8 ft wide, 12 ft long......so if u want it 2 ft wide, u have a scale factor of 1/4.
that means ur length will be 12 * 1/4 = 12/4 = 3 ft long

A = L * W
A = 3 * 2
A = 6 square ft <==

1. 4x - 8 + 2x + (-5x) + x^2 - 3 = 4x - 8 + 2x - 5x + x^2 - 3...now, we just combine like terms....lets group them...it will be easier ...x^2 + (4x + 2x - 5x ) - 8 - 3 = x^2 + x - 11

2. 2x + 5x = 8x

3. 2r + 4 + 3x - 2 = 3x + 2r + (4 - 2) = 3x + 2r + 2

4. 3x - 2y - x + 5y = (3x - x) + (5y - 2y) = 2x + 3y

5. 2y^2 - 8y^3 + 5y - 5y^2 + 4y^3 = (4y^3 - 8y^3) + (2y^2 - 5y^2) + 5y =
    -4y^3 - 3y^2 + 5y

I need help with that one.<br> What is<br> 2(3x-2)- 4x= 5x+2
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

So we have this equation:

2   (3x-2) - 4x = 5x + 2

You can first operate the parenthesis, knowing that a(b+c) = ab + ac (conmutative)

2(3x-2) - 4x = 5x + 2

2 * 3x - 2 * 2 - 4x = 5x + 2

6x - 4 -4x = 5x + 2

Now, we can operate the x:

6x - 4 -4x = 5x + 2

2x - 4 = 5x + 2

And sum 4 in both sides and substract 5x in both too.

2x - 4 = 5x +2

2x - 4 + 4 - 5x' = 5x + 2 + 4 -5x

Now we can operate:

-3x = 6

And we can divide by -3 the two sides...

x = 6/-3 = -2
