9(-6x-2)-7(-10x-2)
Simplify, by distributing the 9 and the -7
-54x-18+70x+14
Combine like terms
16x-4 is the simplified expression
Hope this helped!
Answer:
x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
3(-2 - 3x) = -9x - 4 (Given)
3(-2) + 3(-3x) = -9x - 4 (Distributive Property of Equality)
-6 + 9x = -9x - 4 (Simplify)
-6 + 4 -9x= -9x - 4 + 4 (Addition Property of Equality)
-2 + 9x = -9x (Simplify)
-2 + (Division Property of Equality)
-2 = x (Simplify)
x = -2 (Symmetric Property of Equality)
Answer:
32/3 (B)
Step-by-step explanation:
To split everything equally in other words is basically division. so you would do 32/3 and get around 10.6 hours to do each assignment
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
AD and EH are parallel lines
Angle CBD = Angle CFH = x (corresponding angles)
x + 2x = 180 (angles on a straight line)
3x = 180
x = 60
Angle GFH = 120
Angle CBD = 60
The goal here is to find the cost of the painting BEFORE the 60% increase.
To find the cost of the painting, we must take in the information we already have:
Increase percent: 60%
Original price: unknown
Price after increase: $400
$400 is the price of the painting AFTER the increase has been added. So this equals the cost of the painting before the increase, plus the total amount of the increase (which is 60% of the original price).
The total must be (100% + 60% = 160%) 160% of the original painting price.
To find the original price, we must divide the increased price by the new percentage (160%). But how do we get here?
Well, we have 160% and our (fraction) $400/1%. We will have to switch the 160% and the 1%, giving us..
1% $400/160%
We take 400/160, which is 2.5. But this is only 1% of the original price! We want 100%.
So now, we multiply the 2.5 by 100 to get our answer: $250.
