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

If the area of the following parallelogram is 135 square feet, what is the length of the base?
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

9ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The area is 135ft and the formula for area is length x width.

on the image it shows the height is 5yds and we want feet since that's that the area is in. a yard = 3 feet so its 3 x 5 = 15.

since the formula to find area is multiplication, use division to find a number in the equation. so

135 divided by 15 = 9.

The length of the base is 9ft.

a repairman leans the top of a 9ft ladder against the top of a stone wall. the base of the ladder is 5.5ft from the wall. about
andrezito [222]

Using the Pythagorean theorem:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a and b are the sides and c is the hypotenuse.

The length of the ladder would be the hypotenuse and the base away from the wall would be one side.


So now we have:

5.5^2 + b^2 = 9^2

Simplify:

30.25 + b^2 = 81

Subtract 30.25 from each side:

b^2 = 81 - 30.25

b^2 = 50.75

Take the square root of both sides:

b = √50.75

b = 7.123

Rounded to the nearest tenth of a foot = 7.1 feet.
