Hello - let's do this step by step. Show your work.
You're asking: 9(8−x)=3x.
Now, simplify both sides of the equation.
9(8−x)=3x
(9)(8)+(9)(−x)=3x (To do that, distribute)
72+−9x=3x
−9x+72=3x
Now, subtract 3x from both sides.
−9x+72−3x=3x−3x
Simplify,
−12x+72=0
After, subtract 72 from both sides.
−12x+72−72=0−72
−12x=−72
Last thing, divide both sides by -12.
-12x/12 = -72/-12
Divide.
Therefore, you have <u>x = 6</u> as your final answer.
Answer:
2:3
Step-by-step explanation:
12:18 (divide by small number:1)
6:9(divide by: 3)
2:3(look at both the side and simplify)
Answer:
28*3(x)
Step-by-step explanation:
The product of 7 and 4 is 28.
Times a number multiplied by three is the number 28 multiplied with 3x.
The formula for the area of a trapezoid is:
A= (a+b)/2*h
A=150
h=10
b=14
a=?
So we need to solve for a. Let's plug in the values that we do know...
A= (a+b)/2*h
150=(a+14)/2*10
150=(a/2+14/2)*10
150=(a/2+7)*10
Divide both sides by 10
15=a/2+7
subtract 7 from both sides
8=a/2
multiply both sides by 2
16=a
The other base is 16
the answer to this question is a
