Add like terms. "Like terms" are those with the same constellation of variables.
.. terms with variable x: 5x +3x = (5 +3)x = 8x
.. terms with no variable: -9 -20 = -29
The simplified form is 8x -29.
Subtract 60 on both sides to get -40.
You are left with 40x=-40
Divide both sides by 40 to leave x by itself.
You get x=-1.
Answer:
Length = 30
Height = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula for the area = height * length. We know that the height of the wall is 1/3 of its length. This gives us another formula which is 
Now substitute this into the formula, while knowing that the area is 300.
So we have 300 = 
Solving for l gives us 30 and then substituting it back into the equation
, will give us that the height is 10.
Hope this helps
So you want to find two numbers that add up to -13 and multiply to
40. You can find the factors of 40 and find the pair that adds up to
-13. -8 and -5 multiply to 40 and add up to -13.
<span><span>(x−5)</span><span>(x−8)</span>=<span>x2</span>−13x+40</span>
You can use foil to test it
<span><span>x2</span>+<span>(−8x)</span>+<span>(−5x)</span>+40=<span>x2</span>−13x+40</span>
<span><span>x2</span>−13x+40=<span>x2</span>−13x+</span>
Answer:
22cm,24cm,24cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us call one of the other sides x
the shortest side = 2x-26
in an isosceles, 2 sides are equal (x in this case)
so we now have sides of x,x and 2x-26
form an eqution from this.
4x-26=70
4x=96
x=24
24 x 2 = 48 - 26 = 22
thus, the shortest side is 22cm and the other sides are both 24cm
