<span>1)   3x-2=x+10


</span><span>Now, lets solve this step-by-step.
</span><span>
3x - 2 = x + 10
-x             -x
</span><span>
</span><span>3x - x = 2x                                2x - 2 = 10
</span><span>
</span><span>2x - 2 = 10
</span>2x - 2+2 = 10+2          The inverse operation helps isolate the variable. 
<span>
2x = 12

2x/2 = 12/2

x = 12/2
x = 6</span><span>

Answer: x = 6

2) x + 4 = 19 - 2x </span>

We can solve this much faster

x + 4 = 19 - 2x
                  +2x

x+2x = 3x

3x + 4 = 19
      -4     -4

19-4 = 15

3x= 15
3x/3 = 15/3
x= 5

Answer: x = 5

3) 
<span>8x - 20 = x + 15

Much faster now!!

8x - 20 = x + 15
               -x
8x-x = 7x

7x - 20 = 15
      +20   +20
15+20 = 35

7x = 35
7x/7 = 35/7
x = 35/7
x = 5

Answer: x= 5</span>

topjm [15]

Answer:

the actual distance is 1800 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportion states that the two fractions or ratios are equal.

Let x be the actual distance.

As per the statement:

Reggie was looking at a map of the school the scale shows that 1 inch equals 150 ft.

⇒1 inch = 150 ft.

if the distance between his classroom in the cafeteria measures 12 in on the map.

by definition of proportions we have;

\frac{1}{150} = \frac{12}{x}

By cross multiply we have;

x = 12 \cdot 150 = 1,800 ft

Therefore, the actual distance is 1800 ft.
