Negative 4 (2 x + 3) = 2 x + 6 minus (8 x + 2)

Mathematics
1 answer:
jekas [21]3 years ago

Answer:

x=−8

Step-by-step explanation:

−4(2x+3)=2x+6−(8x+2)

−4(2x+3)=2x+6+−1(8x+2) (Distribute the Negative Sign)

−4(2x+3)=2x+6+−1(8x)+(−1)(2)

−4(2x+3)=2x+6+−8x+−2

(−4)(2x)+(−4)(3)=2x+6+−8x+−2 (Distribute)

−8x+−12=2x+6+−8x+−2

−8x−12=(2x+−8x)+(6+−2) (Combine Like Terms)

−8x−12=−6x+4

−8x−12=−6x+4 Add 6x to both sides.

−8x−12+6x=−6x+4+6x

−2x−12=4 Add 12 to both sides.

−2x−12+12=4+12

−2x=16 Divide both sides by -2.

−2x

−2

=

16

−2

x=−8

I need help with this
VashaNatasha [74]
The answer is b. It cannot be c cause the answer would be a negative number. It cannot be a because there would be more than 100 lollipops altogether. And it cannot be d because the answer would be a fraction. There was 29 lollipops altogether. Hope this helps!

There are over 2700 species of snakes in the world over 600 are venomous Express the fraction of species that are not venomous a
Andre45 [30]
You do 600 divided by 2700 and you end up with 22/100 or 0.22 as a decimal. So if 0.22 or 22/100 are venimous then 78/100 or 0.78 are non venimous. I understand its a bit confusing and i can simplify it for you but still I hope this helps :)
