3(x - 5) – 3 = 5(x - 2) + 2x

Mathematics
1 answer:
Arlecino [84]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

x=−2

Step-by-step explanation:       Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3(x−5)−3=5(x−2)+2x

(3)(x)+(3)(−5)+−3=(5)(x)+(5)(−2)+2x(Distribute)

3x+−15+−3=5x+−10+2x

(3x)+(−15+−3)=(5x+2x)+(−10)(Combine Like Terms)

3x+−18=7x+−10

3x−18=7x−10

Step 2: Subtract 7x from both sides.

3x−18−7x=7x−10−7x

−4x−18=−10

Step 3: Add 18 to both sides.

−4x−18+18=−10+18

−4x=8

Step 4: Divide both sides by -4.

−4x

−4

=

8

−4

x=−2

Points J, K, L, and M are midpoints of the sides of the rectangle EFGH. Prove that quadrilateral JKLM is a rhombus by finding th
GaryK [48]
Distance from J to F = b
D from F to K = a
a^2+b^2=JK^2

D from K to G = a
D from G to L = b
a^2+b^2=KL^2

D from L to H = b
D from H to M = a
a^2+b^2=LM^2

D from M to E = a
D from E to J = b
a^2+b^2=MJ^2

For each side, I used the Pythagorean theorem (a^2+b^2=c^2) to find the length. Since every side of the quadrilateral squared (aka to the power of two) equals a^2+b^2, every side squared equals each other. So JK^2=KL^2=LM^2=MJ^2. If you take the square root of each side of the equal signs, you’re left with JK=KL=LM=MJ. In order for a quadrilateral to be a rhombus, each side must be equivalent. Each side in this quadrilateral is equivalent, therefore it is a rhombus.

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

The correct answer is B) 1/9

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this answer, you need to take the fraction that answered it on the first try and subtract the number that changed their mind.

5/18 - 1/6

In order to complete this operation, you need to give them common denominators.

5/18 - 3/18 = 2/18

And we can simplify that answer.

2/18 = 1/9
