\frac{2}{3} (6x + 1) =  - 24 \\  \\ 4x +  \frac{2}{3}  =  - 24 \\  \\ 4x =  - 24  -  \frac{2}{3}  \\  \\ 4x =  \frac{ - 72 - 2}{3}  \\  \\ 4x =  \frac{ - 74}{3}  \\  \\ x =  \frac{ - 74}{3}  \div 4 \\  \\ x =  \frac{ - 37}{6}  \\

X = 6.16

Carlton is solving a linear equation using the steps shown.
mario62 [17]

Answer:

D. Divide each side of the equation by –2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Carlton is solving a linear equation using the steps shown.

Equation: -4x+12=-6x

Step 1: Add 4x to both sides: 12=-6x+4x

Step 2: Combine like terms: 12=-2x

To solve our given equation we will divide both sides of our equation by -2.

\frac{12}{-2}=\frac{-2x}{2}

-6=x

Therefore, the next step Carlton needs to complete in order to solve the equation is divide each side of the equation by –2.

Delaney would like to make a 10 lb nut mixture that is 60% peanuts and and 40% almonds. She has several pounds of peanuts and se
vazorg [7]

Answer:

If there is "p" pounds of peanuts and "m" pounds of '20% peanuts and 80% almonds' mixture, then, we can get the following equations,

p + m = 10 -----------(1) and

4m/5 = 4 ------------(2)

whose solution is 5 lb peanuts and 5 lb mixture.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the mixture which Delaney wants to make there would be

\frac {10 \times 60}{100} lb

= 6 lb of peanuts

So, there will be (10 - 6) lb  

= 4 lb of almonds

If  Delaney has "p" pounds of peanuts and "m" pounds of the '20% peanuts and 80% almonds' mixture, then according to the question,

p + m = 10 -----------(1) and

4m/5 = 4 ------------(2)

So, from (2),

m = 5 --------------(3)

So, from (1) and (3) ,

p = (10 - 5) = 5
