Answer:
(a) Step 2. 9x -12 = 13 +2x
Step-by-step explanation:
The distributive property says a factor outside parentheses multiplies each term inside parentheses. It is an error to do addition of the factor, or to miss multiplying a term.
In Step 2 of this "solution", the factor of 3 is erroneously <em>added</em> to each coefficent inside parentheses. It should be <em>multiplied</em>.
Correct Step 2: 9x -12 = 13 +2x
__
The rest of the solution should be ...
Step 3: 9x -2x = 13 +12
Step 4: 7x = 25
Step 5: x = 25/7
___
<em>Check</em>
3(3(25/7) -4) = 8 + 2(25/7) +5
3((75 -28)/7) = 13 +50/7
141/7 = 141/7 . . . . . answer checks OK
Answer:
no idea- I would say the answer is 4 but i don't know if the triangles are similar or not

Answer:
111
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum for a 7-sided interior polygon is 900
126+158+120+125+121+139=789
900-789=111
Answer:
The general equation following the pattern becomes is 7 + (n - 1)×2
Where, n = The figure number - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The pattern in the question can be described as follows;
Figure 2 = (5 + 2) squares boxes = 7 squares boxes
Figure 3 = (5 + 2 + 2) squares boxes
Figure 4 = (5 + 2 + 2 + 2) squares boxes
Therefore, the number of squares boxes per figure, form an arithmetic progression (a + (n - 1)d) with the first term a = 7, the common difference d = 2, and the n = the nth term of the series, such that the general equation following the pattern becomes;
7 + (n - 1)×2.
