Hi!

<h3>Let's do the first step (add 2x). </h3>

5 + 3x + 2x = -2x + 2x + 9

<em>5 + 5x = 9</em>

<h3>Our goal is to isolate x on one side, so the next step would be to subtract 5 (or add -5).</h3>

5 + -5 + 5x = 9 + -5

<u><em>5x = 4</em></u>

<h2>The answer is B. add -5</h2><h3><em>And if you want to finish solving, you would divide by 5 on both sides.</em></h3>

5x/5 = 4/5

x = 0.8

Hope this helps! :)

Round 389,422 to the ten thousand
frosja888 [35]
To round 389,422 to the ten thousand, you need to go to the second number which is 8 and round it to the right. To the right of 8 is 9 so if a number is more than 5 you round 8 to 9. Then all the numbers after 8 turn into zeros

So... your answer is:

390,000

Answer:

The length of one side of the square is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of any given shape is all of the sides added together. So, the perimeter of the triangle is 5x + 4x + 3x. Added together, 12x.

The perimeter of the square is (x + 2)*4. Distributed, it's 4x + 8. Since we know they're equal, set it up like this:

12x = 4x + 8

You then find that x = 1. Plug that into one side of the square, x + 2, to get 3.
