Step 1: Reorder the terms2 + 4x = 5[x + 10]
Solving for variable 'x'.

Step 2: Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.


Step 3: Add '-5x' to each side of the equation.
2 + 4x + -5x = 50 + 5x + -5x

Step 4: Combine like terms: 4x + -5x = -1x
2 + -1x = 50 + 5x + -5x

Step 5: Combine like terms again: 5x + -5x = 0
2 + -1x = 50 + 02 + -1x = 50

Step 6: Add '-2' to each side of the equation.
2 + -2 + -1x = 50 + -2

Step 7: Combine like terms once again: 2 + -2 = 0
0 + -1x = 50 + -2-1x = 50 + -2

Step 8: Combine like terms for the last time :p : 50 + -2 = 48
-1x = 48

Step 9: Divide each side by '-1'.
x = -48

Answer: x = -48

Happy studying ^-^

Hello please help me! There are 3 questions, I will give brainliest!
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

1) There are 13 students in Jerry's study.

2) There are 39 students in Kathy's study.

3) Jerry's study is more trustworthy!

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Jerry's study is the one with the dot plot.

Now, the number of students is calculated by adding the total number of dots in the plot.

We have a total of 13 dots.

Thus, there are 13 students in Jerry's study.

2) Kathy's study is the one with the histogram.

The total number of students is gotten by adding the corresponding number of students on the y-axis for each range of distance on the x-axis.

Total number of students = 9 + 11 + 7 + 12 = 39 students

3) Jerry's study where he used a dot plot is likely to be more trustworthy because it gives exact values of the number of students for each distance represented whereas, Kathy's study where she used a histogram doesn't give exact values but just gives a range of distances for a particular number of people.

Given a line segment that contains the points A,B, & C in order, if AB = x + 12, and BC = 2x - 4, and AC = 26, find x.
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

If A, B and C lies on a straight line in order, then;

AB+BC = AC

x+12+2x-4 = 26

x+2x+12-4 =26

3x+8 = 26

3x = 26-8

3x = 18

x = 18/3

x = 6

Hence the value of x is 6
