For the equation to work, you have to have the same number on both sides of the equal sign
so to find ?, you can do:
13 - 2 = 12 - ? Simplify
11 = 12 - ? Subtract 12 on both sides
-1 = - ? Multiply -1 on both sides
1 = ?
Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
-8 is a negative number for example if you have -8 and you wanna get it to 0 you add 8 you don't have to do that with 7 it's a "positive" number
The area of a rectangle is length*width.
The length of this 3x and the width is 2x-3. This means that, to find the area, you need to multiply 3x and 2x-3.
Start by writing out this equation:
A=l*w
Then, plug in your given values:
A= 3x*2x-3 (you can also write it as A= 3*x*2*x-3)
Then, following the order of operations, you start by multiplying. This makes your equation become A = 6x^2 -3. (^2 means squared). It turns into this because 3 * 2 is 6 and x * x is x^2 and you still haven’t used the 3 yet.
After this, there is nothing more that you can do to simplify the equation. Therefore, the area is 6x^2 - 3.
I hope this helped!
