First distribute the 2 to the values inside the parentheses.

[tex]6+2(x-4)=12[/tex]

[tex]6+2x-8=12[/tex]

Combine like terms. (6+-8)

[tex]6+-8=-2[/tex]

[tex]-2+2x=12[/tex]

Add 2 on both sides of the equation.

[tex]2+-2+2x=12+2[/tex][tex]2x=14[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2.

[tex]\frac{2x}{2}[/tex]=[tex]\frac{14}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x=7[/tex]

The value of x is equal to 7.

the answer to your question 7.2

There are two ways to evaluate the square root of 864: using a calculator, and simplifying the root.

The first method is simplifying the root. While this doesn't give you an exact value, it reduces the number inside the root.

Find the prime factorization of 864:

[tex]\sqrt{864} = \sqrt{2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 3 \cdot 3 \cdot 3}[/tex]

Take any number that is repeated twice in the square root, and move it outside of the root:

[tex]\sqrt{864} = \sqrt{(2 \cdot 2) \cdot (2 \cdot 2) \cdot 2 \cdot (3 \cdot 3) \cdot 3}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{2 \cdot 2} = \sqrt{4} = 2[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{3 \cdot 3} = \sqrt{9} = 3[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{(2 \cdot 2) \cdot (2 \cdot 2) \cdot 2 \cdot (3 \cdot 3) \cdot 3} = \sqrt{(4) \cdot (4) \cdot 2 \cdot (9) \cdot 3}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{(4) \cdot (4) \cdot 2 \cdot (9) \cdot 3} = (2 \cdot 2 \cdot 3) \sqrt{2 \cdot 3} = \boxed{12 \sqrt{6}}[/tex]

The simplified form of √864 will be 12√6.

The second method is evaluating the root. Using a calculator, we can find the exact value of √864.

Plugged into a calculator and rounded to the nearest hundredths value, √864 is equal to 29.39. Because square roots can be negative or positive when evaluated, this means that √864 is equal to ±29.39.

The estimate for the subtraction of 19.7 from 6.9 is approximately 13.

To estimate the difference between 19.7 and 6.9, we can round each number to the nearest whole number first. The number 19.7 rounds to 20, and 6.9 rounds to 7. Subtraction of these two estimates gives us:

20 - 7 = 13.

Therefore, the estimate for the subtraction of 19.7 from 6.9 is approximately 13.

4/10 = .4

3/8 = .375

.4 > .375, so Clara will reach more people

Another way to look at it:

4/10 * 40 to 4 * 4 = 16 people reached

3/8 * 40 to 3 * 5 = 15 people reached

Answer: Clara will reach more people with 1 more

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we will find the total number of people Clara can reach in 40 calls and we will also find the total number of people Toby can reach in 40 calls and then we will compare the two to be able to determine who can reach more people in the 40 phone calls.

We can use proportion to find the total number of people Clara reached in 40 calls

Let x be the total number of people Clara can reach in 40 phone calls

Since Clara can reach 4 people in 10 phone calls. Then;

4 people = 10 calls

     x        =  40 calls

cross multiply

10 × x   =   40 × 4

10x       =     160

Divide both-side of the equation by 10

10x/10  =  160/10

x =  16

The number of people Clara reached in 40 calls is 16

Now, we can also use the same method to get the number of people Toby can reach in 40 calls.

Let x represent the number of people Toby can reach in 40 calls.

Since Toby can reach 3 people in 8 calls. Then;

3 people =  8 calls

  x           = 40 calls

cross multiply

8  ×  x   =  40 ×  3

   8x    =  120

Divide both-side of the equation by 8

8x/8  =  120/8

x =  15

The number of people Toby can reach in 40 calls is 15.

Now compare;

Clara can reach 16 people in 40 calls

Toby can reach 15 people in 40 calls

Therefore, Clara can reach more people  than Toby in 40 calls

Clara can reach more people in 40 calls with 1 more person

15x = -75  Divide both sides by 15.

Final answer: -5

hope that helps

Let the first angle be x

Sum of complementary angle is 90

Then second angle will be 90- x

As difference is 14

Therefore

x - (90-x) =14

x-90+x=14

2x = 14 +90

x = 104/2

x = 52

The car goes 23.2 miles every gallon, so with 15 gallons (15 * 23.2 = 348) it can go 348 miles. With the extra .25 that the car has, it can go 0.25 * 23.2 = 5.8 miles. 348 miles plus the 5.8 miles gets you 353.8 miles on 15.25 gallons.

A car that averages 23.2 miles per gallon can travel approximately 353.8 miles using 15.25 gallons of gasoline.

If a car averages 23.2 miles per gallon of gasoline, we can calculate the distance it can travel on 15.25 gallons by multiplying the car's fuel efficiency by the amount of gasoline.

To find the distance:

Multiply the car's average miles per gallon (MPG) by the number of gallons of gasoline.

Distance = 23.2 MPG * 15.25 gallons

Distance = 353.8 miles

Therefore car that averages 23.2 miles per gallon can go approximately 353.8 miles on 15.25 gallons of gasoline.

1) Rewrite the equations in y = mx + b format (m = slope, b = y-intercept)

Independent: one solution ⇒  different slopes

Dependent: infinite solutions (same line) ⇒  same slope and y-intercept

Inconsistent: no solutions (parallel lines) ⇒  same slope but different y-intercepts

-21x - 3y = -24  →  -3y = 21x - 24   →  y = -7x + 8   ⇒  m = -7, b = 8

y = -7x + 7  ⇒  m = -7, b = 7

same slope but different y-intercepts = parallel lines = no solution

v = - 5

distribute right side of equation and simplify

2v + 18 = 16 - 4v - 28

2v + 18 = - 12 - 4v ( add 4v to both sides )

6v + 18 = - 12 ( subtract 18 from both sides )

6v = - 30 ( divide both sides by 6 )

v = [tex]\frac{-30}{6}[/tex] = - 5

The given equation is a linear algebra problem. By distributing, simplifying, and isolating the variable, we find that the solution to the equation 2v+18=16-4(v+7) is v = -5.

Your answer would be 265 because knowing that the lowest temp is a negative number, and you're trying to find the difference between a positive number from a negative number, you would have to add a number to -129 to cancel it out and make it 0. The only number that would do so would be 129. Then by using 129, add 136 to it and you will get your answer, I hope this helps :)

Out of a class of 30 students, 13 students walk to school. This is the exact number provided in the question itself.

The question asks how many students in your class walk to school if the class has 30 students and 13 of them walk to school. The answer to this is quite straightforward: if 13 students out of the 30 walk to school, then the number of students who walk to school is 13. There's no need for complex calculations or additional data; the information provided directly gives us the answer.

10 students in your class walk to school.

To calculate [tex]\( \frac{1}{3} \)[/tex] of the total number of students walking to school, you multiply the total number of students by [tex]\( \frac{1}{3} \)[/tex].

Given there are 30 students in total, we multiply 30 by [tex]\( \frac{1}{3} \)[/tex]:

[tex]\[ 30 \times \frac{1}{3} = 10 \][/tex]

This means that [tex]\( \frac{1}{3} \)[/tex] of 30 students equals 10 students. So, in your class of 30 students, 10 of them walk to school.

This calculation is based on the principle that multiplying a number by [tex]\( \frac{1}{3} \)[/tex] or dividing by 3 is equivalent. So, dividing 30 by 3 gives us 10. Therefore, [tex]\( \frac{1}{3} \)[/tex] of 30 is 10.

The probable question may be:

Your class has 30 students. If 1/3 of them walk to school, how many students in your class walk to school?

Answer

Let's just get the answer so that you see what we are trying to do with the distributive property.

Cost = C = n (number of books) * Cost of 1 book.

Cost = 7 * 11.20

Cost = 78.40

Distributive Property

11.20 * (4 + 3)

11.20 * 4 + 11.20 * 3

44.80 +33.60

78.40 which agrees with the multiplication answer

To calculate the total cost we have to multiply 7 books by the cost of each book​

Total = 7*$11.20 = $78.4​

Answer : $78.4

3(x-1) = 2x+9                  Remove the Brackets on the left

3x - 3 = 2x + 9               Add 3 to both sides

3x = 2x + 9 + 3              Collect like terms
