What is the solution to the following question

Mathematics
1 answer:
Anastaziya [24]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x + 1) = 3(5 - x) + 2

Distribute,

2(x + 1) = 3(5 - x) + 2

2x + 2 = 3(5 - x) + 2

Rearrange terms,

2x + 2 = 3(5 - x) + 2

2x + 2 = 3(-x + 5) + 2

Distribute,

2x + 2 = 3(-x + 5) + 2

2x + 2 = -3x + 15 + 2

Add the numbers,

2x + 2 = -3x + 15 + 2

2x + 2 = -3x + 17

Subtract 2 from both sides,

2x + 2 = -3x + 17

2x + 2 - 2 = -3x + 17 - 2

2x  = -3x + 17 - 2

2x  = -3x + 15

Add 3x to both sides,

2x  = -3x + 15

2x + 3x  = -3x + 3x + 15

5x  = -3x + 3x + 15

5x  =  15

Divide both sides by the same factor (15),

5x  =  15

5x/5 = 15/5

x = 15/5

x = 3

Hence, the answer is 3.

How does the ratio of corresponding side lengths of the two quadrilaterals compare with the ratio of the areas of the quadrilate
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

The ratio of the areas would be the ratio of the side lengths squared.

Say the ratio of the side lengths is 1:2, the ratio of the areas would be 1:4. If the ratio of the sides were 2:3, the ratio of the areas would be 4:9.

Hope this helps
