Answer:

order of operations

60

Step-by-step explanation:

q = unknown number

9q + 6  

[Six more(addition) than the product(multiplication) of nine and a number(q).

So 6 is added to 9q(9 times q).]

Since you know q = 6, substitue/plug it into the equation:

9q + 6     Plug in 6 into "q" since q = 6

9(6) + 6

54 + 6

Chelsea has 11 times as many art brushes as Monique. If they have 60 art brushes altogether, how many brushes does Chelsea have?

Answers

Let Monique's number of art brushes be m.
Then, since Chelsea has 11 times as many art brushes as Monique, Chelsea has 11m brushes.

Together they have 60 art brushes, so we write the equation:

                                              m+11m=60.

This means that 12m=60, dividing both sides of the equation by 12 we get m=5.

Chelsea has 11m=11*5=55 brushes.

What values are solutions of 0 =2xexponent of 2 -6x-8

Answers

Answer:

x = -1 and x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly solve the quadratic expression of

2x^2-6x-8 = 0....it gives you the two brackets of.....(2x-8)(x+1)=0

then...you equate the two brackets to 0.separately

2x-8 = 0....which gives you...x = 4...as the first solution..then..;

x+1 = 0....which gives you...x = -1...as the second solution

Evaluate the expression by using the given values of the variables. y ÷ 4 • 3 – 6 ÷ x + 8 where x = 3 and y = 24A.

C.
–8

D.
24

Answers

First you plug in the the variable values.

24/4 × 3 - 6/3 + 8.

Then you follow the procedure using order of operations (First you do multiplication/division right to left, then subtraction/addition)

24/4 is 6, then multiply by 3 which is 18.

So far you have 18 - 6/3 + 8. Then you divide 6/3 because it is division and you get 2.

18 - 2 + 8, then you subtract 2 from 18 to get 16 and add 8 which is 24. So the answer is D
y ÷ 4 • 3 – 6 ÷ x + 8    replace y with 24 and x with 3

24 ÷ 4 • 3 – 6 ÷ 3 + 8 

6 • 3 – 6 ÷ 3 + 8 

18 – 6 ÷ 3 + 8 

18 - 2 + 8 

16 + 8
