Answer:
x=−2
Step-by-step explanation: Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
3(x−5)−3=5(x−2)+2x
(3)(x)+(3)(−5)+−3=(5)(x)+(5)(−2)+2x(Distribute)
3x+−15+−3=5x+−10+2x
(3x)+(−15+−3)=(5x+2x)+(−10)(Combine Like Terms)
3x+−18=7x+−10
3x−18=7x−10
Step 2: Subtract 7x from both sides.
3x−18−7x=7x−10−7x
−4x−18=−10
Step 3: Add 18 to both sides.
−4x−18+18=−10+18
−4x=8
Step 4: Divide both sides by -4.
−4x
−4
=
8
−4

Answer: C. She is dividing the entire length into shorter lengths.
The rest of the question would be "How many pieces will she get?"
Step-by-step explanation:
A would be a subtraction problem UNLESS it goes on to ask "how many 1/3 yard pieces can she cut?"
It's a subtraction problem if it's about "how many yards are left?"
B is just backwards and makes no sense with the expression given.
Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes. So if the slope is -2/5...to find the negative reciprocal, " flip " the slope and change the sign.
So we flip -2/5 and we get 5/-2...and now we change the sign...and we get 5/2. So our perpendicular slope will be 5/2.
D.) 15/6
- 3 times 52 = 156, and since you can't exactly convert it to a fraction then i'm assuming that it is 'D'.
