Answer:
Let the additional weight that can be added be = x
Current weight of the bag = 38 pounds
Total weight can be = 50 pounds
The equation becomes:
38+x < or equal 50
x < or equal 50-38=12
Hence, a weight of 12 pounds cab be added to the current wight.
I assume we are solving for x?
You need to isolate x on one side of the equation.
subtract 4x from both sides. This leaves -2x+3=-3. Because we need to isolate x we subtract 3 from both sides, leaving -2x=-6. Again we isolate x, divide both sides by -2. x=3
2x+3=4x-3
-2x+3= -3
-2x= -6
x=3
It's the opposite side divided by the hypotenuse
