Do the Xs have to be the same number
Alexxx [7]3 years ago
5 0
You can combine like/similar terms if the number has the same x at the end, or if the like terms are all regular numbers.
Since 16x and -4x both have an x, you can combine them like you usually would.
16x - 4x = 12x
12x = -48
If you want to solve the equation, you’d divide both numbers by 12 to get your singular x value.
x = -4

Hope that helped! :)

A piece of wood is cut into three pieces in the ratio 6: 5: 2. If the log is 61/2 feet long, what will be the length of the long
Lunna [17]

Answer:

14.077 feet to the nearest thousandth.

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's work out the multiplier:

6 + 5 + 2 = 13.

61/2 = 30.5

- so the multiplier is 30.5/13 = 2.34615

The longest piece refers to the 6 in the ratio its length

= 6 * 2.34615

= 14.0769 ft.
