10x-7(3x+8)=-26x+4

first you have to isolate the variable

then you divide each side by factores that don't contain the vairable

for this problem if you follow those steps

X=4

-7(3x+8)=-36x+4

-11(3x+8)=-36x+4

By what percent has the rhinoceros weight increased

romanna [79]

let's first off convert those mixed fractions to improper fractions, then get their difference.

$\bf \stackrel{mixed}{1\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{1\cdot 2+1}{2}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{3}{2}}~\hfill \stackrel{mixed}{2\frac{1}{10}}\implies \cfrac{2\cdot 10+1}{10}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{21}{10}} \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ \cfrac{21}{10}-\cfrac{3}{2}\implies \stackrel{\textit{using the LCD of 10}}{\cfrac{(1)21-(5)3}{10}}\implies \cfrac{21-15}{10}\implies \cfrac{6}{10}\implies \cfrac{3}{5}$

now, the original amount, 3/2, if that is the 100%, what is 3/5 off of it in percentage?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2}\\ \frac{3}{2}&100\\\\ \frac{3}{5}&x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{~~\frac{3}{2}~~}{\frac{3}{5}}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies \cfrac{3}{2}\cdot \cfrac{5}{3}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies \cfrac{5}{2}=\cfrac{100}{x} \\\\\\ 5x=200\implies x=\cfrac{200}{5}\implies x=40$

I need the answer please

The trick to solving this problem is to know and remember that the sum of all the interior angles of a triangle is always 180 degrees.

Thus, (6x+1) + (5x-17) + (9x-24) = 180.

20x = -40, so x = -2 (answer)
