Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 3(x - 1) + 8(x - 3) = 6x + 7 - 5x ← distribute parenthesis on left side and simplify

- 3x + 3 + 8x - 24 = x + 7

5x - 21 = x + 7 ( subtract x from both sides )

4x - 21 = 7 ( add 21 to both sides )

4x = 28 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 7

Answer:

x=7

Step-by-step explanation:

−3(x−1)+8(x−3)=6x+7−5x

(−3)(x)+(−3)(−1)+(8)(x)+(8)(−3)=6x+7+−5x(Distribute)

−3x+3+8x+−24=6x+7+−5x

(−3x+8x)+(3+−24)=(6x+−5x)+(7)(Combine Like Terms)

5x+−21=x+7

5x−21=x+7

Step 2: Subtract x from both sides.

5x−21−x=x+7−x

4x−21=7

Step 3: Add 21 to both sides.

4x−21+21=7+21

4x=28

Step 4: Divide both sides by 4.

4x/4=28/4

In the figure, AB║CD and ∠EIA is congruent to ∠GJB Complete the following statements to prove that ∠IKL is congruent to ∠DLH.
REY [17]

Here it is given that AB || CD

< EIA = <GJB

Now

∠EIA ≅ ∠IKC and ∠GJB is ≅ ∠ JLD (Corresponding angles)

∠EIA  ≅ ∠GJB then ∠IKC ≅ ∠ JLD (Substitution Property of Congruency)

∠IKL + ∠IKC 180° and ∠DLH +  ∠JLD =180° (Linear Pair Theorem)

So

m∠IKL + m∠IKC = 180°       ....(1)

But ∠IKC  ≅ ∠JLD

m∠IKC = m∠JLD (SUBTRACTION PROPERTY OF CONGRUENCY)

So we have

m∠IKL + m∠JLD = 180°

∠IKL and ∠JLD are supplementary angles.

But ∠DLH and ∠JLD are supplementary angles.

∠IKL ≅ ∠DLH (CONGRUENT SUPPLEMENTS THEOREM)

Dr. Kora borrowed $8000 to purchase new medical equipment for her new office . If she paid 7.5% simple interest for 10 years. Ho
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Dr. Kora will pay an interest of $6,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple interest = P × R × T

Where:

P = Principal = $8000

R = Rate = 7.5% = 0.075

T = Time = 10 years

∴ Simple interest = 8000 × 0.075 × 10 = $6,000

Therefore Dr. Kora will pay an interest of $6,000
