Hey there! I'm happy to help!

First, let's use the distributive property to remove the parentheses. We multiply the number on the outside by each number on the inside.

3(2x-4)

We multiply the 3 by the 2x, giving us 6x, and we multiply the 3 by the -4, giving is -12.

4(x+1)

We do 4 times x which is 4x, and 4 by 1, which is 4.

This gives us this equation.

6x-12=4x+4

Now, we want to solve for x. We want to move all the numbers to the right side and all the x's to the left side so we can figure out what x is equal to.

6x-12=4x+4

We add 12 to both sides, canceling it out on one side and adds it to the other to keep the equation at the same value.

6x=4x+16

We subtract 4x from both sides.

2x=16

We divide both sides by 2.

x=8

Have a wonderful day! :D

That’s the number is written in standard scientific notation?
Nata [24]

Option D: 3.47*10^-7 is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to determine the number written in standard scientific notation, first of all we have to understand how the scientific numbers are written

the scientific numbers are written in the form of:

a*10^n

Here

a is a number between 1 and 10 while the value of n can be only integer (positive or negative)

so,

In the given options:

Option A has a number larger than 10 in place of a so it is not in standard notation

Option B has a number less than 1 in place of a  so it is also not in standard notation

Option C has a number larger than 10 in place of a so it is not in standard notation

Option D is in standard scientific notation as 1<3.47<10 and the power of 10 is integer

Hence,

Option D: 3.47*10^-7 is the correct answer

A merchant mixed 10 lb of a cinnamon tea with 2 lb of spice tea. The 12-pound mixture cost $19. A second mixture included 16 lb
zubka84 [21]

Hey there!!

Take the cinnamon tea as ' x ' and spice tea as ' y '

10 x + 2y = 19  -------------- ( 1 )

16x + 10y = 44 --------------- ( 2 )

Multiply the first equation by 5

50x + 10y = 95

16x + 10y = 44

Subtract the second equation from the first

34x = 51

x = 51 / 34

x = $1.5

Substitute this in any other equation

15 + 2y = 19

2y = 4

y = 2

Cinnamon = $1.5

Spice tea = $2

Hope helps!
