Answer: x=-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

2(9−x)=3(x+16)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation by distribution

2(9-x)=3(x+16)\\(2)(9)+(2)(-x)=(3)(x)+(3)(16)\\18+-2x=3x+48\\-2x+18=3x+48\\

Step 2: Subtract 3x from both sides.

-2x+18-3x=3x+48-3x\\-5x+18=48

Step 3: Subtract 18 from both sides.

-5x+18-18=48-18\\-5x=30

Step 4: Divide both sides by -5.

\frac{-5x}{-5} =\frac{30}{-5} \\x=-6

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 15cm, and the shorter leg is 9cm. Find the length of the other leg
pishuonlain [190]

Hello!

If you add up the squares of the two legs, it will equal the square of the hypotenuse. As we already have the hypotenuse, we will subtract.

225-81=144

Now we find the square root.

√144=12

Therefore, the other leg is 12 cm long.

I hope this helps!
