Solve 2(x-2) = 3(x+2)-8

Mathematics
1 answer:
IgorC [24]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x-2) = 3(x+2)-8

Multiply the 2 and 3 out to the numbers in the parentheses. Don't multiply the 3 out to the -8 because it is outside of the parentheses.

2x-4 = 3x+6-8

Combine the 6 and -8

2x-4 = 3x-2

Subtract 2x from both sides

-4 = x-2

Add 2 to both sides

-2=x

El perímetro de un rectángulo es 28cm, uno de los lados es 6cm más que el otro lado. Hallar el mayor lado del rectángulo.
son4ous [18]

Answer: El mayor lado del rectangulo tiene 10cm

Step-by-step explanation:

El perímetro de un rectángulo puede escribirse como:

P = 2*L + 2*A

Donde L es el largo y A es el ancho.

Sabemos que uno de los lados es 6cm mas largo que el otro, entonces podemos escribir:

L = A + 6cm.

P = 28cm = 2*L + 2*A

podemos reemplazar la primera ecuación en la segunda:

28cm = 2*(A + 6cm) + 2*A

28cm =  12cm + 4*A

28cm - 12cm = 4*A

16cm/4 = A

4cm = A.

Entonces el ancho es 4 cm, y el largo es L = 4cm + 6cm = 10cm

Each polygon pair is similar. Find the missing side length
ohaa [14]

I'll do problem 1 to get you started.

The vertical sides are 3 and x for the left and right figures.

The horizontal sides are 15 and 60 for the left and right figures.

The corresponding sides form fractions which are equal (due to the nature of the similar polygons)

3/x = 15/60

3*60 = x*15 ... cross multiply

180 = 15x

15x = 180

x = 180/15 .... divide both sides by 15

x = 12

----------

Another way you can see this is note how the jump from 15 to 60 is "times 4", so the jump from 3 to x must also be "times 4" to keep the same proportion

3 ---> x = 3*4 = 12

Or you could set up the proportion

60/15 = x/3

4 = x/3

x/3 = 4

x = 3*4

x = 12

-----------

<h3>Final Answer: 12</h3>
