The value of x is -8

Step-by-step explanation:

The steps of solving an equation of one variable

  1. Simplify the two sides of the equation
  2. Separate the variable in one side and the numerical term in the other side
  3. Divide the both sides by the coefficient of the variable

∵ 372 = -3x - 6(8x + 6)

- Simplify the R.H.S. of the equation by multiplying the bracket by 6

∵ 372 = -3x - [6(8x) + 6(6)]

- You must put the square bracket because the sign in-front of 6

  is (-) and the (-) changes the signs after it

∴ 372 = -3x - [48x + 36]

- Remember (-)(+) = (-), multiply the square bracket by (-)

∴ 372 = -3x - 48x - 36

- Add the like terms in the R.H.S.

∴ 372 = -51x - 36

- Add 36 to both sides to separate x in the R.H.S.

∴ 408 = -51x

- Divide both sides by -51 (coefficient of x)

∴ -8 = x

I hope these steps help you

The value of x is -8

What is the answer in square root
Viefleur [7K]
Hi!
First of all, we can look and see that these sqaure roots are the same, so it's easy to add.

In square roots, if the number INSIDE the square root is the same, it stays that way for the answer .

So the equation is 9(square root) 5 + 4(square root) 5.
The numbers out the sqaure root can just be added. So 9+4 = 13.

Lastly just attach the sqaure root onto the 13

Final answer should be 13(square root)5

***use the actual symbol in place of (sqaure root)

I hope this helps!

Answer:

3 3/8 cups of flour

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we know that 2 1/4 is the normal amount of flour you would use in the recipe. but you don't want to do normal. You want to make 1 1/2 times more than you usually do.

To do this, first figure out what half of 2 1/4 is.

(2 1/4) /2 = 1 1/8

Then, because you are looking to use 1 1/2 times more flour, simply add the 1 1/8 to the 2 1/4

You end up using 3 3/8 cups of flour.
