Answer:

Multiply 4 to the terms inside the parentheses.

(12x+8)-2

Remove the parentheses and equate it to zero.

12x+8-2 = 0

Simplify

12x+6 = 0

Transpose 6 to the other side.

12x = -6

Divide bith sides by 12.

12x/12 = -6/12

Simplify.

x = -6/12 or -½

Kevin is 3 years older than Daniel. Two years ago, Kevin was 4 times as old as Daniel. How old is Kevin now?

GuDViN [60]

Let k and d be the Kevin's age and the Daniel's age;
We have the equation:
k = 3 + d;
k - 2 = 4( d - 2 );
We have 3 + d - 2 = 4d - 8;
Then, d + 1 = 4d - 8;
9 = 3d;
d = 3.
Finally, k = 6 years.

If the force of 12n is applied to an object with a mass of 2k the object will accelerate what

astraxan [27]

I consider this physics

But, given that Newton's Second Law is F=ma and since you are given the mass and force, the acceleration can be easily calculated by isolating variable acceleration (a)

$F=ma$
$a = \frac{F}{m}$
$a= \frac{12 N}{2 kg}$
$a = 6 \frac{m}{s}$
