Answer:

<h2>x = -6</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x+3=15\qquad\text{subtract 3 from both sides}\\\\-2x+3-3=15-3\\\\-2x=12\qquad\text{divide both sides by (-2)}\\\\\dfrac{-2x}{2}=\dfrac{12}{-2}\\\\x=-6

The answer is -6 because, u will transfer 3 to the other side where 15 is ,so the answer will be 12. Divide 12 by -2 it will be -6.

aliina [53]
Divid to get the other side :) so if the doll house is 1/12 of the queen size bed you divid each side by 12 see. 4800/80=60. 80/12=6.6667.... so 60/12=5. so then 5x6 1/3. hope this helps you ... goood luck! :)

Ghella [55]

Answer: 19 years to reach 98 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Its already 3 inches tall, if it grows 5 inches every year or expected to it would take : 3 + 5 = 8

8 + 5 = 13

13 + 5 = 18

18 + 5 = 23

23 + 5 = 28

28 + 5 = 33

33 + 5 = 38

38 + 5 = 43

43 + 5 = 48

48 + 5 = 53

And it goes on until 98 inches. Leaving your answer : 19 years.
