Let the number be x.
3(x - 10) = 2x     | 10 less than x multiply be 3 equal 2 times x

3x - 30 = 2x        | Distribute 3

x - 30 = 0            | Subtract 2x from both sides

x = 30                 | Add 30 to both sides

Answer: The number is 30.

Hello!

We know that

(x - 10) * 3 = 2x

Distribute the 3

3x - 30 = 2x

Subtract 2x from both sides

x - 30 = 0

Add 30 to both sides

x = 30

The answer is 30

Hope this helps!

insens350 [35]

Answer:

Value of the unknown quantity for which from given equation we get true numerical equality is called root of that equation. Two equations are called equivalent when the multitudes of their roots match, the roots of the first equation are also roots of the second and vice versa. The following rules are valid:

1. If in given equation one expression is substituted with another identity one, we get equation equivalent to the given.

2. If in given equation some expression is transferred from one side to the other with contrary sign, we get equation equivalent to the given.

3. If we multiply or divide both sides of given equation with the same number, different from zero, we get equation equivalent to the given.

Equation of the kind ax+b=0, where a,b are given numbers is called simple equation in reference to the unknown quantity x.

Find the surface area of the shape below.
almond37 [142]

Answer:

54m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Each square has a equal sides, which is 3m

in order to find the surface area, it's

Formula : Base x height = Area

The total surface area would be all the area's added together

3x3=9cm^2

so each square is 9m^2

there are 6 squares so

9+9+9+9+9+9=54m^2

or you can do 9x6=54m^2
