Objective: Solve 2x + 3 = 5x - 42 for x.
Step 1: Subtract 3 from both sides.
2x + 3 = 5x - 42
2x = 5x - 45
Step 2: Subtract 5x from both sides.
2x = 5x - 45
-3x = -45
Step 4: Divide both sides by -3.
-3x = -45
x = 15
Answer:
x = 15
Correct question :
If the perimeters of each shape are equal, which equation can be used to find the value of x? A triangle with base x + 2, height x, and side length x + 4. A rectangle with length of x + 3 and width of one-half x. (x + 4) + x + (x + 2) = one-half x + (x + 3) (x + 2) + x + (x + 4) = 2 (one-half x) + 2 (x + 3) 2 (x) + 2 (x + 2) = 2 (one-half x) + 2 (x + 3) x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 2 (x + 3 and one-half)
Answer: (x + 2) + x + (x + 4) = 2 (one-half x) + 2 (x + 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
A triangle with base x + 2, height x, and side length x + 4 - - - -
b = x + 2 ; a = x ; c = x + 4
Perimeter (P) of a triangle :
P = a + b + c
P =( x + 2) + x + (x + 4) - - - (1)
A rectangle with length of x + 3 and width of one-half x
l = x + 3 ; w = 1/2 x
Perimeter of a rectangle (P) = 2(l+w)
P = 2(x+3) + 2(1/2x)
If perimeter of each same are the same ; then;
(1) = (2)
(x + 2) + x + (x + 4) = 2(x+3) + 2(1/2x)
Step-by-step explanation:
f×0.2 = 182 ft²
20% is a factor 0.2, as it is 20 of 100.
