White raven [17]3 years ago

Okay its really easy. equations, you just flip then around like if you have 2x+16=6x, you would subtract 2x from both sides.
 
16=6x-2x
16=4x
16/4 = x   (divide with 4)
4 = x

how you check is you plug in.

2(4)+16=6(4)
8+16 = 24

There you go!

It all depends on the math question but usually you solve for x, then check it. Plug x back in and see if it works. But it all depends on the math problem

We can see on this graph that the triangle has legs of x and 6 with a hypotenuse of 10 and we can use Pythagoreans theorem to find the unknown side.
Pythagoreans theorem: a^2+b^2=c^2, where a and b are the legs of the triangle and c, is the hypotenuse 

x^2+6^2=10^2 Plugin a=x, b=6, and c=10. Now let us solve for x 

x^2+36=100 Square each individual term 

x^2+=100+36 Subtract 36 from both sides 

x^2=64 Combine like terms 

sqrt(2)=sqrt(64) Take the square root of both sides 

x = 8 Simplify the square root 

So our answer is x = 8 
The ladder touches the 8 feet mark on the wall.
