Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

To find "x", we need to isolate it. This means move "x" to the left side, and everything else to the right side.

When moving a number, do its reverse operation to the entire equation.

x + 9 = 2x - 3

x - 2x + 9 = 2x - 2x - 3 Subtract 2x from both sides

-x + 9 = -3

-x + 9 - 9 = -3 - 9 Subtract 9 from both sides

-x = -12

-x/-1 = -12/-1 Divide both sides by -1 to get rid of the negatives

x = 12 Final answer

Check your answer. Split the equation for the left and right sides. Substitute "x" for the answer "12".

LS: (left side)

x + 9

= 12 + 9 Add

= 21

RS: (right side)

2x - 3

= 2(12) - 3 Multiply before subtracting

= 24 - 3 Subtract

= 21

Both sides equal to 21 when "x" is 12.

LS = RS left side equals right side

Therefore the answer is correct.

Answer:

$\large\boxed{A=153\ cm^2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the picture.

We have

square with side length a = 9

trapezoid with base lengths b₁ = 9 and b₂ = 6 and the height length h = 6

right triangle with legs lengths l₁ = 3 + 6 = 9 and l₂ = 6

The formula of an area of a square

$A=a^2$

Substitute:

$A_I=9^2=81\ cm^2$

The formula of an area of a trapezoid:

$A=\dfrac{b_1+b_2}{2}\cdot h$

Substitute:

$A_{II}=\dfrac{9+6}{2}\cdot6=\dfrac{15}{2\!\!\!\!\diagup_1}\cdot6\!\!\!\!\diagup^3=(15)(3)=45\ cm^2$

The formula of an area of a right triangle:

$A=\dfrac{l_1l_2}{2}$

Substitute:

$A_{III}=\dfrac{(9)(6)}{2}=\dfrac{54}{2}=27\ cm^2$

The area of the shape:

$A=A_I+A_{II}+A_{III}\\\\A=81+45+27=153\ cm^2$
