Add -2x to both sides to get 'x' on one side of the equation
-2x-3=4x-15
+2x +2x
__________
-3=6x-15
add 15 to both sides to isolate 6x
-3=6x-15
+15=6x+15
__________
12=6x
divide both sides by 6 to get 'x' alone
12=6x
/6=/6
_____
2=x
so your answer is 2=x or you can flip it and it will be the same, x=2
The answer is A. The two should be the same
Answer:
For every 7 books Ethan read, Sadie read 3 books.
Step-by-step explanation:
For every 21 books Ethan read, Sadie read 9 books.
Unsimplified Ratio = 21:9
21 and 9 have a common factor of 3.
Because 21 and 9 share a common factor we can simplify the ratio
21 / 3 = 7
9 / 3 = 3
The new ratio is 7 to 3
So for every 7 books Ethan read, Sadie read 3 books.
Answer:
38°
General Formulas and Concepts:

- Vertical Angles Theorem - vertical angles are congruent
Step-by-step explanation:
From the graph given, we see that angle x° and angle 38° are vertical.
Therefore, using the Vertical Angles Theorem, we can say that they are congruent and x = 38°.
Answer:
1) x = 4
2) a square root cannot be equal to a negative value
Step-by-step explanation:
1) add 1 to each side
2) square each side
(√2x + 1)² = 3²
2x + 1 = 9
2x = 8
x = 4
2) subtract 4 from each side
√2x + 1 ≠ -5
