Answer:
2*(b-6)=8
Explication:
1.divide both sides by 2
b - 6 = 4
2. move the constant to the right and change the sign
b= 4 + 6
3. Calculate
b= 10
Answer:
B) First, find two areas using (4m x 10m = 40m2) and (8m x 3m = 24m2). Next, add (40m2 + 24m2 = 64m2).
Step-by-step explanation:
Samuel should is looking to find the area of his basement in order to cover it with carpet.
An area is calculated by multiplying two dimensions (so answers A and D are not it).
Best solution is to divide the area into two large rectangles then ADD them together to get the total area.
The only scenario where he could have subtracted something based on his plan is if he would have multiplied the 10m by the 12m then subtracted the area that is not part of his basement (7mx8m). He would have achieved the same result of course, but by going a different way.
Answer:
x = 
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 8 to both sides;
4|4x - 3| = 4 4|4x - 3| = -4
Divide both sides by 4;
4x - 3 = 1 4x - 3 = -1
Add 3 to both sides;
4x = 4 4x = 2
Divide both sides by 4;
x = 1 x = 
Answer:
ok loll
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to be very careful how you set this up. For every girl (who counts as 1) there are 3 boys (who count as 3). The total number in the proportion is 3 + 1 =4. You are given a total, but that is both boys and girls. That's why you need the 4.
3/4 = x / 236 Cross multiply
4x = 3 * 236
4x = 708 Divide by 4
x = 708/4
x = 177
There are 177 boys at the school and 236 - 177 = 59 girls.
