Answer:

x=-11

Step-by-step explanation:

12-4(x+2)=48

Subtract 12 from each side

12-12-4(x+2)=48-12

-4(x+2)=36

Divide by -4

-4(x+2)/-4=36/-4

x+2 = -9

Subtract 2

x+2-2 = -9-2

x=-11

The graph shows the location of point P and point R. Point R is on the y-axis and has the same y-coordinate as point P. Point Q
Mumz [18]

Answer:

n = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Coordinate of P = (n,3)

R is on y-axis & the y-coordinate of P & R are equal. So coordinate of R = (3,0)

Coordinate of Q = (n,-2)

Using distance formula,

Distance between P & Q =

\sqrt{ {( n  -  n}) ^{2} +  {( 3-  ( - 2)  })^{2}   }

=  >  \sqrt{ {(3 + 2)}^{2} }  =  \sqrt{ {5}^{2} }  = 5

Distance between P & R =

\sqrt{ {(n - 0)}^{2} +  {(3 - 3)}^{2}  }

=  >  \sqrt{ {n}^{2} }  = n

But in question it is given that distance between P & Q is equal to the distance between P & R. So,

n = 5

How to write a fraction or mixed number as a decimal pre algebra?
Oksanka [162]
If you had the number 4 1/4 you would divide the numerator (1) by the denominator (4) and then take the decimal number (0.25) you get and add the decimal to the whole number on your mixed number (4+0.25) and that would give you the decimal.

What is the solution to the equation 2x + 4 = 24? <br> x = 1 <br> x = 3 <br> x = 6 <br> x = 10
horsena [70]

Answer:

    x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

1.1     Pull out like factors :

  2x - 20  =   2 • (x - 10)  

Equation at the end of step  1  :

Step  2  :

Equations which are never true :

2.1      Solve :    2   =  0

This equation has no solution.

A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

2.2      Solve  :    x-10 = 0  

Add  10  to both sides of the equation :  

                     x = 10  

One solution was found :

                  x = 10
