Solve for x and explain the steps: 3x-6=4(2-3x)-8x

Mathematics
1 answer:
mote1985 [20]2 years ago
7 0

Answer: x = 14/23

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-6=4(2-3x)-8x

3x-6=8-12x-8x --> Expand 4(2-3x)

3x-6=8-20x --> Collect like terms

3x-6+6=8-20x+6 --> Add 6 to both sides, to remove it from the right side

3x=-20x+14

3x+20x=-20x+14+20x --> Add 20x to both sides, to remove it from the left side

23x=14

\frac{23x}{23}=\frac{14}{23} --> Divide both sides by 23

x = 14/23

Find the sum of all the integers from 1 to 100 that are not multiples of 7
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

4343

Step-by-step explanation:

To find multiple of 7 from 1 to 100,

Take the quotient of 100/7=14

n=100 (number of terms)

n=100-14 (Without Multiple of 7=number of terms - multiple of 7)

=>n=86

Sum of 1 to 100 => Sn = n/2(a + an)

                          => Sn = 86/2(1+100)

                          => Sn = 43(101)

                          => Sn = 4343

Simplify and solve for the unknown. Use order of operations as needed. Check your work.
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: 5^3– 10^2 = X(8 – 2) + 2X – 3X

Solving the equation to find the value of x.

⇒ 5^{3} -10^{2} = x(8-2)+2x-3x

Using the distributive property of multiplication, multiplying x with 8 and -2

⇒125-100= 8x-2x+2x-3x

cancelling out -2x and 2x

⇒ 25= 8x-3x

⇒ 25= 5x

Multiplying both side by 5

⇒ x= \frac{25}{5}

∴ x= 5

Hence, the value of unknown is 5.

The perimeter of the triangle below is 10x - 3<br><br> Show how to solve
bezimeni [28]
10x - 3 = x + 2 + 2x - 1
10x - 3 = 3x + 1
-3x on both sides
7x - 3 = 1
-1 on both sides
7x - 4

(Check 7x - 4 by adding them all up to equal 10x - 3)
x + 2 + 2x - 1 + 7x - 4 = 10x - 3
combine liked terms
10x - 3 = 10x - 3

Answer:
D) 7x - 4

Your monthly living expenses are $1500 on an income of $1,650 per month. Your goal is to have an emergency fund of 4 times your
Aneli [31]
For the answer to the question above, your end goal is to have $6,000 total in 12 months. since you have $2400 already you can subtract that from 6,000 leaving you with $3600 over the course of 12 months. since you already put $150 in a month over the course of 12 months you would have $1800 which is only half of the goal of $3600. in order for you to put in $3600, you would have to put an additional 150 in your savings along with your regular 150 making Letter B the answer.
