So subtract 2q from both sides.
This will cancel out the 2q on the left.
So the equation right now should be 10=5q.
Now divide each side by 5.
10/5=2
2=q.
That's the answer! Hope this helped!!

Answer:

The value of q is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

$2q+10=7q$

Using subtraction property of equality, subtract 2q from both sides.

$2q+10-2q=7q-2q$

Combine like terms.

$(2q-2q)+10=(7q-2q)$

$0+10=5q$

$10=5q$

Using division property of equality, divide both sides by 5.

$\frac{10}{5}=\frac{5q}{5}$

$2=q$

Therefore the value of q is 2.

Answer:

= 18 ( 3 + 2(\sqrt{3} + \sqrt{2} ))

Step-by-step explanation:

$6(\sqrt{36} +\sqrt{27}) + 6(\sqrt{27} +\sqrt{18}) + 6(\sqrt{18} + \sqrt{9} )\\= 6( {6} +\sqrt{9*3}) + 6( \sqrt{9*3} +\sqrt{9*2}) + 6(\sqrt{9*2} + 3 )\\= 6( {6} +3\sqrt{3}) + 6(3\sqrt{3} +3\sqrt{2}) + 6(3\sqrt{2} + 3 )\\=36 + 18\sqrt{3} + 18\sqrt{3} + 18\sqrt{2}+ 18\sqrt{2} + 18\\= 36+18 +18( \sqrt{3}+ \sqrt{3} +\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{2})\\= 54 + 18 (2\sqrt{3} +2\sqrt{2})\\=54 + 36\sqrt{3} + 36\sqrt{2}\\= 18 ( 3 + 2(\sqrt{3} + \sqrt{2} ))$
