<span>6( 5-8x) +12= -54
30-48x+12=-54 this comes from distributing(multiplying) 6x5 and 6 times -8x
30+12-48x=-54 you have to add the coefficients 30+12
42-48x=-54
-42 -42
-----------------------
-48x=-96 divide by -48
x=2</span>
Answer:
3.6 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve, create a Rate, Time, Work chart:
Work is rate times time. For Kevin, his work is going to equal x over 6 job. For Anna, her expression for work will equal x over 9 job.
The work is 1 job of calling all clients, so their combined work is equal to 1.
x over 6 plus x over 9 equals 1
In the rational equation, x is the amount of time it takes Kevin and Anna to call the clients together. With rational equations, the terms can be added together once they have common denominators.
x over 6 plus x over 9 equals 1
fraction numerator begin display style x left parenthesis 9 right parenthesis end style over denominator begin display style 6 left parenthesis 9 right parenthesis end style end fraction plus fraction numerator begin display style x left parenthesis 6 right parenthesis end style over denominator begin display style 9 left parenthesis 6 right parenthesis end style end fraction equals fraction numerator begin display style 1 left parenthesis 6 right parenthesis left parenthesis 9 right parenthesis end style over denominator left parenthesis 6 right parenthesis left parenthesis 9 right parenthesis end fraction
fraction numerator 9 x over denominator 54 end fraction plus fraction numerator 6 x over denominator 54 end fraction equals 54 over 54
9 x plus 6 x equals 54
15 x equals 54
x equals 3.6
If Kevin and Anna work together, they can call all the clients in 3.6 hours.
Your answer is going to be letter D.)?
Hey there! :D
Let's find what Cheyenne runs in 10 minutes.
Divide 5.6 by 4.
5.6/4= 1.4
Multiply that by 6. (there are 60 minutes in an hour)
1.4*6= 8.4
"B" is the answer.
I hope this helps!
