Answer:

3x = 2x + 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question it has been given that three times a number is three more than twice the number.

Let the number is x.

Then by the given statement 3x = 2x + 3

So equation formed can be used to find the value of x

3x - 2x = 3

x = 3

Therefore, the number is 3 and equation to be solved for x is 3x = 2x + 3.

Let the value of the number be represented as x. 

Then, write out an equation; 

3x=2x+3 <--- Solve for x now 
3x-2x=3 
x=3 

Therefore the number is 3. 

Hope I helped :)

The equation 5/2 - x + x - 5/x + 2 + 3x + 8/x^2 - 4 = 0 is a quadratic equation

The value of x is 8 or 1

<h3>How to determine the value of x?</h3>

The equation is given as:

5/2 - x + x - 5/x + 2 + 3x + 8/x^2 - 4 = 0

Rewrite as:

-5/x - 2 + x - 5/x + 2 + 3x + 8/x^2 - 4 = 0

Take the  LCM

[-5(x + 2) + (x -5)(x- 2)]\[x^2 - 4 + [3x + 8]/[x^2 - 4] = 0

Expand

[-5x - 10 + x^2 - 7x + 10]/[x^2 - 4] + [3x + 8]/[x^2 - 4] = 0

Evaluate the like terms

[x^2 - 12x]/[x^2 - 4] + [3x + 8]/[x^2 - 4 = 0

Multiply through by x^2 - 4

x^2 - 12x+ 3x + 8 = 0

Evaluate the like terms

x^2 -9x + 8 = 0

Expand

x^2 -x - 8x + 8 = 0

Factorize

x(x -1) - 8(x - 1) = 0

Factor out x - 1

(x -8)(x - 1) = 0

Solve for x

x = 8 or x = 1

Hence, the value of x is 8 or 1

timofeeve [1]

Answer:

Hence dimension on drawing= 12 in by 6.4 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Actual dimension of the soccer field is 120 ft by 64 ft

Scale during drawing = 1in to 10 ft

Hence dimension on drawing = 120/10 by 64/10 = 12 in by 6.4 in
