Hello there!

4(3x - 11) + 23 = 5x - 14

Apply the distributive property to 4(3x - 11)
4(3x) + 4(-11)
12x - 44

We now have:
12x - 44 + 23 = 5x - 14
Combine like-terms on the left-hand side of the equation.
-44 + 23 = -21

12x - 21 = 5x - 14
Get x on one side by subtracting 5x from both sides..
12x - 5x = 7x
5x - 5x = 0

7x - 21 = -14
Add 21 to both sides to isolate 7x.
-21 + 21 = 0
-14 + 21 = 7

7x = 7
Divide both sides by 7 to solve for x.
7x / 7 = x
7 / 7 = 1

We are now left with the following solution:
x = 1

I hope this helps!

What part of the circumference is an arc whose measure is 30°?<br> 1/12<br> 1/10<br> 1/8<br> 1/6
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

The whole circumference (i.e complete circle) is an arc which measures 360°

in our case, it is given that our arc measures only 30°

the fraction of our arc of 30° to the complete circle of 360° is

30/360

= 3/36

= 1/12

AB, CD and EF are straight lines. AB is parallel to CD. Work out the size of angle y
mylen [45]

Answer: 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

2x + 16 = 3x + -12

Reorder the terms:

16 + 2x = 3x + -12

Reorder the terms:

16 + 2x = -12 + 3x

Solving

16 + 2x = -12 + 3x

Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.

16 + 2x + -3x = -12 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 2x + -3x = -1x

16 + -1x = -12 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0

16 + -1x = -12 + 0

16 + -1x = -12

Add '-16' to each side of the equation.

16 + -16 + -1x = -12 + -16

Combine like terms: 16 + -16 = 0

0 + -1x = -12 + -16

-1x = -12 + -16

Combine like terms: -12 + -16 = -28

-1x = -28

Divide each side by '-1'.

x = 28

Simplifying

x = 28
