Answer:
You forgot to post your mistake.
Step-by-step explanation:
3px = 2q(r-5x)
distribute
2qr - 10qx
3px = 2qr - 10qx
To solve for x
add 10qx to both sides
3px + 10qx = 2qr
factor out x
x(3p+10q) = 2qr
divide both sides by 3p+10q to isolate x
x = 2qr / <span>(3p+10q)

Answer:
132 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the area of a triangle is 1/2 * b * h. B stands for base and h stands for height. 1/2 multiplied by the base, 10, is 5. We then multiply 5 by 12 which is 60. Let's look at the rectangle now. The area of a rectangle is length by width. The length is 12ft and the width is 6ft. 12 * 6 = 72. 72+60=132 square feet.
First, it is important to understand that any equation that is x=some number is just a vertical line that hits the x-axis at the given number. For example, x=-2 would be a vertical line hitting the x-axis at -2. Therefore, the line we are trying to identify would also be vertical (and have the form x=some number) because we know the lines are parallel. Then, since we're given the point (-5,4), we know the line needs to hit the x-axis at -5, therefore the equation would be x=-5.
I hope this helps.
