(5x+2) and {3(x+14)} what is

Mathematics
1 answer:
Phoenix [80]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x=20

Reorder the terms:

(2 + 5x) = 3(x + 14)

Remove parenthesis around (2 + 5x)

2 + 5x = 3(x + 14)

Reorder the terms:

2 + 5x = 3(14 + x)

2 + 5x = (14 * 3 + x * 3)

2 + 5x = (42 + 3x)

Solving

2 + 5x = 42 + 3x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.

2 + 5x + -3x = 42 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 5x + -3x = 2x

2 + 2x = 42 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0

2 + 2x = 42 + 0

2 + 2x = 42

Add '-2' to each side of the equation.

2 + -2 + 2x = 42 + -2

Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0

0 + 2x = 42 + -2

2x = 42 + -2

Combine like terms: 42 + -2 = 40

2x = 40

Divide each side by '2'.

x = 20

Simplifying

x = 20

Frank cut a 52 inch string into 3 pieces. The first piece is 20 inches long. The second piece is at least 12 inches long, but no
Eddi Din [679]
We need to figure out how much string would be left, after taking away the first two pieces.
We know that the first piece is 20 inches long, so we can say that there is 52-20 inches left, or 32 inches.

The second piece is between 12 and 18 inches, meaning that there would be between 32-12 and 32-18 inches left for the third piece, or 20 and 14 inches. This means that the third piece would be at least 14 inches long, but no more than 20, since we don’t have more string than that (20+12+20=52, and 20+14+18=52)

So we can say that x is greater or equal to 14, but less than or equal to 20, or:

14<=x<=20 (“<=“ is written like a normal “<“ sign with a line _ right under it)

What fraction is 1 yard 2 feet and 6 inches
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

Make sure you convert these numbers into one unit. Convert everything to yard. Just convert the feet and inches in yard since it's the biggest unit, and then add them together. You should get a fraction not a whole number.

Which equation has a slope
Dominik [7]
All the choices are in the slope-intercept form where,

y=mx+b

so, the number before the x is the slope. The given slope is -34. We just have to look for the -34 number before the x. So mong the choices, it is the letter a choice that has the slope -34. So the answer is A.
