Mathematics

Answer: -4

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-2(6x-3)=42

3x - 12x + 6 = 42

-9x + 6 = 42

-9x = 42 - 6

x = -36/9 = -4

Answer:

x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-2(6x-3)=42

Distribute

3x -12x+6 = 42

Combine like terms

-9x+6 = 42

Subtract 6 from each side

-9x+6-6 = 42-6

-9x = 36

Divide each side by -9

-9x/-9 = 36/-9

x = -4

What is the common denominator of (5/x^2-4) - (2/x+2) in the complex fraction (2/x-2) - (3/x^2-4)/(5/x^2-4) - (2/x+2)
PIT_PIT [208]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • common denominator: (x² -4)
  • simplified complex fraction: (2x +1)/(9 -2x)

Step-by-step explanation:

It is helpful to remember the factoring of the difference of squares:

  a² -b² = (a -b)(a +b)

__

Your denominator of (x² -4) factors as (x -2)(x +2). You will note that one of these factors is the same as the denominator in the other fraction.

It looks like you want to simplify ...

  \dfrac{\left(\dfrac{2}{x-2}-\dfrac{3}{x^2-4}\right)}{\left(\dfrac{5}{x^2-4}-\dfrac{2}{x+2}\right)}=\dfrac{\left(\dfrac{2(x+2)}{(x-2)(x+2)}-\dfrac{3}{(x-2)(x+2)}\right)}{\left(\dfrac{5}{(x-2)(x+2)}-\dfrac{2(x-2)}{(x-2)(x+2)}\right)}\\\\=\dfrac{2(x+2)-3}{5-2(x-2)}=\boxed{\dfrac{2x+1}{9-2x}}

Sum of interior angles of a convex 14-gon
just olya [345]

Answer: 2160°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of angles in a polygon is represented by the formula:

Sum = (n - 2) x 180° where n is the number of sides in the polygon

In this case, the complex polygon has 14 sides (n = 14)

So, (14 - 2) x 180°

= 12 x 180°

= 2160°

Thus, the sum of interior angles of a convex 14-gon is 2160°
