2(4-5x)=2(3x+2)
8-10x=6x+4
Subtract 4 on both sides
4-10x=6x
Add 10x to both sides
4=16x
Divide both sides by 16
0.25=X

Check

2(4-5x)=2(3x+2)
2(4-5(0.25))=2(3(0.25)+2)
2(4-1.25)=2(0.75+2)
2(2.75)=2(2.75)
5.50=5.50

I need help on number 16 these instructions say to solve these equations by cross multiplying
Grace [21]

Answer:

  15.  x = 4

  16.  a = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

"Cross multiply" essentially means "multiply both sides of the equation by the product of the denominators."

__

<h3>15.</h3>

  \dfrac{x}{6}=\dfrac{2}{3}\\\\3(x)=6(2)\qquad\text{"cross multiply"}\\\\\boxed{x=4}\qquad\text{divide by 3}

This is an example of a problem in which cross-multiplying introduces the need for an extra step: divide by 3. Had we simply multiplied by the denominator of the x-term, we would have been finished in one step:

  x = 6(2/3) = 4

That is, rather than multiplying by the <em>product of the denominators</em>, sometimes the problem can be solved more easily if you multiply by their <em>least common multiple</em>.

__

<h3>16.</h3>

  \dfrac{a+1}{a+5}=\dfrac{a-4}{a-1}\\\\(a-1)(a+1)=(a+5)(a-4)\qquad\text{"cross multiply"}\\\\a^2-1=a^2+a-20\qquad\text{simplify}\\\\\boxed{19=a}\qquad\text{add $20-a^2$}

There are two spinners. The first spinner has three equal sectors labeled 1, 2 and 3. The second spinner has four equal sectors
sladkih [1.3K]
Given that the first spinner has three equal sectors labelled 1, 2 and 3; and the second spinner has equal sectors labelled 3, 4, 5 and 6.

The number of possible outcomes that do not show a 1 on the first spinner is 2 (i.e. the first spinner shows 2 or 3).

The number of possible outcomes that the second spinner show the number 4 is 1 (i.e. the second spinner shows 4)

In probability, the word 'and' goes with multiplication.

Therefore, <span>the number of possible outcomes that do not show a 1 on the first spinner and show the number 4 on the second spinner</span> is given by 2 x 1 = 2 possible outcomes.

i.e. the first spinner shows the number 2 and the second spinner shows the number 4 or the first spinner shows the number 3 and the second spinner shows the number 4.
