                 2x + 1  =  2A + 3(x + A)

You want x=2 to be a solution.
So the equation will be a true statement when

                 2(2) + 1  =  2A + 3(2 + A)

                     4 + 1  =  2A + 6 + 3A

Combine like terms:  5 = 5A + 6

Subtract 6 from each side:  -1 = 5A

Divide each side by  5:     <em> -0.2  =  A</em>

A plot of land is in the shape of a triangle. If one side is x meters, a second side (5x−3) meters, and a third side is ​( 7x −
liubo4ka [24]

Given, the plot is in the shape of triangle.

First side = x meter

Second side = ( 5x-3 )meters

Third side = ( 7x-6 ) meters

Perimeter of triangle is equal to the sum of all the three sides.

Perimeter = x + (5x-3) + (7x-6)

Combine like terms by adding all the x terms together and all the constant terms together.

Perimeter = (x+5x+7x) + ( -3 -6 )

Perimeter = 13x - 9 feet ... Answer

Solve for t.<br><br> -5 − 2t = 3t
allsm [11]
T is equal to -1.
  1. <em>Add 2t to both sides of the equation.</em> -5 = 5t
  2. <em>Divide both sides of the equation by -5.</em> 1 = -t
  3. <em>Multiply both sides of the equation by -1.</em> -1 = t

Last years sales at the drive in movie theater totol 144.600. This year's sales should increase by 1/3. how much should sales in
KATRIN_1 [288]
A] Given that the last years's sales was $144,600 and this years sales should increase by 1/3. Then:
i] Amount the sales should increased by will be:
(last year's sales)*(increase)
=144,600*(1/3)
=48,200

ii] The sales in the new year will be:
(last year's sales)+(increase)
=144600+48600
=$192, 800

2] Given that the sales of hifi which included 6% tax was 205,000. The actual sales was:
Actual percentage sales=100%
percentage sales after taxation=100-6=94%
thus the  actual sales was:
(100)/(94)*205,000
=218, 085.1064

3]Given that the rate per $100 is $0.83, and the insurance was for 90000, the insurance premium will be:
(total insurance) *(unit rate)/(number of units)
plugging the values we obtain:
90000*0.83/100
$747
