Answer:

The number is -4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be n.

Given:

Max adds 7 to a number.

hence it is given as n+7

Multiply's the sum by -4 the result is 3 times the same number.

Hence the equation can be written as;

-4(n+7)=3n

Now Solving the above equation to find value of n we get;

-4(n+7)=3n\\-4n-28=3n\\-4n-3n=28\\-7n=28\\n=\frac{28}{7}=-4

The value of n is -4.

Now when we add 7 to number -4 we get answer as 3.

And when the sum is multiplied by -4 we get answer -12.

Also 3 times of number is equal to 3 multiplied by -4 we get answer as -12.

Hence when the sum is multiplied by -4  it is equal to 3 times of same number.

Hence from above we can say that the number is -4.

Follow the steps to solve this equation. 3(2x + 6) – 4x = 2(5x – 2) + 6 1. Use the distributive property: 6x + 18 – 4x = 10x – 4
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

x=2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an equation 3(2x+6)-4x=2(5x-2)+6. We are supposed to solve our given equation step by step.

Step 1: Use the distributive property.

3\cdot 2x+3\cdot 6-4x=2\cdot 5x-2\cdot 2+6

6x+18-4x=10x-4+6

Step 2: Combine like terms.

6x-4x+18=10x-4+6

2x+18=10x+2

Step 3: Use subtraction property of equality:

2x-2x+18-2=10x-2x+2-2

16=8x

Step 4: Use the division property of equality:

\frac{16}{8}=\frac{8x}{8}

2=x

Therefore, the solution of our given equation is x=2.

The blueprint for a new swimming pool uses the scale 3/4 inch = 2 feet. If the actual dimensions of the pool will be 8 ft wide b
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

The dimensions of the pool on the blueprint would be 3 in wide by 4.5 in long.

Step-by-step explanation:

First I turned 3/4 into a decimal, which would be 0.75. The I divided the dimensions of the pool by two. This way I could multiply the .75 by how many sets of two feet there were in the dimensions. Finally I multiplied 4 by .75 and I multiplied 6 by .75. That is how I found my answer.

A rectangle has an area of 3 3/4 square feet. the length is 1 1/2 . what is the width
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

The answer is 2  1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

First you turn 3 3/4 into an improper fraction .To do that you multiply the denominator x the whole number + the numerator = 4x3=12 +3=15/4.

Then you turn 1 1/2 into an improper fraction .To do that you multiply the denominator x the whole number + the numerator =2x1+1=3/2

15/4 divided by 3/2 but get your answer you have to reverse 3/2 into 2/3 and you multiply instead of dividing .

15/4 x 2/3 =15 x2 = 30 , 4x3=12  so your answer will be 30/12 but it can be simplified because they are both multiple of 6 . So , 30 divided by 6 = 5 and 12 divided by 6 = 2 so then you answer is 5/2 but it is an improper fraction so you divide 5 by 2 and you get 2 and a remainder of 1/2=2 1/2

yaroslaw [1]

Hey!

Diameter is ½ of the radius. To find the radius when you have the diameter, divide by 2.

For example, if the diameter is 12, the the radius would be:

12 \div 2 = 6

<em>That means your answer will be C.</em>
