Answer:
x= 72
Step-by-step explanation:
combine the Xs on one side and then make the denominators the same and solve
8/12X +6 = 3/4X
sub 6 on both sides
then sub 3/4 (aka. 9/12)
-1/12X= -6
multiply by reciprocal (the fraction flip-flopped)(-12) on both sides
and you get 72
Answer:
x=18
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the areas of the rectangles
1st rectangle
A= l*w
A = (2x+4)*9
= 18x+36
2nd rectangle
A = l*w
= 15*(3x-30)
= 45x-450
Since the area of the rectangles are equal, we set these two equations equal
18x+36 = 45x-450
Subtract 18x from each side
18x-18x+36 = 45x-18x-450
36 = 27x-450
Add 450 to each side
36+450 =27x
486 = 27x
Divide by 27 on each side
486/27 = 27x/27
18=x
56 I think :) tell me if it is
Answer:
104cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of 1st rectangle
given
l=12cm
w=6cm
A =l×w
=12cm×6cm
=72cm^2
Area of 2nd rectangle
given
l=14-6=8cm
w=4cm
A=l×w
=8cm×4cm
=32cm^2
Total area =72cm^2+32cm^2=104cm^2
