Simplify 3x - 5 + 12x - 4x + 14 to 11x + 9

11x + 9 = 86

Subtract 9 from both sides

11x = 86 - 9

Simplify 86 - 9 to 77

11x = 77

Divide both sides by 11

x = 77/11

Simplify 77/11 to 7

<u>x = 7</u>

Here you go
First collect like terms
3x+12x-4x-5+14 = 86
15x-4x+9=86
11x+9=86
Transpose +9 to the R.H.S
11x=86-9
11x=77
Divide both sides by the coefficient of x(11)
X=77÷11
X=7
hope it'll help you

Michael cuts a piece of wood for a project. The first cut is shown and can be represented by the equation . The second cut needs
Verdich [7]
Short Answer: A
Remark

The second cut is going to have the same slope as the original line. The lines are parallel.

Step One
You need to find the slope. That is the main part of this problem. You can pick any 2 points on the graph to do that.

<em>Point one</em> 
(- 11, 10) That point is on the upper left of the line

<em>Point Two</em>
The y intercept is a handy point in this question. It is right on the y axis. Each square counts as 2, so it is at (0,6)

<em>Formula</em>
slope = m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

<em>Givens</em>
y2 = 10
y1 = 6
x2 = -12    Each square counts as 2 in the x direction.
x1 = 0

<u>Substitute and solve.</u>
m = (10 - 6) / (-12 - 0)
m = 4/ - 12
m = - 1/3

Step Two
Find the y intercept of the new line using the given point. 

So far what we have is  
y = (-1/3)x + b
The point used for the second line is (0,-2)
-2 = (-1/3)*0 + b 
b = - 2

Answer
The second line is
y = (-1/3)x - 2

A rectangular parking lot at the megamall is 7/10 mile long and 1/4 mile wide. How much fencing is needed to enclose the lot?
iris [78.8K]
Greetings!

"<span>A rectangular parking lot at the mega-mall is 7/10 mile long and 1/4 mile wide. How much fencing is needed to enclose the lot?"...

This question is essentially asking to solve for the perimeter. The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is: 
</span>2(l+w)

Input the information we already know:
2(7/10+1/4)
Find A common denominator.
2(14/20+5/20)
Simplify.
2(19/20)
2/1(19/20)
38/20
Reduce to Lowest Terms.
=19/10
or
=1 9/10

1 9/10 miles of fencing will be required to enclose the entire lot.

Hope this helps.
