Option A

<u>Answer: </u>

The value of x in the equation 2(x - 3) + 5x = 5(2x + 6) is -12

<u>Solution: </u>

From question given that

2(x - 3) + 5x = 5(2x + 6)

Open the brackets,

2x – 6 + 5x = 10x + 30

Rewrite the above equation,

2x + 5x – 6 = 10x + 30

On simplifying the above equation, we get

7x – 6 = 10x + 30

Now adding 6 on both sides,

7x – 6 + 6 =10x + 30 + 6

7x = 10x + 36

On subtracting 10x on both sides,

7x - 10x = 10x + 36 - 10x

-3x = 36

On dividing -3 on both sides,

x = -12

Hence on simplifying 2(x - 3) + 5x = 5(2x + 6) we get value of x is -12. Hence Option (A) is correct.

A rectangle has a perimeter of 84 meters. One dimension is 7 meters. How long is
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

The unknown dimension is 35

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is l+l+w+w or 2l+2w (l=length, w=width)

l+l+w+w=84

7+7+w+w=84

14+w+w=84

then we subtract 14 from 84

w+w=70

2w=70

\frac{70}{2}=35

w=35

Let's check our answer

35+35+7+7=84

<u>Hope this helps :-)</u>
