Answer: x=   - 14

Step-by-step explanation:

4(x + 2) = 3(x - 2)

 4x+8   =  3x-6

  -3x         -3x

   x+8   =  -6

     -8    =  -8

         x = -14

Answer:

x = -14

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

4(x + 2) = 3(x - 2)

Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>

  1. Distribute: 4x + 8 = 3x - 6
  2. Subtract 3x on both sides: x + 8 = -6
  3. Subtract 8 on both sides: x = -14

Step 3: Check

<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>

4(-14 + 2) = 3(-14 - 2)

4(-12) = 3(-16)

-48 = -48

A ramp leads up to a building. The top of the ramp is 5 feet above the ground, and the bottom is 15 feet from the building as sh
kirill [66]
To answer this you have to use Pythagoras's theorem: a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Put in the values:
5^2 + 15^2 = c^2

Simplify it:
25 + 225 = c^2

Simplify again:
250 = c^2

Square root both sides:
15.8113883008 = c

So the ramp is:
15.8113883008 feet

Now round the number: 
15.8ft

The above is the answer :)
