-9x-9=-2x+5

Then add 9+14

-9x=-2x+14

Then add 2+-9

-7x=14

So x=-2

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

So we are given the equation -3(3x + 3) = -2x + 5 and we are solving for x. We will have to try to get the equation into the form x = _. That would be our answer.

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

Distribute the -3 on the left side.

-9x - 9 = -2x + 5

Add 2x to both sides to get rid of the -2x on the right side.

-9x - 9 + 2x = 5

Simplify.

-7x - 9 = 5

Add 9 to both sides to get rid of the - 9 on the left side.

-7x = 5 + 9

Simplify.

-7x = 14

Divide both sides by -7 to get rid of the coefficient of -7 on the left side.

x = 14 ÷ (-7)

Simplify.

x = -2

The answer is x = -2.

I hope you find my answer helpful. :)

Which three lengths could be the lengths of the sides of a triangle? 6 cm, 22 cm, 10 cm 7 cm, 25 cm, 11 cm 9 cm, 22 cm, 11 cm 10
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

All represent the three sides of the triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question seeks to test your knowledge of the Triangle Inequality Theorem.

The Triangle Inequality Theorem states that the summation of any 2 sides of a triangle must be greater than the measure of the third side.

Note: This rule must be satisfied for all 3 conditions of the sides.

The answer is all can represent the three sides of the triangle.

Options (6 cm, 22 cm, 10 cm), (7 cm, 25 cm, 11 cm), (9 cm, 22 cm, 11 cm) and (10 cm, 14 cm, 23 cm) satisfies the Triangle Inequality Theorem and all represent the three sides of the triangle.

Value of m varies directly as value of n and n=5 when m=12. What is n when m=18?
Shkiper50 [21]
Simplify the problem down, so:

m = 12 & n = 5
<em />m = 6 & n = 2.5 <em>(divided each number by 20)
</em>
Now m is a factor of 18. Multiply each number by 3.
Answer: m = 18 & <em>n = 7.5</em>
