Solve for x. 24= -4(x-1)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Marina CMI [18]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:24 = 24x

Step-by-step explanation:Cross multiply:

2 * 12 = x * 24

Simplifying

2 * 12 = x * 24

Multiply 2 * 12

24 = x * 24

Reorder the terms for easier multiplication:

24 = 24x

Solving

24 = 24x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-24x' to each side of the equation.

24 + -24x = 24x + -24x

Combine like terms: 24x + -24x = 0

24 + -24x = 0

Add '-24' to each side of the equation.

24 + -24 + -24x = 0 + -24

Combine like terms: 24 + -24 = 0

0 + -24x = 0 + -24

-24x = 0 + -24

Combine like terms: 0 + -24 = -24

-24x = -24

Divide each side by '-24'.

x = 1

Simplifying

x = 1

Which shows 0.00234 written in scientific notation?
topjm [15]
It’s D


the reason why is because the multiplier must be between 1 and 10
(
1
≤
x
≤
10
)
so first more your decimal there which you get:
2.34
then just count how many numbers the decimal jumped, if the decimal moved left the exponent is positive and if it moved right, as in your number, the exponent is negative

yours moved 3

the 43rd term of an arithmetic sequence is -671 and the 52nd term is -806. find the first term and the common difference.
Bond [772]

Answer:

First term = -41.

Common difference = -15.

Step-by-step explanation:

nth term: an = a1 + (n - 1)d  where a = first term and d = the common difference.

-671 = a1 + (43 - 1)d

-806 = a1 +(52 - 1)d

-671  = a1 + 42d

-806 = a1 + 51d

Subtracting ( to eliminate a1):

-671 - (-806) = 42d - 51d

-9d =  135

d = -15

Substitute for d in the first equation:

-671 = a1 + 42*-15

-671 = a1 - 630

a1 = -671 + 630 = -41.

What is the equation of the line parallel to the given line with an X intercept of 4
mixas84 [53]

You haven't shared the given line, so all I can do here is to invent a line and then show you how to write the equation of a new line which is parallel to mine and which has an x-intercept of 4.


My invented line: y = (2/3)x + 3


The new line MUST have the same slope: m = 2/3.


Then y = mx + b becomes y = (2/3)x + b. Find the x-intercept by setting y = 0 and solving for x: (2/3)x = 0 - b. Now replace x with 4 and find b:


-b = (2/3)(4) = 8/3. Then b = -8/3, and the new line is


y = (2/3)x - 8/3.
