Equation: SOLVE


Solution for 10=4(x-1)-(x-8) equation:

Simplifying
10 = 4(x + -1) + -1(x + -8)

Reorder the terms:
10 = 4(-1 + x) + -1(x + -8)
10 = (-1 * 4 + x * 4) + -1(x + -8)
10 = (-4 + 4x) + -1(x + -8)

Reorder the terms:
10 = -4 + 4x + -1(-8 + x)
10 = -4 + 4x + (-8 * -1 + x * -1)
10 = -4 + 4x + (8 + -1x)

Reorder the terms:
10 = -4 + 8 + 4x + -1x

Combine like terms: -4 + 8 = 4
10 = 4 + 4x + -1x

Combine like terms: 4x + -1x = 3x
10 = 4 + 3x

Solving
10 = 4 + 3x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.
10 + -3x = 4 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0
10 + -3x = 4 + 0
10 + -3x = 4

Add '-10' to each side of the equation.
10 + -10 + -3x = 4 + -10

Combine like terms: 10 + -10 = 0
0 + -3x = 4 + -10
-3x = 4 + -10

Combine like terms: 4 + -10 = -6
-3x = -6

Divide each side by '-3'.
x = 2

Simplifying
x = 2

7. Triangles CDE and RST are similar triangles. What is
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

CD = 25 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

\triangle CDE \sim \triangle RST

\therefore \frac{CD}{20}=\frac{40}{32}

(Corresponding sides of similar triangles are in proportion)

\therefore \frac{CD}{20}=\frac{5}{4}

\therefore CD = \frac{5}{\cancel 4}\times \cancel {20} \:\:\blue{\bold{5}}

\therefore CD = 5\times 5

\therefore CD = 25\: ft
