Answer: x = -1

Work:

-(x + 6)
-x - 6


-2 + 3x = -x - 6

Put x to one side of the equation. This one will be on the left side. Add x to do so.

-2 + 4x = -6


Isolate x by adding 2.


4x = -4


Divide by 4 to isolate x for the final time.

Kim purchased a dress that was originally $35. It was on sale for 30% off. She also bought a pair of shoes for 1/2 off the origi
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:  $34.32

Step-by-step explanation: We first calculate the price of the dress that was on sale. 30% of 35 is 35/10 x3. This is equal to 3.5x3 which is 7+3.5 = 10.5 We subtract this from 35 to get $24.5. So, the dress cost $24.5. Next 1/2 of 17 is 8.5. In total, the items cost $24.5+$8.5 = $33. Then, there is a 4% sales tax we have to add on to 33. 1% of 33 is 33/100 which is 0.33. This time 4 is 1.32. 33+1.32 is 34.32.

An animal shelter has $2500 in its reserve fund. The shelter charges $40 per animal placement and would like to have at least $4
densk [106]

Answer:

Step 1

Write and solve the inequality:

2,500 + 40a ≥ 4,000, or 40a ≥ 1,500

a ≥ 37.5

Step 2

If the shelter places 30 cats and 10 dogs,

or 40 animals, that will be enough to meet

its goal, because a = 40 is a solution to the

inequality a ≥ 37.5.

What is the equation x^2+12x-3=16 written in the form (x-p)^2=q using the method of completing the square ?
Alexus [3.1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

{x}^{2}  + 12x -  3 = 16

{x}^{2}  + 12x = 19

{x}^{2}  + 12x + 36 = 19 + 36

(x + 6) {}^{2}  = 55
