Answer:

14/3

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x−3)+2=1(2x+1)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

5(x−3)+2=1(2x+1)

(5)(x)+(5)(−3)+2=(1)(2x)+(1)(1)(Distribute)

5x+−15+2=2x+1

(5x)+(−15+2)=2x+1(Combine Like Terms)

5x+−13=2x+1

5x−13=2x+1

Step 2: Subtract 2x from both sides.

5x−13−2x=2x+1−2x

3x−13=1

Step 3: Add 13 to both sides.

3x−13+13=1+13

3x=14

Step 4: Divide both sides by 3.

3x/3=14/3

14/3

Anvisha [2.4K]

Step 1

Find out how many chairs are already taken. Multiply the tables by the chairs

$6*6=36$

Step 2

By using proportion find the percentage

$\frac{150}{100} =\frac{36}{x} \\ \\ 150*x=36*100\\\\ x= \frac{3600}{150} \\ \\ x=24$

therefore

By using these measurements and drawing out a triangle, you have two sides “a” and “b” and are trying to find “c”. using pythagorean theorem you can determine that “a^2 + b^2 = c^2”. plug in your distances (20 and 14) and you get 24.4 as your distance.
