Step-by-step explanation:
so to distribute you have to times -2 by -6x, -2 by 3y, and -2 by -1.
I hope you know that negative times a negative equals positive. (-) x (-) = +
The answer will then be 12x - 6y + 2.
Pls, let me know if that helps. ;)
Is there a picture? or something
Answer= -54
-2(bx-5)=16
If b is 3, then it changes to -2(3x-5)=16
We want to find x, right? Then we must do -2•3x and -2(-5). The result would be -6x and 10.
Then again, the equation would change -6x+10=16
Which would be -6x=6
Is x=6/6
And then x would be 1
Please tell me what I did wrong and if it is wrong, comment on this and I’ll fix my mistake!^^
This question is easier than it seems. If there are 9 consecutive integers with the mean being 16, then 16 must be the median. So just add four on top and four below 16 to give you your range of 9 values, 12-20. 12+13+14+15+16+17+18+19+20=144, 144/9=16. So the mean of the first four numbers is (12+13+14+15)/4= 13.5. If you check, 13.5 is also the median of these four numbers.
