What value of x makes this equation true?

Mathematics

Answer:

-1.8 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

12(x+3)=-8x

Distribute

12x +36 = -8x

Subtract 12x from each side

12x-12x +36 = -8x-12x

36 = -20x

Divide each side by -20

36/-20 = -20x/-20

-9/5 = x

Changing to decimal form

-1.8 =x

Answer:

c. -1.8

Step-by-step explanation:

12(x+3) = -8x

12x + 36 = -8x

20x = -36

x = -36/20

x = -1.8

Indicate whether the statement is true of false.
yawa3891 [41]

The statement is false, as the system can have no solutions or infinite solutions.

<h3>Is the statement true or false?</h3>

The statement says that a system of linear equations with 3 variables and 3 equations has one solution.

If the variables are x, y, and z, then the system can be written as:

a_1*x + b_1*y + c_1*z = d_1\\\\a_2*x + b_2*y + c_2*z = d_2\\\\a_3*x + b_3*y + c_3*z = d_3

Now, the statement is clearly false. Suppose that we have:

a_1 = a_2 = a_3\\b_1 = b_2 = b_3\\c_1 = c_2 = c_3\\\\d_1 \neq d_2 \neq  d_3

Then we have 3 parallel equations. Parallel equations never do intercept, then this system has no solutions.

Then there are systems of 3 variables with 3 equations where there are no solutions, so the statement is false.

Find the area of a triangle with a base length of 3 units and a height of 4 units.
svetlana [45]

Answer:

6 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle can be calculated by multiplying the triangle's base by its height, and then dividing the result by 2. As an algebraic expression, this would be \frac{bh}{2}, where b is the triangle's base and h is the triangle's height. In this case, we know that b=3 and h=4. Therefore, the area of this triangle is \frac{3*4}{2} =\frac{12}{2} =6 square units. Hope this helps!
