Simplifying
12x + 10 + 3 + 8x = 0
Reorder the terms:
10 + 3 + 12x + 8x = 0
Combine like terms: 10 + 3 = 13
13 + 12x + 8x = 0
Combine like terms: 12x + 8x = 20x
13 + 20x = 0
Solving
13 + 20x = 0
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-13' to each side of the equation.
13 + -13 + 20x = 0 + -13
Combine like terms: 13 + -13 = 0
0 + 20x = 0 + -13
20x = 0 + -13
Combine like terms: 0 + -13 = -13
20x = -13
Divide each side by '20'.
x = -0.65
Simplifying
x = -0.65
This looks like common core which is never straight forward.It seems as though they are asking for the perimeter and not area,since they used feet for the distance around instead of sq.ft.
Answer:
x = 47
Step-by-step explanation:
86° and 2x° are supplementary angles, which means that added together they should equal 180° (which is a line). Aka
86 + 2x = 180 (Let's solve for x) (subtract both sides by 86 to get x on one side)
2x = 94 (divide both sides by 2 to get x by itself)
x = 47
