To simplify, you must distribute the 2 into the 5x and -4 by multiplying 2 with 5x and 2 with -4.
<span>2(5x – 4) + 3x
2 x 5x = 10x
2 x -4 = -8
You will get 10x - 8 + 3x
Now you must combine like terms or add like terms. In this case we must add 10x and 3x
10x + 3x = 13x
Finally the answer would be 13x - 8</span>
Answer:
3/24 or .125%
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = - 36
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that y varies inversely as x then the equation relating them is
y =
← k is the constant of variation
To find k use the condition y = 27 when x = 12, then
k = yx = 27 × 12 = 324, thus
y =
← is the equation of variation
When y = - 9, then
- 9 =
( multiply both sides by x )
- 9x = 324 ( divide both sides by - 9 )
x = - 36
444 divided by 3 equals 148
