5x + (6+x) = -18 - x
6x + 6 = -18 - x
6x + x = -18 - 6 
7x = -24
x = -24/7

N = -3
5n + n + 6 = -18 - 2n
6n + 6 = -18 - 2n
-6 to both sides
6n = -24 - 2n
+2n to both sides
8n = -24
divide 8 to both sides
n = -3

What is the expanded form of 3x(x+3)^2?
Dominik [7]
We need to expand the square binomial and then multiply:
<span>3x(x + 3)^2
= 3x(x + 3)</span>(x + 3<span>)
= 3x(x^2 + 6x + 9)
= 3x^3 + 18x^2 + 27x</span>

5/8(x-1/3)=5/12 can someone help me figure out what x is?
eimsori [14]
Solve for x:(5 (x - 1/3))/(8) = 5/12
Put each term in x - 1/3 over the common denominator 3: x - 1/3 = (3 x)/3 - 1/3:(5 (3 x)/3 - 1/3)/(8) = 5/12
(3 x)/3 - 1/3 = (3 x - 1)/3:(5 (3 x - 1)/3)/(8) = 5/12
3×8 = 24:(5 (3 x - 1))/24 = 5/12
Multiply both sides of (5 (3 x - 1))/24 = 5/12 by 24/5:(24×5 (3 x - 1))/(5×24) = (24×5)/(5×12)
(24×5)/(5×12) = (24×5)/(5×12):(24×5 (3 x - 1))/(5×24) = (24×5)/(5×12)
(24×5 (3 x - 1))/(5×24) = (5×24)/(5×24)×(3 x - 1) = 3 x - 1:3 x - 1 = (24×5)/(5×12)
(24×5)/(5×12) = 5/5×24/12 = 24/12:3 x - 1 = 24/12
The gcd of 24 and 12 is 12, so 24/12 = (12×2)/(12×1) = 12/12×2 = 2:3 x - 1 = 2
Add 1 to both sides:3 x + (1 - 1) = 1 + 2
1 - 1 = 0:3 x = 2 + 1
2 + 1 = 3:3 x = 3
Divide both sides of 3 x = 3 by 3:(3 x)/3 = 3/3
3/3 = 1:x = 3/3
3/3 = 1:Answer:  x = 1

2x + y =8 and 4x -2y = 6
irakobra [83]

Answer:

x=1.25 and y=-5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+y=-8, 2x=-y-8 or 4x=-2y-16. Plug this value in the second equation, we have - 2y-16-2y=6, y=-5.5. Plugging this in any equation we have, x=1.25

Regular hexagon FGHIJK shares a common shares a common center with square ABCD on a coordinate plane .
timurjin [86]

Answer:

<h3>"The answer is the yellow lines in the attached figure. </h3>

Step-by-step explanation: As shown in the attached figure, regular hexagon FGHIJK and square ABCD shares common centre on the co-ordinate plane and AB || FG.

We are to find the line across which the combined figure will reflect onto itself.

In the attached figure, we see two lines which are yellow in colour. We can easily detect that the figure will be reflected onto itself if these two lines acts as a mirror separately.

Hence these yellow lines are the required lines."
