Answer:
RT = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
x-2 + 4x-9 = x+5
5x-11 = x+5
subtract the x from the right side to 5x and the left side x cancels out
add 11 on the right side which cancels out and add to right side
4x = 16
divide 4x by 4 which cancels out and divide 16 by 4
x = 4
take the equation for RT = x+5
yk x = 4 so that makes 4+5 which is equal to 9
1. 3x+3y=15
-3y = -3y (subtract 3y from both sides)
3x = 15-3y

3 = 3 3 (divide each number by 3)
x = 5- y
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
2(x + 1) = 3(5 - x) + 2
Distribute,
2(x + 1) = 3(5 - x) + 2
2x + 2 = 3(5 - x) + 2
Rearrange terms,
2x + 2 = 3(5 - x) + 2
2x + 2 = 3(-x + 5) + 2
Distribute,
2x + 2 = 3(-x + 5) + 2
2x + 2 = -3x + 15 + 2
Add the numbers,
2x + 2 = -3x + 15 + 2
2x + 2 = -3x + 17
Subtract 2 from both sides,
2x + 2 = -3x + 17
2x + 2 - 2 = -3x + 17 - 2
2x = -3x + 17 - 2
2x = -3x + 15
Add 3x to both sides,
2x = -3x + 15
2x + 3x = -3x + 3x + 15
5x = -3x + 3x + 15
5x = 15
Divide both sides by the same factor (15),
5x = 15
5x/5 = 15/5
x = 15/5
x = 3
Hence, the answer is 3.
