Answer x=4

Step-by-step explanation

-3x+12=x-4

12=4x-4

+4      +4

16=4x

16/4=4x/4

x=4

-3x+12=x-4

move x to the other side

sign changes from +x to -x

-3x-x+12=x-x-4

-3x-x=-4x ( combine like terms)

-4x+12=x-x-4

-4x+12=-4

move +12 to the other side

sign changes from +12 to -12

-4x+12-12=-4-12

-4x=-4-12

-4x=-16

divide both sides by -4 to get +x

-4x/-4=-16/-4

Cross out -4 and -4, divide by 4 . Then becomes -1*-1*x=x

divide by -4 for -16/-4

-16/-4=4

-4/-4=1

4*1=4

Answer:

x=4

Monica wants to measure the dimensions of her rectangular lawn. If the longer side of the lawn is (x + 3) feet and the diagonal
Juliette [100K]
Let us try and solve it analytically. We have that the side=x+3  together with the short side=s and the diagonal=x+4 satisfy the Pythagorean Theorem. Then we have that (x+4)^2=(x+3)^2+s^2. This yields s^2+x^2+6x+9=x^2+8x+16
which yields s^2=2x+7, hence a) is the correct answer.

A SQUARE PATIO HAS AN AREA OF 200 SQUARE FEET. HOW LONG IS EACH SIDE OF THE PATIO TO THE NEAREST 0.05
lara [203]
If you would like to know the length of each side of the patio, you can calculate this using the following steps:

an area ... 200 square feet
a ... the length of one side

area = a * a = a^2
200 = a^2
a = sqrt(200)
a = 14.14 feet

The correct result would be 14.14 feet.
