Answer:
x = - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
6(3x + 4) = 4x - 4 ← distribute parenthesis on left side
18x + 24 = 4x - 4 ( subtract 4x from both sides )
14x + 24 = - 4 ( subtract 24 from both sides )
14x = - 28 ( divide both sides by 14 )
x = - 2
Start by converting to like terms, so convert 1/2 to 2/4.
Next, look at the problem. You are adding a negative, which is the same as subtracting, so your new problem looks like this: 2/4 - 3/4.
If you take 3/4 from 2/4, you are left with -1/4. This is your final answer!
We need to find 30% of 20 gallons.
1) We can write a proportion
20 gallons ---- 100%
x gallons --------30%
x = 20*30/100 = 6 gallons
2) Or we can write 30% as decimal.
30% = 30/100 = 0.3
0.3 of 20 = 0.3*20 =6 gallons
Answer 6 gallons are used efficiently.
