Answer 1

(4x + 10)/2 - 4 = 24

Answer 2

@andriod09

Answer 3

I'm sorry that was the wrong equation.
(4x + 10)/2 – 4 = 22

Answer 4

are you trying to solve for x?

Answer 5

yes i am

Answer 6

we could start by removing the -4 on the left side by adding +4 on both sides and that gives you
(4x+10) / 2 = 22 + 4

Answer 7

now to remove the 2 on the bottom you can cross multiply or just multiply both sides by 2 and that gives you
4x + 10 = 52

Answer 8

okay, so then i would subtract 10 from both sides?

Answer 9

yes

Answer 10

so hen 4x = 42
divide both sides by 4 and I get
10.5?

Answer 11

yes that's correct

Answer 12

6x/3 - 16 = 6
can you help me with this one?

Answer 13

@JAMG

Answer 14

always start by moving the ones that are by themselves so lets add +16 to both sides

Answer 15

this is what I have so far:

6x/3 - 16 = 6
add 16 to both sides
6x/3 = 22
what do i do from there?

Answer 16

ok that's correct you have to options you can cross multiply the 3 or you can divide the 6 by 3

Answer 17

if you cross multiply you get 6x = 66
divide by 3 you get 2x = 22

both get you the same answer

Answer 18

so x = 11

Answer 19

correct

Answer 20

can you help me with one more?

Answer 21

sure

Answer 22

A weather satellite is carrying meteorological equipment to chart hurricane activity over the course of a year. The equipment weighs 4,800 newtons (N) on the ground. If the weight of a mass at 19,778 km from Earth’s center is only 10% of the weight of the mass on Earth, how much will the weather equipment weigh when the satellite is in space, 19,788 km from Earth’s center?
Calculate your answer:

i'm doing all of this for earth science unfortunately:/

Answer 23

since you have the equipment at 19778 km from earth center then the weight its only 10% , so what is 10% of 4800 Newtons

Answer 24

4800/10?

Answer 25

you can do an equation also so

100 % = 4800
10% = ??

Answer 26

480?

Answer 27

that's correct

Answer 28

okay cool! thank you
