Well first lets do the distributive property so the left side is already done 28, now the right side -4 (2x+7) when you do that you get -8x-28. So now we have 28=-8x-28. So now I would move the -28 to the left side and when you move stuff to the other side you change the sign so the sign will be positive 28+28 which is 56. Now you have 56=-8x. Now divide both side by -8 to have -7=x
Your Answer: x = -7
Answer:
shortest side = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is a bit ambiguous. Do you mean (3/4) x or do you mean 3/(4x)?
I'll take it to be the first one.
(x + 3) + 4(x - 13) + (3/4)x = 3x + 6 Remove the brackets on the left
x + 3 + 4x - 52 + 0.75 x = 3x + 6 Combine
5.75x - 49 = 3x + 6 Subtract 3x from both sides.
2.75x - 49 = 6 Add 49 to both sides
2.75x = 55 Divide by 2.75
x = 55/ 2.75
x = 20
Now for the shortest side
x + 3 = 23
4(x - 13) = 4(20 - 13) = 4*7 = 28
(3/4)*20 = 15
The shortest side = 15
Associative property of addition
Answer:
Area of square= side*side
So we will have,
14*14
= 196cm²
