Answer:

x = 3 & x =- 2

Step-by-step explanation:

|4x - 2| = 10

separate this into 2 equations a positive and a negative

4x-2 =10    and 4x-2 = -10

add 2 to each side

4x-2+2 =10+2     4x-2 +2 = -10 +2

4x =12                4x = -8

divide by 4

4x/4 = 12/4         4x/4 = -8/4

x =3                 x=-2

1. Solve for x, 5 (2x + 3) + 3 (x - 4) = 25 And one more question 2. The perimeter of a rectangle is 40m. The length of the rect
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 5(2x + 3) + 3(x -4) = 25

Use distributive property

5*2x + 5 *3 + 3*x - 3*4 = 25

10x + 15 + 3x - 12 = 25

Add like terms

10x + 3x +15 - 12 = 25

13x + 3 = 25

Subtract 3 form both sides

13x = 25 - 3

13x = 22

x = 22/13

x = 1\frac{9}{13}

2) Breadth = b m

Length = 5b - 4

Perimeter of rectangle = 40 m

2*(length + breadth) = 40    { Plug in the values of breadth & length}

2* (5b - 4 + b) = 40

2 * ( 6b - 4 ) = 40  

2*6b - 2 *4 = 40

12b - 8 = 40  { add 8 to both sides}

12b - 8 + 8 = 40 + 8

   12b = 48  { divide both sides by 12}

  12b/12 = 48/12

b = 4 m

Breadth = 4m

Length = 5*4 - 4 = 20 - 4 = 16 m
