Answer:
x = -5 or x= 2
Step-by-step explanation:
|-4x-6| = 14
There are two solutions, one positive and one negative
-4x-6 = 14 -4x-6 = -14
Add 6 to each side
-4x-6+6 = 14+6 -4x-6+6 = -14+6
-4x = 20 -4x = -8
Divide by -4
-4x/-4 = 20/-4 -4x/-4 = -8/-4
x = -5 x = 2
Answer:
decrease by 2.16
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert the problem to an equation using the percentage formula: P% * X = Y.
P is 10%, X is 150, so the equation is 10% * 150 = Y.
Convert 10% to a decimal by removing the percent sign and dividing by 100: 10/100 = 0.10.
Answer:
The greatest common factor of 4 and 10 is 2, and the Least common multiple of 4 and 10 is 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
60 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
For each point just divide the miles by the hour
120/2 = 60 mph
180/3 = 60 mph
240/4 = 60 mph
For this question, it would be most effective to use an algebraic expression to more easily show what the question is asking. If we use the variable "k" to show the distance in km that he cycled on Sunday, we know that the amount he cycled on Saturday equals k + 12, and the amount that he cycled on the weekend should be the amount of Saturday plus the amount of Sunday. If we write this as an equation we say:
k + k + 12 = 38
=> 2k + 12 = 38
Now we can just rearrange and solve for k:
=> 2k = 26
=> k = 26/2 = 13
Therefore Patrick cycled 13km on Sunday
To solve the answer, we just add 12km to the value for Sunday like so:
12 + 13 = the amount he cycled on Sunday
Hope this helped, remember to please try and understand the maths as well as the answer :))
