28 + (3x -2) + 28 = 6x
28+ (3x -3x -2) + 28 = 6x - 3x
28+ (-2) + 28 = 3x
28 - 2 + 28 = 3x
26 + 28 = 3x
54 = 3x
18 = x

Hello there!

<span>28 + (3x - 2) + 28 = 6x
</span>

Answer: x = 18
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Explanation: 


First, let's  combine like-terms.

28 + 28 = 56

Now, we have 56 + (3x - 2) = 6x 

Let's subtract 56 from each side to get rid of those parentheses.

56 + (3x - 2) = 6x 
-56                 -56

Now, we have 3x - 2 = 6x - 56

Let's add 2 to each side

3x - 2 = 6x - 56
+2              +2

3x = 6x - 54

Now, we will subtract 6x from each side

3x = 6x - 54
-6x   -6x

We now have -3x = -54

let's multply each side by -1 to make x a postive number.

-3x = -54
*-1     *-1

We have 3x = 54

Now, we must divide each side by 3 

3x = 54
--     ----
3      3

Our answer is x = 18

Sketch the graph of y = (x + 3)2 – 4 and identify the axis of symmetry.
Sloan [31]

Answer: Thought I’d return the favor and help u with this question! But anyways, the axis of symmetry is at x = -3.

Explanatio: This can be found by looking at the basic form of vertex form:

y = (x - h)^2 + k

In this basic form the vertex is (h, k). By looking at what is plugged into the equation, it is clear that h = -3 and k = -4. This means the vertex is at (-3, -4).

It is a fact that the axis of symmetry is a vertical line of x = (vertex value of x). So we can determine that the axis of symmetry is at x = -3

i hope this helps u

A candle maker plans to make 30 orange candles. She mixes wax to create a specific shade of orange. The ratio of each color in h
otez555 [7]

Answer:2.5 part

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Candle maker requires 1 quart of wax to make 6 candles

If candle maker makes 30 candles then 5 quart of wax is needed

The quart is made up of 2 part of red+ 5 parts of yellow + 3 Parts of white

i.e. total of 10 parts is required to make orange shade

Yellow is 5 part out of 10 part so

yellow will be 2.5 part in 5 quart

NEED HELP ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

a.  \frac{x + 3}{21}=\frac{x + 1}{15}

b. x = 4 (see steps below)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the two polygons are similar, the sides are proportional to each other.  Using a proportion, you can solve for 'x' using cross-multiplication and division:

\frac{smaller}{larger}=\frac{x + 3}{21}=\frac{x + 1}{15}

Cross-multiply: 15(x + 3) = 21(x + 1)

Distribute:  15x + 45 = 21x + 21

Subtract '15x' from both sides: 15x + 45 - 15x = 21x + 21 - 15x or 45 = 6x + 21

Subtract '21' from both sides: 45 - 21 = 6x + 21 - 21 or 24 = 6x

Divide by 6 on both sides: 24/6 = 6x/6

Solve for x: x = 4

The above figure is a special trapezoid. Explain the relationship between the mB and mC
artcher [175]

Answer:

They are supplementary

Step-by-step explanation:

Since AB and DC are parallel, then the alternate interior angles are congruent because there is transversal cutting the parallel lines (BC). So m<B is supplementary to m<C
