You should subtract 5 from both sides next.


Adding 2x to both side will give you the following.


5 + 5x = 9


And since you got all the variable terms to the left, you want all the constant terms to the right. You do that by subtracting 5 from both sides. This gives you the below statement.


5x = 4


You can then divide to solve.


x = 4/5 or .8

Each lenght is in metres Calculate DC​
Gnom [1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

ED is greater than BC

the line from B to ED ^ (which i drew ) the point it touches ED name it X. so EX will be 2 ( ED-BC)(6-4).

then u have a triangle. EX, XB and EB.

you have length of EX(2) and u have hypotenuse. so u can calculate XB using Pythagoras theorem.

15.1²=2²+XB²

15.1²-2²=XB²

224.01=XB²

XB=14.97

since XB and DC are parallel ( a rectangle is forming XBCD) so DC is also 14.97

What is the value of x will make the inequality true. 5x - 10 < 75?
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

x=16 or any value less than 16.

Step-by-step explanation:

16x5=80 and subtract 10 you get 70. X has to equal a value that makes the whole left side of the equation "smaller" than the irght side, and 16 or any value less than that would accomplsish this.
