Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for x, we need to isolate it.

Start by adding 16 to each side to cancel out the -16:

-x=-4

-x is essentially -1 * x which can be written as -1x

-1x=-4

Divide both sides by -1 to isolate x

x=4

We can also plug this back into the equation to check:

-16-x=-20

-16-4=-20

-20=-20 --> correct!

Answer:

Let F = Fran's income

Let W = Winston's income

Combined income is 80000  ==>  F + W = 80000

One quarter of Winston's income is the same as one-sixth of Fran's income  ==>  

(1/4)*W = (1/6)*F

Multiply the 2nd equation by 12 to clear the fractions  

3*W = 2*F

Solve this equation for F

F = (3/2)*W

Substitute this value for F into the 1st equation

(3/2)*W + W = 80000

(5/2)*W = 80000

W = (2/5)*80000 = 32000

So F = 80000 - 32000 = 48000

So Winston earns 32000 and Fran earns 48000

Check:  One quarter of Winston's income is 32000/4 = 8000

           One sixth of Fran'e income is 48000/6 = 8000

Step-by-step explanation: Hope this helps

Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation:

f(6) = -3 * 6 + 10 = -18 + 10 = -8

g(f(6)) = g(-8)

g(-8) = (-8)^{2} + 3 * (-8) - 12 = 64 - 24 - 12 = 64 - 36 = 28
