X= -15
First, we want to combine like terms.
4x-10=20+6x
Subtract 4x from both sides
-10=20+2x
Subtract 20 from both sides
-30=2x
Divide by 2 to isolate the variable
X= -15
Answer:
2m+3r-2x-2y
Step-by-step explanation:
2m+3r=2m+3r
-2×x=-2x
-2×y=-2y
answer=2m+3r-2x-2y
Answer:
C. 1.2x
Step-by-step explanation:
He pays 1 x for his haircut, and an additional 20% on top of that, or an additional 0.2x. If you write that as an expression, you can simplify it like this:
You can also work it out by multiplying by 1.2 as stated in answer C. If his haircut costs $10, adding a 20% tip of $2 is the same as multiplying by 1.2.
Look at it this way:
-- Since the two groups have the ratio of 4 to 7, then the first group has 4 parts
and the other group has 7 parts.
-- If the first group has 4 parts and the other group has 7 parts, then they have
11 parts all together.
-- Those 11 parts are all parts of 33. There must be ( 33 / 11 ) = 3 items in each part.
Now you can go back to the groups . . .
-- The first group has 4 parts.
With 3 items in each part, that's (4 x 3) = 12 items.
-- The other group has 7 parts.
With 3 items in each part, that's (7 x 3) = 21 items.
Answer:
The length of the sides of the triangle are as follow: Two sides are 14.4 inches long and the shortest is 7.2 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
P = 36in // perimeter of triangle
P = A + B + C //equation for perimeter of a triangle
A = B or B = A //Showing that two sides are equal in length
A = 2C and B = 2C //Showing that the two equal sides are each doubled of the shortest side
C = A/2 and C = B/2 //Showing the same thing as the top, but in terms of the shortest side
Solve for C //First we solve for the shortest side as it's easiest
36 = A + B + C
36 = 2C + 2C + C //Use substitution for A and B
36 = 5C
C = 7.2in
Solve for A
A = 2C
A = 2(7.2) //Use what we solved for C
A = 14.4in
Solve for B
B = A
B = 14.4in //Same as A
Check Work
P = A + B + C
P = 14.4 + 14.4 + 7.2
P = 36
