Simplifying
9x + -3(x + 8) = 6x + -24

Reorder the terms:
9x + -3(8 + x) = 6x + -24
9x + (8 * -3 + x * -3) = 6x + -24
9x + (-24 + -3x) = 6x + -24

Reorder the terms:
-24 + 9x + -3x = 6x + -24

Combine like terms: 9x + -3x = 6x
-24 + 6x = 6x + -24

Reorder the terms:
-24 + 6x = -24 + 6x

Add '24' to each side of the equation.
-24 + 24 + 6x = -24 + 24 + 6x

Combine like terms: -24 + 24 = 0
0 + 6x = -24 + 24 + 6x
6x = -24 + 24 + 6x

Combine like terms: -24 + 24 = 0
6x = 0 + 6x
6x = 6x

Add '-6x' to each side of the equation.
6x + -6x = 6x + -6x

Combine like terms: 6x + -6x = 0
0 = 6x + -6x

Combine like terms: 6x + -6x = 0
0 = 0

0 = 0

The outside of a picture frame measures 14 in and 20 in 196in^2 of the picture shows find the thickness of the frame
LuckyWell [14K]
The described picture frame can be visualized into two separate parts. The first area is equal to the area using the outermost dimensions for the length and width. 
             Area = Length x Height
              Area = (20 in) x (14 in) 
              Area = 280 in²

We are given that the area is only equal to 192 in². We subtract this value from the computed area.
         Difference = 280 in² - 192 in²
               difference = 88 in²

This area is equal to the area of the hollow space inside the frame. That is equal to,
      height = 20 in - 2x
      length = 14 in - 2x

The area,
               88 = (20 - 2x)(14 - 2x)

Simplify the right hand side of the equation.
             88 = 280 - 68x + 4x²

Divide the equation by 4,
            22 = 70 - 17x + x²

Transposing,
                x² - 17x - 48 = 0
The factors of the equation is 58.2. 

Thus, the thickenss is equal to 58.2 in

If 4x^2 - 100 = 0, the roots of the equation are
ololo11 [35]
4x^2-100=0 \ \ \ \ \ \ |+100 \\
4x^2=100 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \  |\div 4 \\
x^2=25 \\
x=\pm \sqrt{25} \\
x=\pm 5 \\
x=-5 \hbox{ or } x=5

The answer is (3) -5 and 5.

Whats 14.635 rounded to the nearest cent?
Nutka1998 [239]
The cents are .635 and the greatest cent is 6. So, when it is rounded to the greatest value like estimating it will be 14.600 or 14.6. As easy as that. :)
