\huge \boxed{\mathbb{QUESTION} \downarrow}

  • By substitution, justify that x = − 6 is a solution to x − 2 = − x − 14.

\large \boxed{\mathbb{ANSWER\: WITH\: EXPLANATION} \downarrow}

First, let's substitute the value of x as -6 in the equation.

\tt \: x - 2 =  - x - 14 \\  \dashrightarrow \: \tt \:  ( - 6) - 2 =  - ( - 6) - 14

Now, let's solve it.

\tt \: ( - 6 ) - 2 = - ( - 6 ) - 14

Subtract 2 from -6 to get -8.

\tt \: -8=-\left(-6\right)-14

The opposite of -6 is 6.

\tt \: -8=6-14

Subtract 14 from 6 to get -8.

\tt \: -8=-8

Compare -8 and -8. We can see that both the LHS & RHS are equal to each other. So, hence we proved that <u>x = − 6 is a solution of x − 2 = − x − 14.</u>

I need help please I don’t understand this
aleksley [76]

Answer:

2. It is converted into heat and energy.

Explanation:

So every time an animal eats grass, or another animal it receives 10% of the energy that the previous animal/plant had. If a rabbit ate a carrot, 10 percent of the energy the carrot had in it, will go into the rabbit. the question is asking where the 90% energy from the eaten carrot went.

Answer Explanation:

Most of the energy that isn't stored in the animal/plant is lost as heat or is used up by the body as it digests the animal/plant that was eaten. This is because the animals who consume any of the plants/animals receiving the 10% energy take energy to eat the plant/animal. this takes up the other 90%

I hope this helps :))

Define cell transport
katrin [286]

Cell transport is movement of materials across cell membranes. Cell transport includes passive and active transport. Passive transport does not require energy whereas active transport requires energy to proceed. Passive transport proceeds through diffusion, facilitated diffusion and osmosis. The purpose of the transport proteins is to protect the cell's internal environment and to keep its balance of salts, nutrients, and proteins within a range that keeps the cell and the organism alive.
