Answer:

  • simplifies to 6x+6=-10
  • x = -8/3 = -2 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

3(4x+2)-6x=5x-5(2+x)

12x +6 -6x = 5x -10 -5x . . . . . eliminate parentheses using the distributive property

6x +6 = -10 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms

x +1 = -10/6 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 6

x = -1 - 5/3 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add -1

x = -8/3 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify

Suppose you have a right triangle with congruent legs and a hypotenuse that measure (12sqrt(5))/5 What is the length of the smal
anastassius [24]

The length of the smaller leg is 3.79

<h3>How to determine the length of the smaller leg?</h3>

Represent the smaller leg with x.

So, we have:

x^2 + x^2 = ((12\sqrt5)/5)^2 -- Pythagoras theorem

This gives

2x^2 = 144/5

Divide by 2

x^2 = 72/5

This gives

x^2 = 14.4

Take the square root

x = 3.79

Hence, the length of the smaller leg is 3.79
