Answer:

x=1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-5(x-2)=12x+4-x

4x-5x+10=12x-x+4

-x+10=11x+4

-x-11x+10=4

-12x+10=4

-12x=4-10

-12x=-6

12x=6

x=6/12

simplify

x=1/2

Answer: x = 1/2

Explanation :

First write the equation as you see it:

4x-5(x-2)=12x+4-x

Next do the math in the parentheses:

4x-5x+10=12x-x+4

Combine the x’s:

-12x+10=4

Switch the 10 and put it on the other side:

-12x=4-10

Change to negative to positive:

12x=6

Divide:

x=6/12

Simplify

x=1/2

Thus, you answer is x = 1/2

Hope this helps! :)

Leno4ka [110]
Since she has painted 60% of her bedroom so far, 40% must remain. In order to know how many square feet that is, we take the total amount of square feet she needs to paint and multiply it by 0.4

45*0.4 = 18 square feet

MARKING BRAINLIESTTT!!! PLUS 30PTS EARNED!! HELP ASAPP PLZZZ!!!!
Elza [17]

Answer:

  1.  9 < s < 17

  2.  5 < MN < 19

  3.  AD > BD

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The triangle inequality tells you the sum of any two sides of a triangle must exceed the length of the other side. (Some versions say, "must be not less than ..." rather than "must exceed.") In practice, this means two things:

  • the sum of the shortest two sides is greater than the length of the longest side
  • the length of any side lies between the sum and the difference of the other two sides

Here, we can use the latter fact to write the desired inequality. The difference of the given sides is 13 -4 = 9; their sum is 13 +4 = 17. The third side must lie between 9 and 17. If that side length is designated "s", then ...

  9 < s < 17

(If you don't mind a "triangle" that looks like a line segment, you can use ≤ instead of <.)

__

2. Same as (1) using different numbers.

  12 -7 < MN < 12 +7

  5 < MN < 19

__

3. Side CD is congruent to itself, and side CA is shown congruent to side CB. This means the requirements of the Hinge Theorem are met. That theorem tells you the longer side is opposite the greater angle:

  AD > BD
