For which equation is the order of steps to first divide both sides by 2 and then to subtract 10 from both sides?(1 point) Responses 2(x − 10) = 16 2 Left Parenthesis x minus 10 Right Parenthesis equals 16 2(x + 10) = 16 2 Left Parenthesis x plus 10 Right Parenthesis equals 16 2x + 10 = 16 2 x plus 10 equals 16 10(x + 2) = 16
The equation for which the order of steps is first to divide both sides by 2 and then subtract 10 from both sides is:
2x + 10 = 16
did you mean 2(x + 10) = 16
Apologies for the confusion. Yes, the correct equation is 2(x + 10) = 16.
What is the solution of the equation −4(z + 12) = 36 when solving for z ? (1 point) Responses 21 21 −6 negative 6 −21 negative 21 24
To solve the equation −4(z + 12) = 36 for z, we will follow the steps:
1. Distribute -4 to the terms inside the parentheses:
-4z - 48 = 36
2. Add 48 to both sides of the equation to isolate the variable:
-4z = 36 + 48
-4z = 84
3. Divide both sides of the equation by -4 to solve for z:
z = 84 / -4
z = -21
Therefore, the solution for z is -21.
Divide both sides by 7
Subtract 6 from both sides
6(x - 8) = 48
2(x + 10) = 16
-21
these are the answers to equations with parentheses quick check
Based on the provided equations and steps, the correct order of steps to solve the equations and the corresponding simplified results are as follows:
1. Divide both sides by 7 and then subtract 6 from both sides:
6(x - 8) = 48
Divide both sides by 6:
x - 8 = 8
Add 8 to both sides:
x = 16
2. Divide both sides by 2:
2(x + 10) = 16
Divide both sides by 2:
x + 10 = 8
Subtract 10 from both sides:
x = -2
3. The value of -21 does not correspond to any of the given equations and steps.
