Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

The~answer~you~should~be~getting~is : x=\frac{11}{4}

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation:

1+(-3)(x)+(-3)(-5)=5x+-6   (Distribute)

1+-3x+15=5x+-6

(-3x)+(1+15)=5x-6  (Combine~the~like~terms)

-3x+16=5x-6

Step 2: Subtract 5x from both sides:

-3x+16=5x=5x-6-5x

-8x+16=-6

Step 3: Subtract 16 from both sides:

-8x+16-16=-6-16

-8x=-22

Step 4: Divide both sides by -8:

\frac{-8x}{-8} \frac{-22}{-8}

x=\frac{11}{4}

Answer is : x=\frac{11}{4}

Answer:

x= 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

simplify so you can isolate x quicker: 2x-5=5x-6

subtract 2x from both sides: -5=3x-6

add 6 to both sides: 1=3x

divide both side by the 3 to isolate x: 1/3=x

Write a paragraph proof.
worty [1.4K]
It is given that line segment BC is congruent to line segment EC and that line segment AC is congruent to DC. Because of the vertical angles theorem, angle BCA is equal to angle DCE. Therefore, triangles CBA AND DEC are congruent by SAS. Using CPCTC, BA is equal to ED.
