Answer:

-8

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Simplify

2/3 (9x - 12) -6x —-> 2 (9x - 12) -6x/3

2. Distribute

2(9−12)/3 -6x

18x - 24/3 -6x

3. Find common denominator

18 −24/3 + 3(-6)x/3

4. Combine fractions with common denominator

18−24+3(−6)/3

5. Multiply the numbers

18−24+3(−6)/3 ——> 18−24−18/3

6. Combine like terms

18−24−18/3 ——> -24/3

7. Cancel terms that are in both the numerator and denominator

−24/3

−8

Maria's book is longer than Brandon's. The difference in the two book lengths is 56
Bingel [31]

Answer:

Maria's book is 202 pages long, Brandon's book is 146 pages long

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set this up with 2 variables: lets say that Maria's book length is x and Brandon's is y.

We can see that Maria's book is 56 pages longer than Brandon's and can come up with an equation:

x=y+56

We also see that their booklengths add up to 348, and can get:

x+y=348

From here, we solve for x and y. We can use substitution to find y.

x+y=348

(y+56)+y=348

2y=292

y=146

Here we plug in for x:

x=y+56

x=(146)+56

x=202

Therefor we get that Maria's book is 202 pages long, Brandon's book is 146 pages long

The answer is 5 (C)

This is because the triangle is an isosceles triangle meaning that both MN and ML are the same length and "5" would make them both 15.

If x = 2z and y = 3z, find z
LenKa [72]

Answer:36

Step-by-step explanation:

Let name the missing angle in the triangle w.

We know that x+z+w=180

We also know that z+w=3z=y.

That means that w=2z.

x=2z, so, 2z+2z+z=180

z=36

First off, AY GET OFF OF YOUTUBE BOI XD
Second off, since the area of the triangle is 21 square feet, you do 21/6, which equals 3.5. 
So you need to find (2x-1)= 3.5.
So the answer is 2.25.
