Answer:
5x - 4 would be your answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.
PEMDAS =
Parenthesis
Exponents (& Roots)
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction
First, divide 3 from both sides of the equation:
(3(-3 - 3x))/3 = (27)/3
-3x - 3 = 27/3
-3x - 3 = 9
Next, isolate the variable, x. Note that what you do to one side of the equation, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.
First, add 3 to both sides:
-3x - 3 (+3) = 9 (+3)
-3x = 9 + 3
-3x = 12
Next, divide -3 from both sides:
(-3x)/-3 = (12)/-3
x = 12/-3
x = -4
x = -4 is your answer.

Answer: 5
Step-by-step explanation:
AE is half of AC
2 (x + 2) = 5x - 11
2x + 4 = 5x - 11
+ 11 + 11
2x + 15 = 5x
- 2x - 2x
15 = 3x
/ 3 / 3
x = 5
Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
|-4-10| = 14
Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
Q R
T S
I put the letters here in order, a clockwise order starting at Q.
If you look at our diagram you will see that RT and QS are actually the diagonals of this rectangle.
The diagonals of a rectangle are congruent.
We have the measurement of RT = the measurement of QS.
That is we have this equation: 4x-16=x+5.
4x-16=x+5
Subtract x on both sides:
3x-16= 5
Add 16 on both sides.
3x = 21
Divide both sides by 3.
x = 7
