Solve for x:
4 (6 x + 1) - 3 (4 x + 3) = 43
-3 (4 x + 3) = -12 x - 9:
-12 x - 9 + 4 (6 x + 1) = 43
4 (6 x + 1) = 24 x + 4:
24 x + 4 - 12 x - 9 = 43
Grouping like terms, 24 x - 12 x - 9 + 4 = (24 x - 12 x) + (4 - 9):
(24 x - 12 x) + (4 - 9) = 43
24 x - 12 x = 12 x:
12 x + (4 - 9) = 43
4 - 9 = -5:
12 x + -5 = 43
Add 5 to both sides:
12 x + (5 - 5) = 5 + 43
5 - 5 = 0:
12 x = 43 + 5
43 + 5 = 48:
12 x = 48
Divide both sides of 12 x = 48 by 12:
(12 x)/12 = 48/12
12/12 = 1:
x = 48/12
The gcd of 48 and 12 is 12, so 48/12 = (12×4)/(12×1) = 12/12×4 = 4:
Answer: x = 4
rounding to the nearest tenth will be 20
= Let Martina's cousin's age be = n
= Let her age be = n+12
After four years,
Cousin's age = n+4
Her age = n+12+4=n+16
But according to the question her age = 3(n+4) = 3n+12
Thus,
3n+12=n+16
3n-n=16-12
2n=4
n=4/2
Thus ,
Her cousin's present age = n = 2
Her cousin's present age = n = 2Her present age = n+12 = 2+12=14
assuming that 0.94 is in inches, in centimeters its 2.3876
Step-by-step explanation:
x²-8x+15= 0
x²-2*1*4*x+ 16-1=0
x²-2*1*4*x+4² = 1
(x-4)² = 1
x-4 =1 or x-4= -1
x= 5 or x=3
so the solutions are 5 and 3
r²+18r+56=0
r²+2*1*9*r+ 81-25=0
r²+2*1*9*r+9² = 25
(r+9)² = 25
r+9 = 5 or r+9 = -5
r= -4 or r = -14
so the solutions are -4 and -14
x²+2x-24=0
x²+2*1x +1-25=0
x²+2*1*x+1² = 25
(x+1)² = 25
x+1= 5 or x+1= -5
x = 4 or x= -6
so the solutions are 4 and -6
p²+12p-54 = 0
p²+2*6*p+36-90=0
p²+2*6*p+6² = 90
(p+6)² = 90
p+6 = √90 or p+6 = -√90
p = √90-6 or p= -√90-6
m²-6m-55= 0
m²-2*3*m+3²-64=0
(m-3)² = 64
m-3 = 8 or m-3 = -8
m= 11 or m= -5
