5(8x-2)=270
distribute the 5 into 8x-2
5*8x-5*2=270
you get
40x-10=270
combine like terms
40x=280
divide both sides by 40 to find x
x=7

A rectangle has a perimeter of 12 centimeters and a height of 5 centimeters. What is the length of the base?
Gwar [14]

Answer:

1 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the formula for perimeter is<u> 2(l+w) or l+l+w+w</u>

We know that the height is 5 cm so that means <em><u>w= 5</u></em> also that there is 5 cm on both sides of the rectangle. So 5+5=10 so that means that the length of the rectangle is <em><u>1 cm</u></em> if you add the length together you 2 when you add the width you get 10. <em>10+2=12.</em>

Solve the following:<br>a) 2(5x – 3) = 24<br>b) 5(2x + 1) = 50​
likoan [24]

Answer:

x = 3 and x = \frac{9}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

2(5x - 3) = 24 ( divide both sides by 2 )

5x - 3 = 12 ( add 3 to both sides )

5x = 15 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 3

(b)

5(2x + 1) = 50 ( divide both sides by 5 )

2x + 1 = 10 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

2x = 9 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = \frac{9}{2}
