Answer:

x=−2

Step-by-step explanation:

1 Expand.

6-2x-12=3x+4

6−2x−12=3x+4

2 Simplify  6-2x-126−2x−12  to  -2x-6−2x−6.

-2x-6=3x+4

−2x−6=3x+4

3 Add 2x2x to both sides.

-6=3x+4+2x

−6=3x+4+2x

4 Simplify  3x+4+2x3x+4+2x  to  5x+45x+4.

-6=5x+4

−6=5x+4

5 Subtract 44 from both sides.

-6-4=5x

−6−4=5x

6 Simplify  -6-4−6−4  to  -10−10.

-10=5x

−10=5x

7 Divide both sides by 55.

-\frac{10}{5}=x

-2=x

−2=x

9 Switch sides.

x=-2

x=−2

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are to project if a company is expected to make a profit or loss given the information in the question.

Let’s use the scenario of 50 gadgets produced.

1 is expected to be faulty, while 49 is thus expected to work perfectly.

Now, on this 49 sold, there is an expectancy of $3 profit. Hence, this means that for a batch of 50 gadgets produced, the amount of expected profit will be 49 * 3 = $147

The amount that would be used to repair the faulty unit is $80. If we subtract this from the total expected profit, we have $147-$80 = $67

Hence, per 50 gadgets sold, a total of $67 in profit is to be expected

This means profit is expected in the long tey
