Answer:
Width=28 1/3 Length=51 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Create an equation
x+(2x-5)=80
2. Solve
x+(2x-5)=80
3x-5=80
3x-5+5=80+5
3x/3=85/3
x=28 1/3
So, if x=28 1/3
85/3x2=170/3
56 2/3-5
So, Length=51 2/3
Answer:
a=7/2
Step-by-step explanation:
a^2-2a+2a-4-a^2+2a+3a+6=3a+9
You want to solve for "a"
1. Mover all terms on the right side to the left side setting this equation to zero.
2. Combine Like Terms
3. Divide to isolate your "a"
Answer:
12x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
To find what the expression equals, you can collect like terms. This means to do the operations (add or subtract) the numbers that have the same variables.
(8x + 5) + (4x - 3) Remove brackets to add a binomial (2-term brackets)
= 8x + 5 + 4x - 3 Collect like terms
= 8x + 4x + 5 - 3 I rearranged so you can see which terms are alike
= 12x + 5 - 3 Collected like terms with "x" (8x + 4x = 12x)
= 12x + 2 Collected like terms with no variables (5 - 3 = 2)
Therefore (8x + 5) + (4x - 3) is equal to 12x + 2.
If you want, you can also find another equal expression by factoring. Since "12x" and "2" are both divisible by the factor 2, you can <em>take it out</em> and put the other numbers in a bracket.
12x + 2
= 2(12x/2 + 2/2)
= 2(6x + 1) This is equal, but in factored form.
