Answer: x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Distribute the 3 into the parenthesis

     3x - 18 + 6 = 5x - 6

2. Combine like terms (on the left side of the equation

    3x - 12 = 5x - 6

3. Add 6 to both sides to get rid of the -6 on the right side

    3x - 6 = 5x

4. Subtract 3x from both sides to get rid of the 3x from the left side

    -6 = 2x

5. Divide both sides by 2

    -3 = x

Answer:

x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3(x−6)+6=5x−6

(3)(x)+(3)(−6)+6=5x+−6(Distribute)

3x+−18+6=5x+−6

(3x)+(−18+6)=5x−6(Combine Like Terms)

3x+−12=5x−6

3x−12=5x−6

Step 2: Subtract 5x from both sides.

3x−12−5x=5x−6−5x

−2x−12=−6

Step 3: Add 12 to both sides.

−2x−12+12=−6+12

−2x=6

Step 4: Divide both sides by -2.

−2x

−2

=

6

−2

x=−3

A juice stand sells smoothies in cone-shaped cups that are 8 in. tall. The regular size has a 4 in. diameter. The jumbo size has
nirvana33 [79]
All cone-shaped cups have the same height in 8 inches. They just differ in their diameters. To solve for the volume of the regular and jumbo sizes, let's use the formula for the volume of cone

V = (1/3)*pi*(r^2)*h

r is just the half of the diameter, h is the height which is equal to 8

Regular size:
V = (1/3)*pi*((4/2)^2)*8
V = 33.5 cube inches

Jumbo size:
V = (1/3)*pi*((8/2)^2)*8
V = 134.0 cube inches

The given line passes through the points (0, −3) and (2, 3).
Fed [463]
If the 2 lines are parallel, their slopes are the same.

The slope of both is  
          3+3
m = ---------- = 3
          2 - 0

If the new line <span>passes through the point (−1, −1), then the equation in point slope form is:

y+1 = 3(x+1).</span>

Which property states that for all real numbers, x, y and z, if x = y and y = z, then x = z ?
Leto [7]

Answer:

The transitive property of equality

Step-by-step explanation:

The transitive property states if a=b and b=c then a=c. If two things are equal and one of those two things is equal to another thing, then they all must be equal.
