Part A: What is the value of 2x if 4x + 6 = 2x – 12? Part B: What is the value of x – 3 if 24 = 6x – 18?

Step-by-step explanation:

A) 4x + 6 = 2x - 12

Subtract 6 from both sides

4x + 6 - 6 = 2x - 12 -6

4x = 2x - 18

Subtract 2x form both sides

4x - 2x = 2x - 18 - 2x

2x = -18

B) 24 = 6x - 18

6x - 18 = 24

6x - 6*3 = 24

6(x - 3) = 24

Divide both sides by 6

x - 3 = 4

step-by-step explanation:

it works trust me

- "runner b is moving at a slower rate."

- "the graphs shown are graphs of distance(km) against time(min).

the slopes of this graphs are are given by:

slope = (change in y)/(change in x)

= (change in distance)/(change in time)

this is the formula for finding the speed. so, the slope of these graphs represent the speed of the runner.

taking each division in the graph to represent 1 on both axis:

runner a ⇒ speed = (2-0)/(1-0)

= 2/1

= 2 km/min

runner b ⇒ speed = (3-0)/(3-0)

= 3/3

= 1 km/min

this shows that   runner b is moving at a slower rate."
