72,75,85,91

Trisha's : 55,74,76,90,91,92

as no of values is even therefore their median is

Joaquin's=\frac{72+75}{2}=73.5

Trisha's =\frac{76+90}{2}=83

Therefore median of Joaquin's is lower

Thus Joaquin wins the game
