Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest first step is to remove the brackets. Other things could be done, but they are done just because you can.

4x = 7 + 3*2x - 5*3        Just to show you more, I'll keep going.

4x = 7 + 6x - 15              Combine the minus 15 and 7

4x = 6x + 7 - 15

4x = 6x - 8                     Now add 8 to both sides. It's a toss up of what to do

4x + 8 = 6x - 8 + 8

4x + 8 = 6x                    Subtract 5x from both sides

4x - 4x + 8 = 6x - 4x

8 = 2x                             Divide by 2

x = 4

The steps usually follow this order.

Someone please help i am very confused.
Inessa [10]

Answer:

Rectangle A's length = 22 ft., Rectangle B's length = 44 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know that the length of Rectangle B is twice the length of Rectangle A, we know that 2*(3x + 7) = Rectangle B's length.

We must set this equation to the dimensions already given for Rectangle B, which gives us 2(3x + 7) = 2 (5x - 3).

Using the distributive property gives us 6x + 14 = 10x - 6 and solving for x gives us x = 5.

We must plug five into the original dimensions to find that the lengths of Rectangles A and B are 22 feet and 44 feet respectively.
