Simplify each term.
2x/3+8+2x/3=4

Add 2x/3 and 2x/3 to get 2(2x/3).
2(2x/3)+8=4

Simplify.
4x/3+8=4

Since 8 does not contain the variable to solve for, move it to the right-hand side of the equation by subtracting 8 from both sides.
4x/3=−8+4

Add −8 and 4 to get −4.
4x/3=−4

Multiply both sides of the equation by 3.
4x=−4⋅(3)

Multiply −4 by 3 to get −12.
4x=−12

Divide each term in the equation by 4.
x=−3

x is equal to -3

The length of each side of a regular pentagon is increased by 8 inches, so the perimeter is now 65 inches. What is the original

evablogger [386]

Here as the Pentagon is regular so it's all sides will be of equal length . And if we assume It's each side be s , then it's perimeter is going to be (s+s+s+s+s) = 5s.And as here , each side is increased by 8 inches and then it's perimeter is 65 inches , so we got that it's side after increament is (s+8) inches and original length is s inches . And if it's each side is (s+8) inches , so it's perimeter will be 5(s+8) and as it's equal to 65 inches . So , 5(s+8) = 65
