Mathematics
2 answers:
irakobra [83]3 years ago

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

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

Distribute

5x - 30 = 2x + 6

Put like terms on each side by subtracting both sides by -2x and adding 30 on each side

3x = 36

Simplify

3x/3 = 36/3

x = 36/3

x = 12

Plug is back in to check

5(12) - 30 = 2(12) + 6

60 - 30 = 24 + 6

30 = 30

Answer:

x=12

Step-by-step explanation:

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

Distribute

5x-30 = 2x+6

Subtract 2x from each side

5x-2x -30 = 2x-2x+6

3x-30 =6

Add 30 to each side

3x-30+30 = 6+30

3x=36

Divide each side by 3

3x/3 = 36/3

x =12

Olive can read 5 pages of her book in 30 minutes at what unit is olive reading
il63 [147K]

Answer:

1 page per 6 minutes or 10 pages per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know that when rates are expressed as quantity of 1 they are called unit rates.

We can represent our problem as unit rate in two ways; either by getting our numerator as 1 or our denominator as 1.

\frac{5 pages}{30 minutes} =\frac{1}{6 minutes}

We know that an hour has 60 minutes. We can get our denominator equal to 60 minutes by multiplying by 2.

\frac{5*2}{30*2}= \frac{10 pages}{60 minutes}

\frac{10 pages}{hour}

Therefore, Olive is either reading at 10 pages per hour or 1 page per 6 minutes.

What is the area of this shape?
Dovator [93]

Answer:

The area of this shape equals 30cm^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram, we can see that this shape is a parallelogram  (since opposite sides are equal to each other). The formula for the area of the parallerlogram is as follows:

Area = bh (where "b" is the base, and "h" is the height).

And so we get...

Area = bh = (10)(3) = 30cm^{2}

Since line t is a transversal line all angle which are perpendicular with 63 will equal to the same value (63) and also line m is a straight line where it’s total will be 180

So,
3x + 2x + 63 = 180
5x + 63 = 180
5x = 180 - 63
5x = 117
Divide by 5 throughout
