Expressions are arithmetical declarations that have at least two terms that contain figures or factors but which are linked by an intermediate operator. Adding, subtraction, multiplication, or division may well be the mathematical operators, and the further discussion can be defined as follows:

Given:

$\to \bold{4 -\frac{1}{2}(-8x + 6) = -5x - (-x + 10)}\\\\$

To find:

$\bold{x=?}\\\\$

Solution:

$\to \bold{4 -\frac{1}{2}(-8x + 6) = -5x -(-x + 10)}\\\\\to \bold{4 +\frac{8x}{2} - \frac{6}{2} = -5x +x - 10}\\\\\to \bold{4 +4x -3 = -5x +x - 10}\\\\\to \bold{4 +10 +4x +5x -x -3 = 0}\\\\\to \bold{11 +8x = 0}\\\\\to \bold{8x = -11}\\\\\to \bold{x =\frac{-11}{8}}\\\\$

So, the final answer is " $\bold{x =\frac{-11}{8}}$ ".

On a coordinate plane, a line goes through (negative 12, negative 2) and (0, negative 4). A point is at (0, 6).

mariarad [96]

Point (-12 , 8) is on the line that passes through (0, 6) and is parallel to the given line ⇒ 1st

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have:

Same slopes
Different y-intercepts

The formula of the slope of a line which passes through points $(x_{1},y_{1})$ and $(x_{1},y_{1})$ is $m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

∵ The given line passes through points (-12 , -2) and (0 , -4)

∴ $x_{1}$ = -12 , $x_{2}$ = 0

∴ $y_{1}$ = -2 , $y_{2}$ = -4

- Use the formula of the slope above to find the slope of the given line

∵ $m=\frac{-4-(-2)}{0-(-12)}=\frac{-4+2}{12}=\frac{-2}{12}=\frac{-1}{6}$

∴ The slope of the given line is $\frac{-1}{6}$

∵ The two lines are parallel

∴ Their slopes are equal

∴ The slope of the parallel line = $\frac{-1}{6}$

∵ The parallel line passes through point (0 , 6)

- The form of the linear equation is y = mx + b, where m is the slope

and b is the y-intercept (y when x = 0)

∵ m = $\frac{-1}{6}$ and b = 6

∴ The equation of the parallel line is y = $\frac{-1}{6}$ x + 6

Let us check which point is on the line by substitute the x in the equation by the x-coordinate of each point to find y, if y is equal the y-coordinate of the point, then the point is on the line

Point (-12 , 8)

∵ x = -12 and y = 8

∵ y = $\frac{-1}{6}$ (-12) + 6

∴ y = 2 + 6 = 8

- The value of y is equal the y-coordinate of the point

∴ Point (-12 , 8) is on the line

Point (-12 , 8) is on the line that passes through (0, 6) and is parallel to the given line

Pls answer 18 20 and 22 show your work

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

18- 300

20- 1,500

22- 300

Step-by-step explanation:

You can easily find the answer like this:

18. Multiply 60 and 100 together. The hundred is from 100%. After that, divide it by 20 because of the percent. After doing this, you should get 300.

20. 360*100=36,000 36,000/24= 1,500

22. 9*100=900 900/3=300

I hope this is what you were looking for. If you need more out of this, ask me to answer it again. :)
