Answer:

The correct answer is x = 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we first must recognize that DE + EF = DF.

From this information, we can set up the following equation when we substitute in the given values:

DE + EF = DF

(4x-1) + 9 = 9x - 22

Our first step is going to be to combine like terms on the left side of the equation.  This is modeled below:

4x - 1 + 9 = 9x - 22

4x + 8 = 9x - 22

Then, we should subtract 4x from both sides of the equation.

8 = 5x - 22

Now, we can add 22 to both sides of the equation.

30 = 5x

Finally, we can divide both sides by 5.

x = 6

Therefore, the correct answer is x = 6.

Hope this helps!

Find the value of x. Show work if you can
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

number of side = n =7

Sum of all the angles of  given polygon = (n -2)*180 = 5 *180 = 900

x + 140 +133 +145 + 117 + 119 + 125 = 900

                                             x +  779 = 900

                                                    x     = 900 - 779

x = 121

What is 2x+19 but dont use factors
blondinia [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you are solving for the equation 2x + 19 = 0, the steps are as follows.

2x+19=0

2x = - 19 (Move the 19 over to the other side)

x = - 9 1/2 (divide both sides by 2 to get x by itself.)
