The sum of x and 9 divided by 2 is equal to 3x

(x + 9)/2 = 3x

Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. First, multiply 2 to both sides

(x + 9)/2(2) = 3x(2)

x + 9 = 6x

Subtract x from both sides

x (-x) + 9 = 6x(-x)

9 = 5x

Isolate the x. Divide 5 from both sides

9/5 = 5x/5

x = 9/5

9/5 is your answer for x

hope this helps

Hey there,

Question : How to solve for x 5x-8=18+4,for x=6

Answer :
5x - 8 = 18 + 4
5(6) - 8 = 18 + 4
30 - 8 = 18 + 4
22 = 22
Thus we can say that 6x = 30
6x = 30
x = 30 / 6

an equilateral triangle and a regular pentagon have the same perimeter. Each side of the pentagon is 3 inches shorter than each

klemol [59]

The answer is 4.5 for the side length of the pentagon and 7.5 is the side length for the triangle because 7.5*3(3 sides) = 22.5 and 4.5*5(5 sides)= 22.5. The perimeter is 22.5
