Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have to combine like terms

4x-3=2x+7

-2x -2x

2x-3=7

+3 +3

And now simplify

2x=10

/2 /2

x=5

If you were to use the substitution method to solve the following system, choose the

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

15x - y = - 6.....15x + 6 = y...so we sub in 15x + 6 in for y on the other equation

5x - 3y = -13

5x - 3(15x + 6) = -13 <== the new equation

After reading the story “First Day of School,” pick up where the story left off and add a climax, falling action and resolution.

Anit [1.1K]

Although this question asks for original work, and therefore, only you can complete it, we can provide an example to help you guide your work:

"My sister and I said goodbye to mom, and we were ready to finally approach the school and begin one of the most important days of our lives. We were nervous, and worried about whether this year was going to be a good one. I turned around to my sister and asked:

- Are you ready?

- I'm so not ready...

We approached the school, and as we pulled the door, the most delicious smell hit us. It smelled like sweetness, and like a day in the park. We walked in, and what we saw left us in awe.

The school had organized a festival! In order to make the first day of school easier, the morning classes had been cancelled, and we were instead allowed to run and play for a few hours, in order to get to know each other. I saw donuts, corndogs and ice cream. I also saw many kids running around. My sister could not believe her eyes.

- This is the best day ever! - she yelled, while she ran to grab a donut."

In this addition, the conflict is an internal one, as the children feel worried about school. However, this is resolved by the festival that was organized. The climax occurs when the children notice the festival, while the falling action and resolution occur when the children are able to relax and their worries about school disappear.

A square carpet of side length 9 feet is designed with one large shaded square and eight smaller, congruent shaded squares, as s

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

$3\sqrt{3} + 72$

Step-by-step explanation:

I attached an image to aid the understanding of the question.

Looking at the image, we see that the 8 shaded parts are congruent, as affirmed in the question as well. And we are told that T = 3, this implies that the area of the square with T as it's side is 9ft². Since all the 8 squares are congruenrt, it means each square has its area to be 9. Therefore, the total area of the 8 shaded squares will be:

$9 \times 8 = 72ft^{2}$

It remains the area of the shaded square with side S.

From the question, we have the following ratio:

$\frac{9}{S} = \frac{S}{T}[\tex]But[tex]\frac{9}{S} = \frac{S}{3}[\tex]Multiplying through by 3S we have27 = S² and this gives:[tex]S = \sqrt{27} = 3\sqrt{3}$

I did not add ± because length is always positive, so the case of negative is eliminated.

Now the areas of S is $3\sqrt{3}$

Therefore, the total area of the shaded squares is

$3\sqrt{3} + 72$
