The value of x is -8
Step-by-step explanation:
The steps of solving an equation of one variable
- Simplify the two sides of the equation
- Separate the variable in one side and the numerical term in the other side
- Divide the both sides by the coefficient of the variable
∵ 372 = -3x - 6(8x + 6)
- Simplify the R.H.S. of the equation by multiplying the bracket by 6
∵ 372 = -3x - [6(8x) + 6(6)]
- You must put the square bracket because the sign in-front of 6
is (-) and the (-) changes the signs after it
∴ 372 = -3x - [48x + 36]
- Remember (-)(+) = (-), multiply the square bracket by (-)
∴ 372 = -3x - 48x - 36
- Add the like terms in the R.H.S.
∴ 372 = -51x - 36
- Add 36 to both sides to separate x in the R.H.S.
∴ 408 = -51x
- Divide both sides by -51 (coefficient of x)
∴ -8 = x
I hope these steps help you

Answer:
8 by 12 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Let w represent the width of the rectangle. Then the length is 1.5w. The perimeter is 4 more than 3 times this, so is (3(1.5w) +4) = 4.5w+4
The perimeter is given by the formula ...
P = 2(length + width)
Filling in the given values for the variables, we have ...
4.5w +4 = 2(w +1.5w)
4 = 0.5w . . . . . . subtract 4.5w and collect terms
8 = w . . . . . . . . . multiply by 2
length = 1.5×8 = 12
The rectangle is 8 units wide and 12 units long. The perimeter is 40 units.
I would check my math but 4/3 = 1.3 x 18= 24 divided by 2 for radius would be 12x12=144 x pie or 3.14 would be 452.16
Answer:
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 5 = 2x + 5
3x - 5 + 5 = 2x + 5 + 5
3x = 2x + 10
3x - 2x = 2x - 2x + 10
1x = 10
x = 10
