Hello!
2x + 1 = 5x - 8
Solve by subtracting both sides by 2x:
2x - 2x + 1 = 5x - 2x - 8
1 = 3x - 8
Add 8 to both sides:
1 + 8 = 3x - 8 + 8
9 = 3x
Divide both sides by 3:
9/3 = 3x/3
x = 3
The value of x is 3
<h3>How to solve for x?</h3>
The given parameters are:
Length = 10cm
width = 2cm
Height = x
The surface area is calculated as;
Area = 2 *(lw + lh + wh)
So, we have:
2 * (10 * 2 + 2x + 10x) = 112
Evaluate the like terms and divide by 2
20 + 12x = 56
Subtract 20 from both sides
12x = 36
Divide by 12
x = 3
hence, the value of x is 3

Answer:13.80
Step-by-step explanation:18-4.20=13.80
<span>-49 + -2x + 12x = 101 + -12x + 12x Combine like terms: -2x + 12x = 10x -49 + 10x ... 101 + 49 = 150 10x = 150 Divide each side by '10'. x = 15 Simplifying x = 15 </span><span>
