This is your typical algebra question where you are looking for an unknown value given some information. The information can be set up as:
8 - x = 4*(x +3)
Distribute the 4:
8 - x = 4x + 12
Rearrange to get variables on one side:
8 - 12 = 4x + x
Simplifiy:
-4 = 5x
Isolate the variable:
-4/5 = x
Answer:
D!
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the area, we multiply the length times the width to find the number of squares in each box.
A) 1 square down times 7 squares across is 1 x 7, which is 7.
B) 2 squares down times 6 squares across is 2 x 6= 12.
C) 3 squares down times 5 squares across is 3 x 5 = 15.
D) 4 squares down times 4 squares across = 4 x 4 =16.
16 is the biggest number here, so that is the greatest area!

Answer:
This: Im sorry but, I can't type it all, I just looked up some help.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can rewrite the equation as
5
x
−
3
x
+
8
=
−
10
Then
5
x
−
3
x
=
2
x
So
2
x
+
8
=
−
10
Then, to move the whole numbers to one side, you subtract
8
from both sides
2
x
=
−
18
To get rid of the
2
in front of the
x
, divide both sides by
2
x
=
−

(1) 6 1/3 = 76/12
2 3/4 = 33/12
___________+
109/12
divide and get 9 1/12
-----------------------------------
(2)3 1/2 = 43/12
5 1/2 = 66/12
*from first answer* 109/12
add and you get 218/12
divide and get the answer 18 1/6
Hope this helps you!
Answer:
Length of longer length=132 inches
Length of shorter length=33 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Determine total length of pipe
Total length of pipe=165 inches
Step 2: Derive expression for all the lengths
We can express all these lengths as follows;
L=l1+l2
where;
L=total length
l1=length of longer piece
l2=length of shorter piece
but;
length of longer piece=4×length of shorter piece
replacing;
l1=4l2
replacing;
L=165
l1=4×l2
165=l 2+4 l2
5 l2=165
l2=165/5
l2=33 inches
l1=length of longer length=33×4=132 inches
l2=length of shorter length=33 inches
