Your going to be using the distributive property for this question.
So after you have distributed the 2 to the X and the -4 , you are left with 2x-8=-24
Next, add the 8 to the -24
So your left with 2x=16
Lastly, divide 16/2

Your answer should be x=8
Hope this helped!

<span>-24=2(x-4) 
Use distributive property
-24=2x-8
Add 8 to both sides
-16=2x
Divide 2 on both sides

dem82 [27]

Answer:

340

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see in the sample that 18/50 people bring lunches to school. If we divide 18 by 50 we get 0.36 now we know that 36% of people bring their lunches in the sample. Now we take that number and multiply it by 942.

0.36*942= 339.12 which we can round to 340

Simplify the expression. (d² - d+5) - (-d² + d + 5)​
AysviL [449]

Answer: 2d^2-2d

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\Rightarrow (d^2-d+5)-(-d^2+d+5)\\\Rightarrow (d^2+d^2)-d-d+5-5=0-2d+0\\\Rightarrow 2d^2-2d=2d(d-1)

If triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEC, find the values of x and y.
Mumz [18]

The values are x=8 and y=35, if the given ΔABC and ΔDEC are equal, it is obtained by Pythagoras theorem.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given are,

           From ΔABC,

                    AB= 6

                    BC= 10

                    AC = x

           From ΔDEC,

                    CD= 28

                    DE= 21

                    CE = y

Step:1

        Pythagoras theorem from  ΔABC,

                    BC^{2}=AB^{2} + AC^{2}...............(1)

       Substitute the values,

                   10^{2} = 6^{2} + AC^{2}

                  100 = 36 + AC^{2}

                   AC^{2} = 100 - 36

                           = 64

                    AC = \sqrt{64}

                    AC = 8

                  AC = x = 8

Step:2

        Pythagoras theorem for ΔDEC,

               CE^{2} = CD^{2}  + DE^{2}................(2)

       From the values,

              CE^{2} = 28^{2} + 21^{2}

             CE^{2} = 784 + 441

                     = 1225

              CE = \sqrt{1225}

              CE = 35

             CE = y = 35

Result:

         The values are x=8 and y=35, if the given ΔABC and ΔDEC are equal.
