2+34=4(x+5)

distribute

2+34 = 4x+20

combine like terms

36 = 4x+20

subtract 20 from each side

16 = 4x

divide by 4

4 = x

Answer: x=4

Your equation states 2+34 = 4(x+5)

Let us solve the second part of the equation so it'll be even.

4(x+5)

When parentheses touch a number like that it means you need to multiply the number that the parentheses are touching, by the number(s) inside.

4 × x = 4x

4 × 5 = 20

Now let us restate the equation.

2 + 34 = 4x + 20

Now let us add the first part of the equation

2 + 34 would equal 36


36 = 4x + 20

Lets subtract 20 from each side


36 = 4x + 20

-20       -20


36 - 20 = 16

20 - 20 = 0

Now let us restate the equation

16 = 4x

Divide 4 from both sides

16 = 4x


16 ÷ 4 = 4

4x ÷ 4 = x

You're answer would be,

x = 4

Hope this helped! :D

How do I solve it because it’s really difficult
dybincka [34]

The solution of the equation is x= 3 and y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

-3x-4y = -17 and

-x-3y = -9

The system of equation can be rewritten as

3x+4y = 17 ------eq 1 and

x+3y = 9 ------ eq 2

To solve for x and y

Multiplying eq 2 by 3 we get,

3x + 9y = 27

or, 3x = 27-9y

Putting this value of x into eq 1 we get,

27-9y +4y = 17

or, -5y = 17-27

or, -5y = -10

or, y = 2

Now put y=2 in eq 2 we get,

x = 9 - 3(2)

= 3

Hence the solution is x = 3 and y = 2

e-lub [12.9K]
We have to divide 9/10 by 3/12.

if we divide by a fraction, we can instead multiply by it's inverse:

\frac{9}{12}/ \frac{3}{12}  = \frac{9}{12} * \frac{12}{3}

so now we count:

\frac{9}{12} * \frac{12}{3} =\frac{9}{1} * \frac{1}{3}=3

so we can cut exactly 3 pieces!
