Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - 2(x + 3) = 8

4x - 2x - 6 = 8

2x - 6 = 8

2x = 14

x = 7

First step is to distribute -2 to x and 3, which equals -2x and -6

Second step is to subtract 4x - 2x, which equals 2x

Third step is to add -6 to 8, which equals 14

last step is to divide, 2x / 14, which equals 7

I hope this is correct

Travka [436]

Answer:

Price of rice per gram = $ 0.006 per gram or 0.6 cents per gram .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: David wants to make 10 servings, where each serving has 75 grams of rice.

Total quantity of rice required = 10 x 75 = 750 grams

Overall, David spends 4.50 dollars on rice.

i.e. cost of 750 grams of rice = 4.50 dollars

Price of rice per gram =(cost of 750 grams of rice ) ÷ 750

= (4.50 dollars ) ÷ 750

= $ 0.006 per gram.

Price of rice per gram = $ 0.006 per gram.
