<span>2x - 12 = 14

Add 12 to both sides of the = sign to get rid of the "-12".

</span><span>2x - 12 <span>+ 12 </span>= 14 <span>+ 12</span>
2x = 26

Now divide both sides by 2 to isolate the x
</span><span>
2x / 2 = 26 / 2
x = 13.

The solution is x = 13.

Hope this helps!

Let me know if there's anything you're still confused about and I'll try to help you out.

Solving for x like this is definitely something you want to master and be able to do on your own, because you'll be doing it in future math.

s^3=(1/3)(3)(5/3)\\ \\ s^3=5/3\\ \\ s=\sqrt[3]{\frac{5}{3}}in\\ \\ s\approx 1.19in

Natalie paid $20.7 for 3 small pizzas and a salad which was $3.
zysi [14]
20.70=3p+3
17.70=3p
$5.90=p
So if you only needed the equation to describe the word problem it is
$20.70=3p+3

If you want to know how much each pizza was it is $5.90; salad $3.00

Write and solve an equation to find the complement of the angle that measure 42 degree
ser-zykov [4K]
Complementary angles add up to 90 degrees.

So we can write:

42 + x = 90

To solve, subtract 42 to both sides:

x = 48

So the complement of a 42 degree angle is a 48 degree angle.
