The longer side of room B would be 2(12)-4 or 20. Then you would need to set up a proportion to find the shorter side of room B. (12/16)=(x/20) Cross multiply and you get 15. Room A is 12 x 16 and room B is 15 x 20

Solve for x 2x/3 +1 =3
Bess [88]

Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

The first thing you do is set up your equation, and we are solving for x so we are going to get x by itself on one side of the = sign.

       2x/3+1=3        First thing: subtract 1 from BOTH sides.

               -1  -1

----------------------

          2x/3=2       Multipliy by 3 on both sides

              *3 *3

-----------------------

            2x=6         Divide by 2 on both sides

             /2 /2

-----------------------

           x=3

I hope this helped you!!!

Answer:
Multiplication -> Division
Squaring -> Square rooting

Cubing -> Taking the cube root

Addition -> Subtraction

Alternative:

* -> /

^2 -> √

+ -> -

^3 -> 3√

Basically, an inverse is a mathematical manipulation where one operation undoes the action of the other.

Choose the linear inequality that describes the graph. The gray area represents the shaded region.
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

2x + 3y ≥ 5

Step-by-step explanation:

See the graph attached.

The bold straight line passes through the points (1,1) and (4,-1).

Therefore, the equation of the straight line will be  

\frac{y + 1}{- 1 - 1} = \frac{x - 4}{4 - 1}

⇒ 3(y + 1) = - 2(x - 4)

⇒ 3y + 3 = - 2x + 8

⇒ 2x + 3y = 5 ............. (1)

Now, the shaded region i.e. the solution to the inequality does not include the origin(0,0).

So, putting x = 0 and y = 0 in the equation (1) we get, 0 < 5

Therefore, the inequality equation is 2x + 3y ≥ 5 (Answer)
