Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(-3+x)=-4

Use distributive property (Multiply -2 by -3 which gives you 6vand multiply -2 by x which gives you -2x )

6-2x=-4

Bring the 6 over to the other side

-2x=-4-6

-2x=-10

Divide both sides by -2 to get x by itself

x=5

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(-3+ x) = -4

Distribute

-2 * -3 + (-2) *x = -4

6 -2x = -4

Subtract 6 from each side

6 -2x-6 = -4-6

-2x = -10

Divide each side by -2

-2x/-2 = -10/-2

x = 5

Reggie can line a football field in 120 minutes. Rosalinda can line a football field in 80 minutes. If they work together, how m
wel

Answer:

48 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

Rosalinda can line the football field in 80 minutes

Reggie can line the football field in 120 minutes

Lets assume that if they work together, they will take T minutes to line the football field

Hence;

Thus in 1 minute, Rosalina can line 1/80 of the field where as Reggie can line 1/120 of the field

\frac{1}{T} =\frac{1}{120} +\frac{1}{80} \\\\\frac{1}{T} =\frac{2+3}{240}\\\\

The sum of the two fractions will represent the size of the field that can be lined in 1 minute.

\frac{1}{T} =\frac{5}{240} \\\\\frac{1}{T} =\frac{1}{48} \\T= 48

The reciprocal of the sum of the two fractions will represent the time taken for both Rosalinda and Reggie to line the field.

Answer ; It will take them 48 minutes for them to line the football field
