Supplementary means they add up to 180 degrees.

2x+12 + x = 180
3x+12 = 180
3x = 168
x = 56

Simplify the expression: w2 + 7w2 + 8w - 5 + 9 - 2w2

ololo11 [35]

<h3> $6w^2 +8w +4$ is the simplified expression</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

We have to simplify

$w^2 + 7w^2 + 8w -5+9-2w^2$

We can simplify the above expression by combining the like terms

Like terms are terms that has same variable with same exponent and same or different coefficient

From given,

$w^2 + 7w^2 + 8w -5+9-2w^2$

Group the like terms

$w^2 + 7w^2 -2w^2 + 8w - 5+9\\\\Combine\ the\ like\ terms\\\\6w^2 +8w -5+9\\\\Combine\ the\ constants\\\\6w^2 +8w +4$

Thus the given expression is simplified

Which of the following is(are) the solution(s) to |5x+2|=8 ?

slega [8]

Answer:

x = 6/5 or x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve:

|5x+2|=8

We know that |u|=a the u = a and u = -a

Now solving:

|5x+2|=8

5x +2 = 8 or 5x +2 = -8

5x = 8-2 or 5x = -8-2

5x = 6 or 5x = -10

x = 6/5 or x = -10/5

x = 6/5 or x = -2

So, x = 6/5 or x = -2

A rectangle is twice as long as it is wide the area is 72 find the length

Bingel [31]

Area=lw
l=2w
aera=2l^2
72=area

72=2l^2
divide both sides by 2
36=l^2
sqrt both sides
6=l
length=6 units
